Hello! New here! Can someone help me authenticate

Item: Original Coach Calf Leather Body Bag
Seller: joanmm
Link: https://ph.carousell.com/p/original-coach-calf-leather-body-bag-178447983/?ref=profile&ref_referrer=/joanmm/&ref_sId=15294709
Comments: not a listing on ebay but on a "garage sale" type app

Thank you in advance!
The bag is fake. Don't buy it.

I hope you don't mind a bit of unsolicited advice. Although the bag in question is undoubtedly an obvious fake, be very careful buying designer items from sellers in the Philippines. Some of the fakes are very, VERY close, extremely difficult to authenticate and are at prices that are as much as (or more than) you can get authentic items for.

ETA: I can't recommend the seller, joanmm because at least some of the pictures in her listings are pictures stolen from other sellers on other sites.

For example, her listing here:
https://ph.carousell.com/p/original...profile&ref_referrer=/joanmm&ref_sId=15294709

Uses a picture from this seller on Poshmark:
https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Soho-6808-Signature-Black-Hobo-572cf9d2c6c79593bf009a6e

Another picture in her listing shows an ebay listing.

I have no idea what she's selling, what it looks like and whether any of her pictures are her own.

Thank you so much! I was just about to buy it now since the seller is following up. Saved me, thanks!

Hi, can someone help me authenticate this bag? Thank you.

Item: Vintage Coach Leatherware Black Leather Crossbody Shoulder Bag! #337 USA Made
Listing number: 163149237887
Seller: bataurus56
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Co...ssbody-Shoulder-Bag-337-USA-Made/163149237887
Comments:Not sure if the creed is clear enough to authenticate but it’s not a #337 as the seller stated I think, just an indication that the bag was made before the style number (9870) was used on the creed?

I looked at that one and thought to myself it was fake so I'm glad I was right. I feel like I'm getting better at spotting them but am by no means an expert. I am happy I found this site.

Thank you, BeenBurned, for your reply. As I am still learning about the creeds and their markings, I am curious about the dot, or indentation, that is on the creed under the "CO" of COACH. I've searched but not had any luck.

Has anyone seen a marking like this before, and do you know what it means, if anything?

...not sure what happened to our previous posts. Again, this is the listing:
