One more Willis for authentication, thank you.

Item: Coach Willis
Listing Number: 362483333053
Seller: gabbyandaiden987
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Co...333053?hash=item5465b0b7bd:g:68gAAOSwKA5b219V

It looks genuine although I really wish the serial number prefix was clearer, the month and year codes aren't readable. If you buy it, please post a photo of the creed and serial number when you receive it. Or maybe someone with younger eyes can read it.

I think it is G9.

The first two are genuine, the third one, the red bag, is fake. THE SAME FAKE WAS SOLD BACK IN MAY AND APPARENTLY RETURNED OR THE BUYER BACKED OUT OF THE DEAL.

The seller ahlymay49 (store name " Thi Win's Closet ") also doesn't include enough photos to authenticate her bags, and even if the red one wasn't fake and she was selling on a more trustworthy site, I wouldn't recommend buying from her. Her photos are terrible. But I've seen at least one other probable fake in her recently sold items with what looks like an always-fake J8H- serial prefix.

ETA - another fake sold last year with an invalid "X" month code in the serial number.
https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Cute-Crossbody-5a3fcf5fb7f72b7932008e10
and from a year ago, a "bundle" with a Korean fake:
https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-Coach-5990979a620ff7fabd11784f
fake serial prefix, mismatched zipper, fake color
https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-Coach-Crossbody-576a76c6f092825af80968fb
fake creed
https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Vintage-Crossbody-579212b8ea3f36e3480006b5

I'll stop there since I'm not in the mood to look at any more junk this early in the morning.

I hope you've read our warnings about buying from Poshmark because of their refusal to remove fakes from their site?

Please authenticate Coach Dinky 1941 37296 in Ruby.
A woman in my neighborhood received this gift. I don't know how to tell if this is real. I've never seen so many words on a Coach purse, and I cannot find this color Ruby other than one Hong Kong web site. Thank you.

 

[Romey Beano]

I think they're okay but I'd like @houseof999 to have a look.

Note that although the color of both the bag and the card case appear to match, the textures are different; the bag is pebbled and the card case is crossgrain.

Hello thank you for your info. I didn’t even notice the difference in textures. RomeyBeano
