Just a heads-up on the Ruby Lane site - they don't bother to authenticate their sellers' items either. Seller "
MJG Designs " has a fake Station Bag with no creed pic but with a decidedly fake pull on the inside zipper pocket (which shouldn't even have a zipper), and what seem to be other problems too, like a strip of smooth leather on the underside of the flap under the top handle..The base also has 2 seams, one on each end, instead of a single center seam.

ALWAYS HAVE "COACH" ITEMS FROM RUBY LANE AUTHENTICATED

I don't see any Report link on the site.

I agree with you. I should've been more careful. I'm a little concerned about this site and unless there's a haversack or a pony for $20, I will never use it again. It dosent seem very regulated, I just hope the bag is decent. Lol someday I'll learn.:facepalm:
A long time ago I looked at that site. From what I remember, it is more of a web hosting site, where each seller has her own shop. Ruby Lane doesn't take anything from the sales. The sellers just pay for their shop. I don't know if this eliminates any responsibility Ruby Lane has to ensure sellers obey the law.

I think you're right on all three. They all look fake.

Looking to confirm if it’s an authentic Coach purse?

Please read Post Number one of this thread - that's what
**see first post for format**
at the top of every one of this forum's pages means, and post where you bought it and the URL, if it's listed on an internet site, etc. If we know what the circumstances are we may be able to help you get your money back. Because if you bought it, you got cheated.

I didn't go over the site completely but there wasn't any mention of authenticity in any of the usual places.

Welp, beware of ruby lane!
 
I DON'T recommend buying from seller STATION_85 . A search here at tPF for their name will give plenty of reasons why. They've listed or tried to list waaaaaaay too many fakes and have had too many buyers really unhappy with the condition of what they bought.
Here's just one recent example
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...oach-fakes-here.824098/page-410#post-33170929
and
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...oach-fakes-here.824098/page-410#post-33171885
A search at Toolhaus.org for the Feedback they've received at Ebay will provide even more reasons, or you can check their Negs and Neutrals at Ebay
https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayIS...ch=neutral&interval=365&_trkparms=neutral_365
.
http://toolhaus.org/cgi-bin/negs?User=Station_85&Dirn=Received+by&Many=ON

https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayIS...=negative&interval=365&_trkparms=negative_365

For my part, I'll report any fakes from that seller but I'll no longer authenticate items even if they're genuine since to do so would be like endorsing the way they do business.

Makes complete sense to me! This one just looked strange, so I was wondering if I should report. I won't be buying anything from this seller in the future. Thanks for your time!
