Hope this works. Thanks for authenticating. Did I post enough pictures for a name or year made ??
Sorry. Trying to use the quote function. Don't think I did it correctly.


You always have to make sure that your answer isn't inside the other poster's [ QU OTE ] and [ / QOUTE ] marks. Spaces and misspelling added by me to deactivate the quotes..

And if you need a name and date for the item, mention that in your original post. We also usually need better photos of the strap and strap hardware and the bottom of the bag than your pictures are showing - Front, back, at least one side or end showing how the strap is mounted, the base, an inside view showing the inside pocket if any, and the creed and serial number are usually needed for ID'ing vintage bags that don't include the style number in the serial number.

Late 1980s, I THINK it's a 4075 Bucket Bag from the Lightweight line

This looks fake to me. Can you please take a look before I report?
Item: Coach Poppy pushlock satchel
Link: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/223419555144
Seller: guliroza

I'm really not comfortable saying it's fake without a clear pic of the creed and serial. It's NOT a Poppy unless Poppys used Horse & Carriage emblems, (maybe I'm wrong though) and the way the long strap is wrapped is questionable but not proof. What besides the seller's misnaming it proves that it's fake? I'm not that familiar with newer styles so I'll reserve judgement until someone who is can point out what's wrong with it.

I wouldn't recommend that anyone buy it but I'd personally want something that would hold up in a court of law before reporting it. You're probably right, so if you're sure, report it.

I know folks don't like authenticating Poshmark, so understand if you choose to pass. If willing, I'd greatly appreciate giving this one a look. (I've already purchased - I just couldn't resist the price to get this as a gift for a family member who has admired my own Rogue 25. I just had to wait to get it to take the necessary pics.)

Item: Rogue 25
Listing: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Handbag-5d705ba5d948a11aca39cb42
Seller: cocolovesflower
Comments: This one has the original creed with the dummy style #, so this one is older than mine and has a bit more wear, but is in pretty good shape overall. It's also missing the hang tag and (other thing I can't remember the name of - the key holder thing), but I do believe it to be genuine. I just wanted to confirm before I give it as a gift. My family member loves my hand-me-down bags, but I just can't think I'll ever want to part with my own Rogue 25!

Additional pictures not included in the listing are below.

I see a potential problem with the HAC logo but I really need to see a picture of the creed and serial number.

ETA: I see a couple of other problems too. But still, without a picture of the creed, I wouldn't report.

ETA #2: For the record, these pictures show a couple of huge red flags:
