Here's another one. Thanks.

Those pictures aren't good enough. I don't see red flags but more pictures are needed.

I'll try for better photos. Sorry.

It's PROBABLY OK, newer Swingpacks aren't faked as much as the older ones used to be.

Sometimes you just have to decide whether or not you want to take a chance. You have to remember, the smaller and more basic the item is, the fewer details there are for us to analyze. The creed, if it has one, and the smaller inside tags are our best indicators of authenticy. Without those details, all we can do is make educated guesses.

I never really paid attention to charms and their authentication (oops!)... so I am doubting now if I am posting my question in the right thread or there is another one. Sorry...

At your convenience, could you please take a look? Thanks.
Item: Gift Box with Studded Tassel?
Listing number: m87724250995
Seller: jmharri02
Size: The Tassel is about 7" long
Link: https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m87724250995/
Comments: I bought it for the hang tag, I do not use charms and I am not familiar. The gift box seems real, but I am not sure... $49 even for the Factory is too low ? The metal seems cheap to me. The hang tag I believe is real.

This is the right place.

I'd intended to come back to your request but forgot.

I think it's okay and wish the sticker with style info hadn't been removed from the box.

It appears to be a possible promotional item though I can't find any info on it nor can I find (so far) another like it.

Thank you for all of your information. I truly appreciate your time and expertise. And I know that sometimes I'm just hoping that you can tell me if there's a red flag. Once again thank you for all the time that you contribute helping all of us.

I've always liked "A good landing is one you can walk away from." View attachment 4560832

I suppose that could be tweaked to cover Coach collecting as well. "A 'good fake' is one that cost less than a cup of coffee". A bit dry, but it's still true.

6$ dollar cup of coffee! and it was 6$US

Hello ladies. I wasn't able to lift the photos off Ebay but here is the link for the Casino Crossbody Bag. Is this authentic? Thank you for your time.

Remember to include the seller ID in future requests.

It's fine.

It's not necessary to include the pictures if they're in the listing. It's only necessary to upload pics if you've requested additional ones that we can't see.

Thank you BeenBurned and sorry about forgetting the seller id.

Hi, this item listed in Latvia (Europe)
Item Name: Original Coach bag (I found name by myself "Brooklyn Carryall 28" according to serial number)
Link with photos: https://www.ss.com/msg/lv/clothes-footwear/accessories/women-s-small-bags/lgodl.html
I wondered about metal tag . I hav`nt see it in live yet. Just have asked for serial number photos additional to published ones.
Is it real?
