Someone elsae will have to authenticate it, but I just want to say one thing.

THE BRAND OF ZIPPER ON ANY COACH PRODUCT HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER OR NOT IT'S GENUINE.

Read the Signature in purple under every one of my posts, and then read what I wrote for the Salearea Guides almost 10 years ago about the YKK Zipper Myth. PLEASE don't ever waste your time looking for the name on a zipper! It would also be a good idea to read the other 5 Salearea Guides, especially the one on Coach Authenticity Guides - Facts and Myths that goes into all the mistakes and outright lies found in most of those online "guides"

Authenticity Guides, posts 15 to 18
and
YKK Zippers, post 22
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/salearea-guides.983575/page-2#post-32253103

Anyone who bases their Coach buying decisions on whether or not the bag has YKK zippers could end up with a roomful of fakes.
 
Here is a zip pouch that I have received an offer on. I am thinking it should have a little Coach stamp on the outside, correct? But this one doesn't seem to have one. Looks like it may be about 4x7, I asked the seller and they didn't answer that particular question.

Item: Small zip pouch
Seller: conniep114

Yes, I believe it should have either the stamp on the outside or a creed on the inside, or both. Without either, there is no way to prove it was made by Coach since the hangtag is removable.

ETA: Why would a seller charge over $14 for shipping something that weighs less than 6 ounces?

Thanks so much. On the shipping, I see $11 but now that you say that it makes me realize that's probably way too high for something so small. I don't know how shipping works since I don't sell. I thought maybe it was a flat rate? I've been iffy on that listing honestly.

Shipping is showing $10.40 for me. It's showing priority mail but even with priority, she can use either FRE or SFRB for <$8.
 
Hi,
I'm pretty sure this is authentic as I found it in a reputable resale shop. I would just like to verify its authenticity
Coach Willis, 9927
Thank you.
