Item: limited edition polka dot bag
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/124176126861
Seller: ourkidsarecool
Comment: is this authentic? I only recall a white version. Can't see the creed patch and waiting for seller pic.

I've seen it in white or Camel leather, but never blue. I don't have that style in my files for comparison.

I'm also concerned that the Polka Dot line has been faked, and faked well. You definitely should wait for the seller's creed pic before deciding. I'm concerned that the known genuine styles in that line that I've seen have a Signature C lining, and the metal hangtag on the genuine styles is actually nicer (to me anyway!) than the one on a bag that's supposed to be a limited edition.

Here are examples of the standard hangtag and lining, click on the thumbnails

The style of the creed stamp in the blue one is different too.

Maybe if one of the other authenticators is familiar with that bag, she can give you a better answer. I personally would prefer to wait for that creed photo.

ETA - Here's a different style but still with a Sig C lining:

The bag from ourkidsarecool is definitely fake.

Hi again! This is a link to a coach bag sold on an online site. I tried searching the internet for information on the style number but almost nothing comes up. Hope someone can confirm if this style exists and if this is authentic. Thank you! please help before i buy coz owner said its authentic and bought from factory

Please read the instruction post at the top of every page.

There's no link to the listing, and there aren't enough photos and of the RIGHT photos to authenticate. There is no way to enlarge the photos either The top photo looks like it was stolen from the Coach website and is not the same exact bag as the other pictures and can't be used to authenticate anything. You mention the style number but there is no style number anywhere in the photos or in your post.

Hi there! I own 2 other rogues so when I bought this off of PM (it was shipped to their authenticators as of rn) it didn't look suspicious to me as fake... but can you take a look and confirm?

Hi Hyacinth - would you mind checking for authenticity on my rogue? :smile:

You'll have to wait for someone who is familiar with newer styles. Some of us only specialize in older styles.

Item: Rogue Souvenir Sky Print
Seller and site where listed: Poshmark
Link:https://poshmark.com/listing/Rare-Printed-Coach-Handbag-5dd48324fe19c7c016503b8a

Okay! :smile: thanks for letting me know

I just realized I didn't format my request properly so i wanted to fix that too
You also didn't include the seller's ID: Kate - ladymiyao

I'd never trust Poshmark to authenticate items, especially a style as highly faked and well faked as Rogues and other 1941 collection bags, Disney items, NASA items and even vintage and classic styles. (I"ve gone into depth about my feelings toward PM and generally, I don't even comment on listings from that site so I'll stop here.)

But I'll try to help you.

First, the pictures shown in the listing aren't adequate for authentication purposes.

If you have the bag in your possession, please take pictures of the following:
  • both sides of the made in tag from inside the bag,
  • picture of a white label with 2 rows of letter/numbers. The white tag is hidden somewhere in the bag, maybe in a side seam or possibly deep inside a pocket that you may have to turn inside out to find and photograph.
  • photo of the price tag showing the style, UPC and color info. (It's not legible in the listing.)
If more pictures are needed, they'll be requested.

Could I get this coach court bag authenticated please? Hoping this is the last time I ask!!

Item: Coach court bag
Listing number: 254573010872
Seller and site where listed: Ebay jmdesignerwarehouse
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Vint...010872?hash=item3b45bbdfb8:g:Lq8AAOSwb71emy6d
Comments: Edit- I did receive some additional pictures from the seller if necessary (not of the creed, can ask if necessary), I didn't want to clog up the thread.
