We need the EXACT link for the item listing, NOT just the main site link, and we need it to have been Copied and Pasted directly from the page where it's listed. There are a LOT of fake Coachoutlet sites on the internet and we need to see the exact URL of the item.

There's only one genuine Coachoutlet.com site but fakes sellers can make the URL look like anything they want. You have to know how to tell the difference. EXACT link, please. If you don't know how to Copy and Paste a link from whatever device you're using, it's a good time to learn. And I'm not trying to be sarcastic.

As BeenBurned said, if it's from the real Coachoutlet site, it's genuine.

It's genuine.

I have a NYC Crescent bag, the size is as whateve said. Just would like to add the shoulder strap is rather short, maximum strap drop is 18".
If you are wondering the average selling price on eBay, just search "Coach Crescent Bag", then in advanced search choose "sold" listings, that will give you the results of recent sell price of the same bag.[
Great suggestion, thank you .

Welcome to TPF.

If you bought the bag from coachoutlet.com, you bought from Coach's own outlet site. (There are fake-selling sites with Coach in the name but this one is legit.)

So the bag would be fine.

Thank you I wasn’t to sure about stitching on the serial number as I seen on other bags were different so I was afraid that I got it from a fake website

Serial No. B2078-2712

Please post a picture of the part of the bag from which you got that serial number.

 

[MaraudingMagpie]

Both look fine. The catalog pictures I have for dinky show either a 45 inch or 48 inch strap. It does look short in the pictures of the red but it would be difficult to shorten. You could always ask the seller to measure it for you.

Thanks a ton!

Hello Experts,
I have recently purchased my first two Coach bags and I believe one or both may be fakes (I do really hope the tan one is authentic because it is very nice). Any help is greatly appreciated!

Coach Bixby No K5D 9984 & L5B 9984
I have done hours of research and one thing I learned is that the O rings should not be open; these are both open and also the hardware is not the same on both bags.

The brown leather is stiff and warped while the tan is soft. Brown tag looks very questionable after what I have seen and I am also unable to locate L5B in that style #

Key tags on brown are split and tan is double sided.

Both are same dimensions except for the thin straps which are longer (maybe stretched) on the brown. Tan seems unused.

I hope I did this properly. Thank you.

There is also this strap situation where the brown tapers to a weird shape and the stitching is pretty bad.

1- genuine Legacy Small Flap, from 1999
2- sorry, I can't even make a start at reading the serial number. If someone else wants to try, go for it.
3- genuine, from 1997

my apologies, @Hyacinth I didn't realize the weird angle of the creed in the beige one.
Thank you for verifying the other two!
