Hey guys!
I just stumbled upon a Coach bag "Lane" yesterday which I really liked at my local Marshall's. I've never had a Coach purse before so I am not really sure what to look for. I went ahead and bought it. I doubt that they would sell fakes but apparently people buy the real deal and then attach the tags to replicas and return them?? Not sure if that is a thing or not but it did worry me a little bit. I don't see anything suspicious like uneven stitching etc. and it does smell like leather. I took some pictures for you to see. It also came with a white "silky" dust bag that has the coach logo printed in the middle (in black). The purse is about 12.5 x 5.5 inches. It doesn't say anywhere what material it's made out of. (Except for the little care instruction card) I would appreciate your opinions! And thank you so much for your time!

The bag you showed in the pictures is authentic.

And you're correct. Though Marshall's, TJ Maxx and other legitimate retailers sell authentic, there are dishonest buyers who do switcheroos so if there's any question of authenticity, it never hurts to verify.

In fact, there's a long thread where a seller ended up in jail for doing just that! If you get bored, this thread is interesting reading.

I'm not seeing a creed picture for the red one. It can't be authenticated without one. The first one might be okay but I'd really like to see a better picture of the numbers, particularly the two characters after the K.
