Ya Done Good, BB!

I briefly thought of rubbing "someone's" nose in it but decided to be more civilised than he usually is. But I reserve the right to change my mind. Now we can add "New Vork" to those keywords if we need to find this discussion again.

Again. many thanks. I've been on a soup-making binge all day so haven't had a chance to check in. Hope you had a lovely holiday.

You might get a giggle from the HOS when you have a moment!

Hello BeenBurned,

Could you let me know what HOS is please? Thank you!
ETA it looks like an inside joke so NM but thank you anyway!

GOOD GRIEF.

She NEVER learns, does she? I always wonder what sort of lies she's told her real estate clients just to make a sale. My sympathies to anyone who ever bought a house from her. I guess being booted from Ebay one time wasn't enough.

Good evening dear authenticators, request to authenticate please. Thank you!

Item: Coach saddle bag pre serial
Listing number: 293516935293
Seller and site where listed: burma*shave on ebay
Link: VTG 70s USA COACH LEATHER RARE SADDLE BAG FLAP NAVY BLUE PURSE LARGE PRE-SERIAL | eBay
Comments: I have seen fakes with creed and no serial number so that got me wondering. I was considering this bag until I noticed the missing numbers. Thank you!

It's not an inside joke. The reference was to a seller who has listed fakes on multiple IDs, at least 2 of which are NARU (suspended) from ebay and this one is trusting Entrupy!

HOS = Hall of Shame

And in fact, tpzwholesaler on Poshmark is also known as evanmcgavin on ebay and all 3 of those fakes were reported and removed from ebay in the past few days.

wow! Thank you for the info. I’m amazed going through this forum how many shady sellers there are. Did you report the last listing? It looks to me like it’s been taken down.

Hi could I have help with authenticating this Willis please?

I did report but I don't know whether Poshmark took down the listings (including the other 2 fakes I'd posted) or if someone notified the seller.

Either way, they're gone - at least for the time being.

It's authentic but having been made in 2012, it's still another 12 years from being vintage.

Regina? not sure of color name.

Etsy seller: checkenginevintage

searched TPF for seller, but no results, unsure if good or bad. Bag looks dirty and a little rough on some stitches.
