I clicked on both links for her name and both are working fine, she's not "missing". And the bag is still listed, but still shown as "Sold".

Mercari isn't going to suspend anyone based on one buyer's comment. I doubt if they'll even remove the listing if you filed an actual "official" report using their Report link. Have they ever acted on reports from tPF members as far as you know? I don't think I've ever even tried, I'm probably registered with them but don't think I've ever bought anything from them.
When reporting listings on Mercari, no explanation is needed. One merely clicks the report button and chooses the reason for the report (counterfeit).

When I've reported (presumably as the first reporter), I don't see it removed.

However if I see a fake posted on the HOS and I report, the report goes through and when I click to return to the listing, there have been times when the listing is gone.

As such, I believe that after multiple reports, the listing automatically disappears.

Hi authenticators, It's me again. I just recently be obbessed with coach vintage. Could you help me check if these two are authentic?

Item: Coach Willis bag
Seller and site where listed: Poshmark @ hspillio
Link:https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-Coach-Crossbody-Bag-601b52d0ae766f285a54011b
Comments: I heard that most of time the mark under "O" in "No" should be a short dot, but this one, the mark under "O" is a short line. I wonder is it because of it's manufactured in Costa rica, not in the USA?

Item: Coach tote
Seller and site where listed: Mercari @HippyChicVintage4u
Link:https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m61130967145/
Comments: Same comment as previous. The mark under "O" is a short line not dot.

Both are fine. You can only compare creeds from the same plant and time frame. The Costa Rica plant didn't have the same font or length of underline as most of the US plants.

Genuine but it looks like a 9620 Compact Pouch. AFAIK there's no such style as Companion Pouch.

It's genuine but I can't find the ebay listing or the seller for some reason.

The color looks like Mahogany.
