Fake. It looks like the same bag as was asked about a few posts back from ebay seller senorluke.

In fact, I can't recommend senorluke. The seller has other fakes, some described as authentic and others admitted to be "dupe" (i.e., counterfeit duplicate copies).

Someone should let senorluke know that fakes are illegal on ebay (and in the US) and can't be sold PERIOD.

Fake Gucci sneakers described as "dupe"

Fake LV belts sold:
Dupe louis-vuitton belt men's 45cm
Dupe louis-vuitton belt men's 45cm

Ugh! I just realized that you must be the seller. You need to read ebay's rules about what's allowed and what's not allowed because authenticity disclaimers, admission of fakes, or claims of not knowing whether an item is authentic or not isn't allowed.

Sellers MUST know items are authentic or if not, they need to find out and verify. If an item can't be confirmed as authentic, it can't be sold at all!

As for the fake duffel sac, $20 is about $19 more than it's worth and it's illegal even for thrifts to sell fakes so if this were my purchase, I'd return it!

My goodness, Hyacinth, you ARE up early. It's earlier where you are and this is early for me! I'm trying to schedule our vaccines but the state website crashed! That's the ONLY reason I'm up!


I'm not even trying our state's website yet, when I clicked through a few of the links there already were a few that were super-slow loading or barely accessible, so I'll take my chances and wait a bit longer. And my sleep patterns are still a mess, so it's always a cwap-shoot almost every day as to when I'll actually get up. Today it was: Doze off at my computer at 10PM, wake up at 12:30 AM, go to bed, wake up at 3AM, watch the re-rerun of Rachel's show, back to bed at 4AM, wake up at 6AM, doze off on computer at 7AM, wake up at 8:30 AM. Doesn't that sound like fun?

I'd be afraid to try to start the vaccine registration process online because I'd probably doze off right in the middle, time out, and have to start all over again. And again. And again...

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well!
I found a bag I really hope is authentic- but I’m not sure. Have you ever seen a bag with the buckles for the straps that one buckle is upside down?

We need a full set of photos and information to authenticate.

An upside down buckle means NOTHING. The previous owner could have put it back on that way after she cleaned the strap or the buckles.

It's been almost 4 hours of hitting "refresh" repeatedly, only to have it time out. And the few times we found appointments (90 miles away!), by the time I filled out the forms, the appointments we no longer available. Actually, that's probably a good thing because we'd have to go back to the same place for the 2nd dose.

Every other time I've tried, the spinner keeps spinning and times out.

This is absolutely ridiculous!
 
Thank you Hyacinth! I didn’t know the buckles could be taken off- can I do it myself?

You should probably ask at the main Coach forum under Coach Clubhouse - Rehab and Rescue. Some are fairly easy to remove, others require some manipulation, and others are permanently closed. I don't know which the Rambler's Legacy uses.
