Good afternoon Authenticators! Would you mind looking at this bag please? This is it for a long time! But I finally found (hopefully) my blue Stewardess!

Item: Stewardess
Seller: tony7772001
Site:Ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/174933692827?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=uQF1Ydn48ivfCdUfgP7roRxz4Nk%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

Comments: I asked for a picture of the the under side of the front flap (where the pouch should be) and the seller has not sent that yet. In the interim, is it possible to get an authentication?

I was going to go after that one but saw your posts and didn’t bid. Gotta show the love! There will be other bags. Hope you got it! *edited to correct bad grammar*

I feel like I'm beating a dead horse but if my posts prevent even just one person from assuming that "poshmark ambassadors" are honest sellers who sell genuine merchandise, it's worth it!

The fake bag that @Hyacinth (un)authenticated isn't the only fake sold by "poshmark ambassador" tonihallmark.

These are some other fake Coaches that the seller sold:
Fake wallet #1: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-khaki-Wallet-5cca063efe19c74d9b1d5188
Fake wallet #2: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Signature-Khaki-Wallet-5df805408d653d6ad98ccb1d

I for one couldn't give two ****s if someone is an "ambassador." I didn't know that title was supposed to lend a wash of legitimacy to their claims, what a joke! Thanks for educating people about that, BeenBurned.

Coach Vintage Collegiate Crossbody Shoulder Bag

Shop ditooshop's closet or find the perfect look from millions of stylists. Fast shipping and buyer protection. A beauty of a bag. Coach Collegiate from 1988. It is clean inside and out. Leather is in excellent condition. No ink marks. One water mark on very bottom. The only drawback is it must...

Thank you!!

Cool, I was hoping someone here scored that!

I had my eye, well my slow finger on it too. Enjoy!

Genuine, but as well as the listed cigarette smoke smell, the bag is not a Collegiate, it's a Prairie Bag, made in 1994. The catalog photo in the listing of a Collegiate has a different flap closure.

ETA - And it DEFINITELY wasn't made in 1988!

Hello! I purchased this little clutch and after receiving it, I’m now reasonably certain it’s not auth. I made this account to check this. Thanks in advance!

item:suede leather and logo canvas clutch
Purchased: Poshmark

My thoughts: the creed says it was made in the US of glove tanned leather, which doesn’t match up with the date frame of the design and the material of it. The clasp is very hollow and rectangular.

Item: Blue wallet
Where purchased: local thrift store
8" x 4" when closed
11 1/2" by 7 1/2" open
Smooth blue leather with gray lining

You're correct. It's fake.

Please post a link to the listing and the Poshmark seller's ID, both of which are required as per the post at the top of every page of this thread.
