Wristlet

The wristlet is authentic and was sold in the outlet stores.

It's not necessary to show zipper brand as it's irrelevant as to authenticity.

Thank you BeenBurned. I wasn’t sure if you needed the zipper or not. What a sweet little wristlet. $1.99 was my cost. Thanks. Have a great rest of your day!

Thrift store find! Wallet with zip compartment. Measures 5.5 by 4 by 1. Thanks for looking, and if you know the style, thank you for that info as well.

I found the style number of the item. It's a Soho capacity wristlet, style (F)42135. You got a great bargain, probably because they didn't realize it is Coach. (If it were a fake with Cs plastered all over, it would have been $20.)

Authentic Ashley pleated wallet. Sorry, I don't know the style number.

Thank you!! I think I would lose things in this wallet. So many compartments!!

I'm 100% certain it's fake.

Be very careful when shopping on Carousell because there are more fakes than authentic items.

Also include a link to listings and seller ID in requests. If this seller has other listings, AVOID! (The link you posted isn't working for me so I can't see the listing.)

Omg too bad it is fake, really pretty bag though. From which picture you identify it as a fake?

It looks good to me, made in 1998.

Keep in mind that when figuring out if a serial number is genuine, the FONT used for the number is just as important as the number itself. Both need to be correct for the item they're in. This one has the correct font as well as the correct codes in the number. All the bag's other details are also correct.

There ARE some serial numbers that are always fake, they're listed in the Daria48 Fake Coach Numbers List that starts here under Always Fake:

@Hyacinth I was just reading your excellent Italian coach guide above and I have a question. I am currently rehabbing a Gramercy Top Handle 7002 bag from 1999 (that you graciously authenticated for me) see below for one of the auction pictures. I am trying to figure out the color name for this...

Seller @claradeals on Carousell

We don't get too specific on the problems and what makes an item fake because we don't want to help the counterfeiters make better fakes.

But what I'll say is that there are problems with the quality of construction, the creed, the hangtag, fonts and other elements of the bag and props.

Additionally, when sellers take pictures taken in the Coach store, those aren't showing the actual items she's selling. (The bag shown in the listing of the color of your bag is NOT the bag you've pictured.)

This is a different color AUTHENTIC bag made in the same plant and year as your bag. It was made 3 months later than your bag pretends to have been made. Compare the various parts.

Signature coated canvas and smooth leather. Zip-top closure, fabric lining. Detachable strap with 22 3/4" drop for shoulder or crossbody wear. Inside multifunction pocket.

I'll repeat. Carousell is a minefield of fakes and I recommend caution, if not avoidance.
There's a proliferation of close fakes coming out of Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Japan) and unless one knows what to look for, buyers are going to get fooled.

Sorry this was missed. It's authentic but I don't know what the style is. I'm sure @whateve and/or @Hyacinth will know.
