Hello everyone,
Can someone help me authenticate this Coach Poppy Sequin Spotlight 13821 bag please?
Looks like the last 5 digit is correct with the real one but first 5 digit number doesn't match with other bags of the same kind. No alphabet but it looks like 5 numbers?
The seller says it is fake but it looks so real and I want to make sure ...
Thank you in advance.

The bag is authentic.

The second half of the serial number is the style number and is the same on authentic bags of the same style.

The first half of the serial number indicates the month made, year made and factory made and can vary depending on when and where it was made.

FOr future requests, see post #1 for the information we need to see in authentication requests.

Thank you for your quick reply and advice!
I'm still learning about Coach creed system... I did noticed from all other ebay listed bags of this kind (Coach Poppy Spotlight 13821) that all (at least what I've have seen so far) had a alphabet with 4 digit on the first 5 digit, such as L0969-13821 ( the real ones) but this bag in question has NO alphabet on the first 5 digit... This bag creed looks like 61089 or 61083? unless 6 is G lol.
Would it be still authentic without the alphabet?? I would like to know for future shopping reference.
I did look at the first page for guidelines to post and I'll be sure to follow them.
This is not at ebay site so I didn't think to post a link. I added two more different views of the bag.

Item name: Coach Swagger 37 chalk in colorblocked leather
Listing number: 221824107834
Seller: dnguyen1512
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-SWAGG...834?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33a5bf453a

I tried to ask for a close up of the leather creed, a pic of the hangtags, and the lining, but the seller said all the information is there; seemed to refuse taking any more. Even given her great feedback history, I assume it would be a better idea to abandon it? The fakes I see on the Swagger warning thread are just scary!
