New to the forum and looking to start authenticating some coach purses I have found in a storage unit. Any help appreciated. Here's the first.
Coach black leather bag, found in storage unit creed number k1s-7750View attachment 5721189View attachment 5721190View attachment 5721191View attachment 5721192

Here's another for authentication:

Both are authentic and both were made in 2001.

The first is from the Hamptons collection but I don't know the name of the style.

The second one is a leather rugby stripe duffle.

Looking for authentication on 2 coach purses. First one is brown suede leather coach creed c6b-9011. Measures roughly 9"x8"
Second one is a white coach bag creed LO863-f10674. Measures about 14" x 8". Both came out of storage unit. Thanks!IMG_20230218_224914463.jpgIMG_20230218_224903332.jpgIMG_20230218_224924864.jpg IMG_20230218_224751294.jpgIMG_20230218_224822881.jpgIMG_20230218_224744894.jpg
 
Item: Coach Bandit Shoulder Bag in Brass/Ivory
Listing Number: 304795024479
Seller: biluemporium99
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/304795024479
Comments: This bag retails for $550 but this seller is selling it brand new with tags for $170.65. This seems too good to be true but the seller does have a 100% positive rating...
I have some comments:
1. seller states in description (and in all her 58 completed listings) that "All photos are of the actual item being sold."
That is NOT true. In nearly every listing, the gallery (main) picture and the second picture are all stock images and NOT the actual item. I didn't open each listing to see if there were more than 2 stolen copyrighted images in any but the point is that her statement isn't accurate. IMO, sellers should NEVER use copyrighted images that aren't their own. When I buy something, I want what I see to be what I'll get.

2. Although 100% feedback is a nice benchmark when looking at sellers, it's not necessarily dependable. Many buyers don't leave feedback, many buyers don't leave feedback if they were unhappy and many buyers may have received fakes and didn't know it so they left positive feedback. And in other cases, a seller might get a neg for a fake but buyers may have wrongly accused the seller. (I'm not saying any of those are the case with this seller but just demonstrating why feedback scores aren't always dependable.)

For the listing you've asked about, I'd like to see a few more pictures.
1. The price tag side showing the information about the bag (bar code, style number, color code, style name).
2. A better straight on picture of the full creed and serial number. The picture shown is skewed in a way that the font looks off but it just might be the angle.
3. A picture of the underside of the C front closure showing the male part that fits into the female part to close it.

Both are authentic.

The Berkley (suede) was made in 1996 and the signature tote is from 2008.
