Hello authenticators!

When I most recently saw my mom, she complimented the Waverly I was carrying (which you helped me authenticate - cheers!), so now I am on the hunt for a similar-style bag to give as a gift to her :) I'm hoping to give her a black 4140 or 4157 bag. There are a few Ebay listings I'm eyeing - linked below - would appreciate any guidance you could give here.

Thanks again for all you do!

Item: Vintage COACH WAVERLY SOHO Black Leather Tote Shoulder Bag Handbag Purse 4157
Listing number: 225637411442
Seller and site where listed: schoon15 on Ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/225637411442
Comments: Creed states it was made in Costa Rica and has an Outlet symbol, but the "P" on the serial number looks a bit bizarre to me - it seems like a lower case p shifted up to be upper-case, if that makes sense. I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if this is a significant detail.

Item: Vintage COACH Lafayette Soho Waverly Satchel Handbag 4140
Listing number: 144901680371
Seller and site where listed: superlamiles on Ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/144901680371
Comments: The creed pic might not be clear enough - if not please let me know and I will ask the seller for another.

Item: Coach Vintage Soho Lafayette Black Leather Tote Bag 4140 Costa Rica
Listing number: 285301908249
Seller and site where listed: mrmojorisin5-1 on Ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/285301908249
Comments: Another Costa Rica bag! and this one has the same kerning issue that my Waverly from CR does :) I know that is not a guarantee it is authentic, though.

Thank you as always for your time!

Hi Authenticators,

I recently purchased a Coach bag online and am feeling silly because I feel like the price I got it was too good to be true. It’s not here yet and if the listening doesn’t have enough info, I am happy to repost with my own pics when it comes in. Are any of you able to tell if this is authentic?


Item: Coach Heart Crossbody with glove tanned leather
Listing number:
Seller and site where listed: Poshmark
Link:https://posh.mk/tiSAlJaSVAb
Comments: Please let me know if this is enough info! I am feeling very dumb right now.

They are all authentic. None of them are Waverlys. 4140 is a Lafayette and 4157 is a Soho Buckle bag. Lafayette is a big bag.

Does poshmark not ban or at least regulate sellers selling fakes? I just bought some coach bags on posh and now questioning if theyre real…
