Hello! I just purchased this bag on Poshmark from @tara2240322. https://posh.mk/gRCLd8LSKBb

Is it an authentic Courier? I know the creed photo isn’t the best. She said the numbers are 8571 and I think there are three more numbers before that. Apologies if you aren’t able to authenticate it without a better creed photo and I’ll update with one later when I receive it. Thanks!

It's more likely to be real than fake, but we ALWAYS need to see actual clear, readable photos of the creed and serial number since we look for specific details of the stamping itself such as the fonts used in both the creed stamp and serial number stamp and even the correct punctuation, and then compare the photos with our own photo files. We also recommend not buying Coach products especially highly-faked styles unless the seller has included those photos.

I personally have problems with my ancient computer that don't let me see the photos in most listings, so either one of the other authenticators has to look at the listing or the potential buyer has to post copies of the seller's photos here.

The best and quickest thing when authenticating a Coach product is to include a readable copy of the seller's photos with all authentication requests whenever possible.

Coach Forever Horse & Carriage t-shirt
Mercari
Seller- serenityprashant

Is this real Coach?

THere's just a single picture and it's not too clear (on my laptop) but the fact that it's Gildan tells me that you don't want it. Coach doesn't have their logo on Gildan t-shirts.

ETA: Please request that the seller send or post a picture of the neck label.

Coach makes a similar item but it's not Gildan.

ETA: It's also on coach outlet website and the seller "borrowed" the Coach outlet stock image:

In order to authenticate it, I need to see actual pictures of the shirt that Serenityprashant is selling.

It's gone from Mercari now, must have been fake. I didn't get to ask for more photos.

Looking further on Mercari, searching Coach t-shirt, a ton of these come up, saying Gildan and they are all around $20. Must all be counterfeits.

@Hyacinth - I understand and I appreciate you explaining. I’ll check back once I have it to send a better photo of the creed. Thanks so much!

My guess is that they're probably fake. It's a current item price at close to $100 on the Coach site and $52.50 on the Outlet site. Thus, the $20 price one of those "too good to be true" cases.

I've never seen Coach items with Gildan labels.

Other opinions are welcome!

ETA: This one is genuine:

Gildan tee shirts with Coach logos are fake.

IMG_4440.jpegHello,
Would anyone be able to say if this is authentic? I tried to grab a bigger picture of the creed but I don’t know if it’s ok. Thank you for your time.

I believe it is authentic.
