Good evening Authenticators! Both of these listings are from the same seller who states the cases are new, but neither one has tags. Can you confirm authenticity of each? If authentic, any idea when Coach made these? Or any other info to share? Thank you!

The seller's store is Pettbellenuit and the ebay ID is pett-chan. (Store sellers may have different store names and ebay IDs.)

Both items you've asked about are fine but the seller has been mentioned several times with multiple Hall of Shame posts:

Thank you Hyacinth for taking the time to review the pics. That's a bummer, it's a nice bag but too bad it's fake.
Can you help me find a resource to see what the magnetic closure should look like or what numbers/etc.
it should have on it? I searched the forum and not finding much info.

There are different mag snaps for different size items, different placements and during different time periods.

Unlike all too many self-anointed "authenticity guides" we DO not and WILL not claim that having a certain feature "proves" that a Coach item is authentic. We look at the item as a whole and compare them to known GENUINE Coach items..

Otherwise it creates the same situation and the same black hole that you and thousands of others have been sucked into believing - that some bit of fabric or metal or stamping can PROVE a Coach is authentic.

If that were true,why wouldn't the crooks be using the same details ????? And why would we need Coach authenticators?

Read my Salearea Guides posted in the thread of the same name in the Pinned list of topics in this forum, and read my "signature" posted in purple italics under every one of my 36,126-plus posts in these threads. And don't believe every piece of nonsense you hear or read.just because some bozo twenty or thirty years ago didn't have the brains to actually research that piece of nonsense before they posted it as fact.
 
May I have this Facebook Market Place listing checked please.
Item. Coach Bag.

These are all the photos on the listing.
Thank you.

The serial number has been on the Daria48 Fake Coach Numbers List since approximately 2007 when it was first posted at Ebay, and from there to tPF.

Don't neglect the basics - SEARCH the forum threads.

"coach serial 308 9875"


Also note the incorrect punctuation ("scars." followed by a period instead of a comma, no period after "coachbag", "cowhide", etc.) and one of our old favorites, "marXings". Sometimes we even get a bonus and they throw in "wrinxles" for good measure.

Also note the incorrect punctuation and "marXings"
And the MARXINGS are characteristic of full CRAIN leathers.

Hello,

Is this item authentic? I purchased it on ebay and it looks almost identical to one i bought on Poshmark (I don’t know how I ended up with 2 but I did) the only difference between the two is the visible stitches on the sequins- this one has more visible stitches. There is a tag on the inside I couldn’t photo that is behind the credit card slots, it is brown with a coach carriage.

Size is 4.5 x 7.5 x 1.5

Thank you

Please see attached photos

Hello, I am looking to authenticate this bag I purchased from the thrift store. Google image shows it could be the Coach Station Bag. I've been trying to research information regarding the serial number, creed, and circle/bullseye on the creed, but haven't come up with much to help verify the authenticity. Thanks in advance!
