Hi Authenticators,

Item: Coach turn lock wallet
Where purchased: estate sale find

Comments: Hoping you can take a look at this wallet and help confirm its authenticity and ID it. I found it at an estate sale, but have never seen one like it before with that type of turn lock. Thanks in advance!
So far, it seems okay.

Please check on the back wall (under the coach logo and behind the pockets). There should be a made in label and possibly a white label with 2 rows of characters on the interior left.

It'll be difficult but if you can get picture(s), that would help confirm.

I don't see a white tag, but I did get the Made in label.

It looks fine though I don't know the style name or number.
 
Dear Authenticators,

I’m a bit nervous about this bucket bag purchased from a Japanese seller. It’s already mine but am uncertain about its authenticity. The pics are from the site listing and a few additional ones are from my camera. Thanks so much for authenticating it. (Variations in the red color of the bag are due to different lighting conditions).

Hello Authenticators,
I recently purchased this Coach novelty strap off of Mercari. I’m suspect now, because I see she has multiple for sale. It’s in good condition, though it looks like the price tag was taped back on. I was hoping one of you would please take a look?
Thank you

Item: Novelty Strap exotic 87324
Seller: Ulquiorra Cifer

The seller is also on ebay - ulquiorra-cifer with multiples of the same items.


My concern with her listings both on Mercari and on ebay is the lack of pictures in all listings. Additionally, many listings are pictures taken in the Coach store.

With that said, i don't see obvious red flags but I don't know the strap.
 
Hello!
I bought this Coach Riya Backpack on eBay from a Japanese seller with decent reviews. The receipt wasn’t shown in the post and the colors are lighter/more bubblegum than expected. I should note I have a riya in black and it feels way sturdier and better quality. I have a feeling it’s a fake, so if anyone could let me know for sure I would appreciate it! I still have time to return.

Your seller:
Fall Like Japan


I'd open a NAD (not as described) case. It's fake as are many Coach items from Japanese sellers.

I believe the receipt is probably fake and the supposed store location is one commonly seen when shown in Japanese sellers' listings of fakes.

Here's another listing from Japanese seller KURABASU of the same style bag with a receipt (different date and different customer name) alleged to be from the same (supposed) Coach store:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/386897251130

The bag from KURABASU is fake.

For several years, I've recommended against buying from Japanese sellers.

When you open your case, be sure you choose a "not as described" reason and do not accept less than total refund.

Thank you so much! The only NAD option is "Doesn't match description or photos", is that alright? I will make sure I get back every penny!!! I have had no luck buying this color Riya bag, so I turned to Japanese sellers, I won't make that mistake again, thank you for your prompt response :smile:

That'll work. I thought there was a "doesn't seem authentic" option also. But it really isn't as important which choice you make as long as you choose one of the not as described one.

I'm really sorry you have to deal with this but it shouldn't cost you anything out of pocket to be made whole.

As long as the photo of the creed and serial number is from the bag you actually received, it's a genuine Handle Backpack.
