My own files (nearly 100K images) have many various examples of genuine items, counterfeit items, probably counterfeit items, and items that are probably genuine. The probably counterfeit and probably genuine ones are those that the details are either right or wrong but at the time I'd saved those records, there hadn't been enough examples to determine (at the time) definitively whether they're no longer "probably" but would likely be "definitely."

There are genuine items that I wouldn't buy for resale because of anomalies that would make them difficult to sell and/or difficult to prove authenticity. Personally, I will only purchase items that I'm 100% sure are authentic or that I can confirm as being authentic.

With regard to the multi-function case asked about in post #89,196, I've looked at the pictures on ebay and agree with Alberta that there are enough problems with it that it's likely to be fake, and if authentic, certainly not one I would buy. (I'm glad she looked more closely at the pictures and reconsidered her opinion.)

I will say that if that item is fake (and the other poster on ebay seems convinced of inauthenticity), it's the first time I've EVER seen a fake multifunction purse. I've seen a LOT of fake chunky cases and skinny cases but never this one and never a fake with the "correct" keyholder.

Hope this helps.
Hi and thanks for your reply. The key ring is definitely not authentic on that ebay Mult-Function, as I found one that has all the indicators of being authentic I think, : https://gem.app/product/vintage-coach-multi-function-purse-7219-85389

I found this strange item thrifting at the local "Value Village." I was puzzled by it, kind of an odd shape for a wallet, but my research seems to indicate that it is this:
#61038 Metallic Leather Planner Organizer Agenda Calendar
Measures 6.5 x 8.5. (zipped closed)
Thanks for an authenticity opinion! Attaching photos. I found the bullseye symbol hidden under a flap!

It's authentic.

Comments: Looks OK to me but all the ones I’ve seen online were made in the US and this one is Mexico. Just wanted to check with you all. Thanks!

Both are fine.
 
Hi. I have found two identical bags, with identical date and plant codes, but the stamp font is different. I have never come across this before. One is on Poshmark Canada and the other is ebay in the US. Could someone have a look at them for me and let me know if they are both authentic. Thanks.

1) Authentic Coach Poppy Silver Leather Layla Shoulder Bag Y2K
Seller: ultimateposh_

2) Silver Coach Layla Leather Handbag D1182-18160
eBay item number: 293760074928
Seller: miss.shopaholic33

Thanks for your help.
