Hi all, I think this one is good but if you don’t mind confirming, thank you!

Item: Coach Regina bag
Item number: n/a
Seller: @emilyalli/Mercari
Link: https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m93958878334?sv=0

I don't believe it is authentic.

Ooh no! Thank you! So glad I checked, I am reporting it as well.
Where is the report button on Mercari? Every time I go there, they've changed it.

The fake Regina wannabe isn't the only fake that Emy's Closet has listed and/or sold.

Oof that’s a bummer you know I noticed that red bag was counterfeit, and then that made me question the Regina bag, which then I posted here for you all to check out. SO glad I did. I actually made her an offer and she accepted it but I have now canceled it and if she doesn’t cancel my order, I’m going to fight it big time. The way to report at least on the Phone app i found is at the top right corner with the three dots should be a drop-down menu that says report. I took a chance, but always now I know better than to even try to purchase anything before having you all authenticate it first!

Found it.

The report button was at the lower right at one time. Then they moved it to the area where the large picture is. Now it's on the upper right next to the title.

I swear they make it hard to find in order to keep people from reporting.

I think they do too!

Update on Regina, seller accepted my cancellation request but immediately relisted the bag…I have reported it, but if anyone else feels inclined to report it, the listing is reopened now. I even messaged the seller to say it’s fake, very disappointing they don’t seem to care.

I'll report!
EDIT: Did you tell Emy's Closet that you were cancelling because it's fake? So did she knowingly relist a fake?

I did yes! I submitted the cancellation request and then messaged her saying the bag was counterfeit and that’s why I’m cancelling. As soon as she granted the cancellation I saw it was relisted immediately and I went and reported it. She knowingly relisted a fake. The red bag referenced above is also still listed on her page as “Sold” and there are multiple comments that the bag is a fake as well…

I can't read the creed and serial number well enough.

If you lightly brush a thin layer of either eye shadow or baby powder, it might be more legible.

Please include seller ID and link to listing:

EDIT: This listing from the same Poshmark seller is fake:

EDIT #2: Another probable fake:

Make sure to include a link to the listing in the future. Here is the link: https://poshmark.com/listing/COACH-Vintage-Large-Legacy-Tote-9090-RARE-65ee4bb9046d74fe283692af

It's authentic. It's normal for the back of the pockets to look like that. The brown is a reinforcing material they sandwiched between the layers of leather.
