Hello,


Does this Coach Taft look legit to you?

Item: COACH LARGE DARK BROWN LEATHER CROSS BODY BAG PURSE VINTAGE
Listing number: 331714396610
Seller: rssrss4
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-LARGE...E-/331714396610?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

Comments: The Serial number is indistinct on the Coach Creed, but the seller says it is G6D 9980.


Thanks in advance!

Wait for other opinions on the bag you're asking about.

rssrss4 has a fake:

Compare rssrss4's fake creed:

to an authentic creed from the same month/year/plant -

The Taft seems OK.

I'm not sure why your link didn't work. The bag looks okay.

Note that clhenderson88 does have another very obvious fake:

Hi BeenBurned,

Thanks for your shape eye on the fake item by clhenderson88. I tried reporting to eBay service now but system says "We're making some updates and will be back soon" . I hope nobody buys it before the reporting system is up. I will report once system is up again.

Thanks for authenticating the Camel Leather Crossbody Handbag. Any comments on quality from Hungary?

Thanks.
 
Could I please get this bag (in my possession) authenticated?

Length 8.5" widest
Height 7.5""
Depth 3"
Drop 22" longest

Do the white numbers stamped inside the exterior back pocket mean anything?

Thank you!

It's fine. The letters inside the pocket were stamped on the leather by the supplier. They meant something to the supplier but have no relation to your bag.
 
Morning,
Were any Coach's made in Korea? I read somewhere that is a sure sign of a fake.

Many thanks for your expertise.

No Coach leather goods have been made in Korea. Any bags, wristlets or wallets (and some keychains) with Korean-made markings are fake.

Some clothing and softlines goods have been made in Korea but since there have been fakes of the same scarves and fabric items, it's a good idea to have any items looked at.

Decent quality, but not quite at the same level as US, Costa Rican or Italian bags
