Hello:smile: I was wondering if someone could please authenticate this bag for me.

Seller: june_cleaver
Site: Poshmark
Comment: so I purchased this bc the seller listed on the description that it was already authenticated on the purse forum. Pictures are from the listing. It looks nice but what do I know.

Welcome to tPF!

The bag is genuine, the style was introduced in the late 1990s and this particular one was made in 2000. The style name is Legacy Zip, just as in the listing.

The seller is a regular poster here, we authenticated the bag before she listed it for sale. Instead of Copying & Pasting the listing details, we prefer for future authentications that you just Copy & Paste the actual listing URL if it's still available. If the photos are still available in an online listing there's no need to post them here, it can save you a lot of time. If we need additional photos, we'll ask for them specifically. Anyone who's a tPF member and who authenticates their items before listing them is usually very good at making sure their listing or auction photos include all the important details. :smile:

Never hesitate to ask us if a Coach product is authentic. There are SO many fakes and almost every style in the last 30 or 40 years has been illegally copied at one time or another. And please don't believe 95 percent of the bogus "rules" on the internet about how to tell if a Coach is genuine. It takes a pair of human eyes, sometimes 3 or 4 pairs, years of experience, and a huge photo library of "comps" to make that kind of decision.

Oh wow :sad: no wonder I was so confused with the information I found online! A lot of them contradict each other so I felt like I was running around in circles. I really appreciate your help. Thank you so much!

Curious about this key fob I recently purchased. I think it's a monkey outline and I bought it because it was unique. I've not seen it before, so want to be sure it's genuine, though. It definitely feels and looks it to me - I received it today and it's got a really nice and unexpected heft to it.

Item: Monkey key fob (metal)
Listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/203337821816
Seller: cosmobooks5

Thank you in advance - please let me know if any pictures are needed aside from the listing photos.
