Hello Authenticators, please kindly authenticate this NYC red Rambler. Seller wasn’t sure if it is real but I am fairly comfortable with it. And I waited till the bag is shipped just in case… It is a beautiful red color. Thank you very much.
Seller: elainecruz2570


It's DEFINITELY real, and I'm Definitely jealous! Loves me some reds - enjoy it!

(BTW, if you think of it, could you measure the strap end to end when you get a chance? Someone mentioned a while back that they'd seen longer straps on Ramblers other than the stock 43-inch version. Mine is 48 inches end to end and I wonder if there actually are others out there. That extra 5 inches makes a big difference. :giggle: )
 
Sorry but the link to the second bag did not work so trying again.

Brown Patricia from Mercari, seller mgconnelly

Thank you!


Genuine Patricia's Legacy from 1998

Thank you very much. I am super excited. It is in transit right now, I will measure the strap as soon as I received it.
ETA: I hope the strap is 48” too, I prefer long straps for crossbody
 
Hi Authenticators,
I think this is a very poorly made fake. Please kindly take a look at it, thanks.
Seller: tinybeauty14
ETA: I can’t wipe the image out of my mind, my eyes feel hurt too. Don’t remember ever saw one as lousy as this.

Dear Authenticators,
I found this dark green leather bag at a thrift store. Is it genuine? Thanks so much!

You're correct. Did you happen to google the serial number?

ETA: The seller also has this fake "brand new" LV bag for $90. It's listed without brand name and in the item specifics, she calls the brand "boutique."

ETA #2: The fake coach from tinybeauty14 has a really clear picture of the creed showing mistakes in addition to the invalid number.

Note: marXings and full "crain" leather. It might also say "wrinXles" but the angle of the picture doesn't show whether it's a K or X. There's also a lack of punctuation.
