Real?? Please say yes!! It looks good to my untrained eye, but if there is something amiss please let me know. Wouldn't it be nice if I knew enough so I didn't have to bug everyone here :girlsigh:

I think I may actually have to make the 200 mile pilgrimage to my Coach outlet up north!!!! I think I am now addicted!!!

TIA, Maggie

This looks good, but you may want to ask for a closeup picture of the creed to be absolutely sure.
 
Need to see a picture of the creed.

Help! Does anyone know if this is authentic? It doesn't list the style number. The auction ends soon. Thanks!

Well, i couldn't get a picture of the creed. But I got the serial number [FONT=arial,sans-serif]L3K-6270. When I pull it up on drilldown, it does match. If the price is right i might bid anyway. I don't know if this style would have been faked or not.[/FONT]

Yes, it does match the drilldown. I don't know if this style would have been faked either.

How can you tell that this is definately a fake? I'm trying to educate myself on these things since I'm new to coach.

Maggie

A few clues: The C's don't line up correctly. The stitching is poorly done. The leather looks fake. The zipper pull is wrong. The font and wording on the creed are wrong. The bag shows a reddish-brown paper tag hanging on it. The paperwork shown is the auction is wrong. The wristlet shown with the bag is fake. And if you look at the seller's other items, you can see that all the bags they are selling are fake.
 
I think this item is fake. Could you please give your opinion on this item? Thank you very much. T

I bought it at an estate sale. The strap is actually a woven fabric with the texture of elastic but not the stretch. The word Coach woven into it. It is exactly like the Legacy Signature Shoulder Strap bag http://www.coach.com/content/product.aspx?product_no=9986&category_id=788 except: it is brown print with brown trim, the lining is pale gold, and the tag is brass, not leather. It doesn't seem Coach sells a brown print with brown trim, but it's possible the bag is an older model.

The serial # is A2J-6094. Is there some way I can authenticate through that number?

Thanks SO much for your quick response.

That serial number is one of the most commonly-used numbers on fakes. The bag should be a Signature Demi, not a Legacy Shoulder strap. Sorry, your bag is fake. I hope you can get your money back.

Style #6094 should always look like this:
