It's so depressing seeing all the fake signature stripe totes on eBay. The Signature Stripe tote style is very commonly faked, so I would recommend buying from a Coach store or outlet to be absolutely safe. The sig stripe line is in the outlets right now, so you may be able to get one at a good price.

As for these auctions, I'll list the most obviously fake ones:

#1, 3, 4, 5, 6 - FAKE :tdown:
While #2 doesn't scream fake, I would still be wary of bidding on any of these on eBay unless it's from a known, reputable seller.

Do you mind pointing out what tipped you off to these being fake? To the semi-untrained eye, these look good. Fabric, creed, etc.

Thanks!!

Ok. So I just purchased a Leigh from an ebay seller, and I was pretty sure it was real. My mom loves it, so I was thinking of getting her one in Whiskey. I am confused, though. All the Bags floating around on ebay, including mine have completely different stitching from what you see on the Coach website. Is this normal? The first link is for a Leigh that I am looking at on ebay, and the second link is to the Leigh bag on Coach.com. Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks. The stitching differences I am referring to are on the front of the bag. Thanks, again!

This is not real. The C's do not line up in the front, and I am pretty sure Coach usually does not put their name on their turnlocks. It is pretty obvious to me, though, that this is fake simply because of the fact that the C's are all over the place on this bag, and the over all construction is poor. Someone correct me, if I am wrong, but I feel pretty confident that this bag is NOT real. :tdown:
