I'm asking y'all's opinion on this one. I am positive it's real but I like second opinions before I bid on ANYTHING off E-Bay. So cheap...!!!!

Hi There! I just wanted to comment on this - you may want to ask the seller for the actual serial number for this bag... I have the medium signature carry all in black (serial 10245) and it looks nothing like the one pictured. ( I checked the drill down and 10246, 7 and 8 show the other carry all sizes/styles)
Now maybe the bag in the auction is an earlier version than the one I have (from 2006) ???
I got my carry all last December and have seen a few in outlets now.

Good Luck to you!

It looks OK to me. But if 8girl isn't sure about it, don't bid, there will always be others. I'd be happier if I could see the serial number too but her other items look genuine and that's what I'm going by.

It's those last minute bids that seem to get us into trouble.
 

Did you read the seller's descriptions? These people RodeoHandbags are liquidators, and the bags all have some sort of condition problems. It's a good bet that the bottoms, especially the light-colored bottoms, are going to be dirty. If you don't mind a bit of grunge, no problem, otherwise you might want to keep looking.
 
Thanks. I was just concerned because there is some plastic around part of the handle, and someone on this board said COACH does not do that. It looks authentic to me, too, but the seller only accepts MO or personal check, so it gives me reason to hesitate.

Any comments on the plastic covering the handle?

Thanks for your help.

If you see clear or semi-clear plastic wrap on handles or leather straps, that's a bad sign. But on this one

there's just a strip of soft white foam around the hardware. Coach often does that to protect the hardware from scratching especially if it's two pieces that can rub against each other like a metal clip or a dogleash clasp.

I don't think they bag is fake, but I'd probably never buy anything costing more than a few dollars from someone who didn't take Paypal. If it turns out to be fake, you're stuck.
 
Hyacinth, You ROCK! I was worried that I gave wrong info - I just didn't want to see anyone get burned. I kinda figured that it would end up being a different version. Thanks for getting the right info out there. :yes:

Just thank Mr Peabody, his boy Sherman, and the Wayback Machine :supacool:
