I'd say it's a fake.
1. The signature C's are not symmetric.
2. The serial number looks unreal. I believe the second set always consists of 5 digits and sometimes there is a letter at the beginning of those 5 digits.
3. The stitching on the creed is very poor. The lower stitching is doubled and uneven.
Is it a fake. Am I right?

I believe that you are mistaken. That bag looks fine. The style number is 9362 and it's a signature duffle.
 
Hello everyone. Thanks for the help you've been putting here. I am trying to read around to check if I can tell a fake from a legit.. can you help me with this? I think the first 2 pictures are from the website though, but does the lining look good? I am trying to ask the seller to post more images though.

Thanks so much.. :)


The lining picture isn't right.
 
For me, nwot is a bag that has been carried once or twice with absolutley no damage.

I completely DISAGREE. NWOT means new without tags. If something is NEW, then it has never been used; not for a week, not for a month, not for 2 hours for a dinner out!! If it was "carried once or twice," with or without damage, it is not new!! And you shouldn't be selling it as such.

I bought one recently off of a seller who got it from an outlet (Tangiers outlet) and had no tags, no receipt.

Many outlets don't have tags on keychains and periodically, you'll find a bag, wallet or other item without its tag. But generally, outlet items have tags unless they've fallen off from handling.

As for purchasing an ebay item and not getting a receipt from the seller, that's very common. Many of us who sell don't want Coach to know we're resellers and getting gift receipts raises a red flag.

as for the registration they could have moved for work, school, marriage, etc and never made a new ebay account.

As far as ebay is concerned, this is item location misrepresentation.
 

These all look good to me. I'd buy without hesitation. The seller "AboutSales" has been around for a while and has a great reputation. I've purchased from them in the past. Good Luck!

not if they physically change the item location which is what the seller did-item location is correct, country of registry is incorrect (when you look at the listing all you see is the item location as toronto canada, when you click on the seller it shows account registered in us)
 
Just curious...what isn't right about the lining?

the lining looks exactly like the lining in the purse that i have (which i know is real as it is was purchased in a boutique). op please get a photo of the creed from the seller, that will be a better judge of authenticity. also ask the seller for photos of the actual bag (like you said the 2 outer pics they posted seem to be stock photos). once you get those photos (creed and actual front/back of bag) post them and you'll get a better answer on authenticity.
