Needs more pictures to confirm... pref of the price tag, the interior, and more pics of the exterior of the bag. Looks good so far.

I'm pretty sure it's a Hamptons Signature Pouch.


thank you margarita. I did not realize how small this is. I need to look more closely at the measurements. I really appreciate your expertise as well as the others here and how patient and willing you guys are. the only problem is the more i am on this site the more bags i want. thanks again.
 
I thought the bag looked okay but the seller threw me off. :sweatdrop:I'm nervous buying from a brand new seller -especially when it's a significant amount on an item that the seller stresses "No returns!" and no guarantee of authenticity. Just the learning curve, perhaps? Thanks. :)
I can understand your anxiety. If you're still worried, ask the seller for some more pics.. ask for better pics of the creed, any tags, zippers, etc.
 
I was afraid to ask in case it is a fake, and I was afraid to carry it in case it's a fake. :p

As far as I know, it is supposed to have a shoulder strap that's missing. I took as many detailed photos as possible, but let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks so much!

I'm sorry, this is fake. Where did you buy this? I hope you can still get your money back. The plastic on the handles is a dead giveaway of a fake, but there are MANY other things wrong too. The dust bag is also fake.

Bumping for another expert to confirm. Creed details look good to me though.

I agree with what DemRam said before about the bag. It looks like a genuine Mercer but there's no way I'd bid on it with just those photos. The condition of the bag is a big question mark.

My mom picked it up for me at some sort of invite-only show for retailers.

Can I ask what other signs there are that it is fake so I know what to look for in the future? Also, why do handles being wrapped in plastic for packaging make it fake? (I'm not doubting you, just trying to learn.)
 
Hi,

I wanted to know what do you think about these two bags. Are they fake? I am new to Coach, so I have no idea if they're authentic and would really appreciate your help!

Thanks in advance!

Here are pics of the second bag

:tup: This one's real but the other one is not.

Actually, both bags are fake. The swingpack says 5659 on the creed. Style #5659 belongs to the Scribble Mini Tote. I've attached a picture of what it's supposed to look like.

karo - If these are being sold online, can you post the auction or sale links?

There are at least two things that shouldn't be in those photos, and the stitching around the creed patch is pretty uneven too. The details of the fabric look ok but the other things still worry me. Here's the original DD:

Looks good to me too, let's see what Hyacinth or starry has to say.

Sorry, I don't have any insights, but I'll link to your original post so others can take a look. I believe DemRam responded to this in post #100, pg.7
