This listing appears to use stock photos (from somewhere). I am not familiar with the site so I don't know whether they sell authentic.

I've watched this seller for a while and as far as I can tell, her items are authentic and her pictures are her own (although they've been stolen by other ebay sellers to use in their listings).

Hey just saw these beauties on bonanzle. I'm a 100% sure they are fake, but still want to verify before I report.

Technically, these have G's not C's, so they are not fakes, they're "designer inspired." However, the seller is not allowed to use the Coach name. If the seller revises the listing and doesn't use the word "Coach" anywhere, then it's ok to list. The items can be reported for using the Coach name, but they are not fakes.

I looked at your thread:

That's a Carly top handle pouch, that's why the strap looks different from the regular size Carlys. Some Carly pouches do not have serial numbers on the creed (and some do.) It looks ok from your pictures. The fact that the video store is selling Coach, though...:nogood:

So in this case, should I contact seller and ask her to revise listing instead of reporting?

You can contact the seller and suggest that she revise her listing and remove the Coach name since mentioning the Coach name for a non-Coach item is against Bonanzle policy and could get her listing pulled. She can list it as "Designer inspired" just not "Coach inspired."

Thanks, Starrymaz. I'm not actually interested in bidding, but didn't like the way the stitching looked on the picture of the side of it, so I posted to see what others thought. I also thought a couple of her wallets looked fake as well.

I felt uneasy looking at it too (it might be the lighting or the way the picture was taken) but without seeing a closeup picture of the creed and better pictures of the bag, there's no proof that it's fake.
