The bag in the pictures taken by the seller looks ok, however, I have an issue with sellers who steal copyrighted photos.

In this auction from the same seller, all of the pictures are stolen from the Coach website:
http://cgi.ebay.com/COACH-PURSE-PARKER-LEATHER-SHOULDER-ZIP-ROSE-GOLD-13465_W0QQitemZ180374260312QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_CSA_WH_Handbags?hash=item29ff24ca58&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|293%3A1|294%3A50

And a "powerseller" no less! Grrrr!
 
I think this coach is a huge fake. in the second picture on the craigslist site you will see the leather strap does not continue around the back like it does in the second link which is a stock off of the bag borrow steal site... but this bag could be an older style and I don't know how to just look at a bag and tell.

Good grief! The Craigslist ad states that she also has it on ebay and gives the item number:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&item=150354966385&viewitem=&salenotsupported

unsold and relisted:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150356270925&viewitem=&salenotsupported

And the seller refers buyers here for authentication (but gives the wrong web address!! As far as I can tell, style 10537 is not a valid style number, at least not for this bag.

Can anyone please tell me if this is real. I am learning to spot fakes but I haven't perfected it yet. Thanks so much.

You'll need to post more pictures. There are some "good" fake wallets and although this isn't one of the more frequently faked styles, it has been faked.

Seller ID: newhampshireblackbear

And what really makes me mad is that s/he got a message from at least one Ebayer that I know of listing all the areas that were fake (without going into any detail). But the seller STILL re-listed after Ebay removed it!

Ok something seems off to me. Here are two sellers which I believe are the same person. Some of the bags look real, but some are clearly fake. Help please.
Seller 1:
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/sheik007_2008

Seller 2:
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/meemu0502
I agree that they are probably connected. And they're probably shilling too.

Both sellers have feedback from gunung6663. The "buyer" bought Sabrinas from each of them. Hmmm. Could be coincidental, but of all the sellers on ebay, it's highly unusual that they'd buy the same bag (even if different colors) from them.
 
It looks a bit more like the one on Coach's website, but I really can't say for sure since I don't own one, sorry. I'd give it a 90 percent probability of being ok unless someone here can supply a photo of one they know was bought right from Coach.

Based on the pictures in the listing (posted in another response I made,) I think the conversation heart keychain looks good. The seller shows decent shots of both sides.

Here is the listing:

Hyacinth, do you agree?
