Those wallets were not found in any of the sites you mentioned. It is in one of those blog sites selling coach stuff in BP mode i think

Maybe someone else can but there aren't enough details in those pictures. Wallets are VERY easy to fake and the seller is as important as the details of the item itself. That's why we often ask for a link back to the auction or selling website. If a seller is selling dozens of the same highly-faked wallet styles (and almost every Coach wallet has been faked), then we assume that all their wallets are probably fake.

Which online site did you see these wallets at? Almost every site claiming to sell Coach or other designer bags at a discount, at "wholesale", or to be selling irregulars or overstocks is selling fakes. Amazon has a large number of fakes and iOffer is almost ALL fakes. Coach does NOT sell to "wholesalers", discount websites, small internet or Brick & mortar stores, or any other second- or third-tier sellers - most of them are selling cheap bad fakes drop-shipped right from the Chinese counterfeiters and distributors. Coach only sells to their retail department store partners like Macy's, Dillards, etc and to a VERY few known volume liquidators and to discount "last stops" like Marshall's and TJ Maxx. Never never NEVER buy any designer items from any website advertising wholesale or discount prices wihout asking here first.

Here is another bag from the same client. Is it a fake? thanks

Sorry, the bag is fake and can't be sold anywhere. The serial number on the creed belongs to a different style and the wording is for a leather bag not a fabric bag. Where did you get this bag?

DemRam's correct, Coach was supposed to skip the "I" because it's too easy to mistake it for a "one". Most car manufacturers do the same with their serial numbers. "M" is the valid code for December.

And although most bags I've seen with I's or N's as the month code have been fake, there have been a very small handful that seem to be genuine, especially from brand-new plants or plants where reading memos from Coach wasn't high on their list of priorities, like Italy. But any bag with an unusual month code should be posted here for verification. And there are a LOT of fakes with serial numbers beginning with the letter "U" - those are ALWAYS fake.

Hi ladies! I haven't been around much lately, since I've banned myself and looking at all of this is too tempting :p However, I need a black wristlet. What do you think of this one?
