Hi! I'm always scared to buy stuff off *bay or craigslist.... I'm blonde and could get suckered easily. :) Does this seem real? If I need more pix, are there any in particular I should ask for? Thanks!

The first one looks good. The second looks ok so far, but could use a closeup picture of the creed.

Hope I'm doing this right - this is the first time I've joined or posted in a forum. I have a couple of old Coach purses that I'd like to authenticate. I've learned enough from reading everything here to determine that my first Coach purse is a fake and probably one of my others is, but I'm not sure about any except my latest purchase. I'm planning to sell these two, if they are real. Can anyone help?

The white one is a Legacy Small Pocket Zip from 2002. The green and Tan Spectator style is from sometime between the late 70s to the late 80s but I don't know the name. They both look genuine though.

It looks ok, but I wouldn't necessarily want to buy based on two small pictures that aren't very clear. I would ask the seller to send you more pictures of the bag so that you can check the condition. Ask for pictures of the back, sides, bottom, turnlocks, and the inside of the bag. I would also ask if there are any signs of peeling sealant from around the rings, which is common on the '06 and '07 Legacy bags.

It looks like a Sonoma Swing Wallet but I'm just a bit worried about the edges of the leather, they don't look very even. I haven't seen that style in person so can't be completely certain if they weren't all like that, but most of the other details look ok so I'd say that it's genuine.

I just registered here today. I have been reading post. I love this place. Thanks for all the tips. Is it true that on coach bags you will never see the C's cut Like on the front panel where they have a seam. Coach will always have full c's on the front and back?

No, that's not always true, it depends on how the fabric is cut and the location of the seams. Most of those so-called "Rules" are either completely wrong or have lots of exceptions, please don't use them as a basis for authentication.
