Authenticate This COACH

[starrymaz]

thank-you starrymaz would you tell me what about it tipped you off that way I can learn

The fabric, leather trim, hardware, and strap are all wrong. If a picture of the creed was shown, it would be even more obvious. I'm very familiar with the Carly so I can see these differences right away.

The ad is still up - please report it!

I'm fairly certain that this is real, but a verification is always nice.

What do you guys think about this one

I'd like to see a closeup picture of the hardware (the rings and turnlock) along the side of the bag. This is the medium Carly. Are you looking for the medium or the large?

 

[starrymaz]

thank you starrymaz and margaritaxmix(for the frist answer).I post for ask again because I want to prove by the real one.

More pictures are needed. Seeing a picture of the creed is a must if you're thinking of bidding on any signature Carlys. I would also ask for pictures of the hardware (rings and turnlock) along the side of the bag, the dogleash clip, the bottom of the bag, the strap, and the inside of the bag.

Auction link? Do you have more pictures, including a picture of the creed?

Did COACH make this?

No, technically Coach isn't the manufacturer of any of the seller's jewelry since they're handmade. The charms may be genuine but nowhere in the auctions does the seller disclose that the pieces are handmade, and by law and by Ebay's rules she can't use the name Coach in the title and imply that Coach made these pieces.

Ebay can and should remove those.

Has Coach ever made an Optic Art Demi like this?

Coach did make this style, but I can't tell if this one is missing the strap. I don't see the entire strap in the pictures, only what looks like it could be a strap, but I can't tell if it's the whole strap. So I would ask the seller about whether the strap is missing. The seller is a brand new seller. More opinions are welcome.

Thank-You, I did report it and I even posted something saying how its a fake bag and that shes trying to play it off as a real coach, and to not fall for her scam.

Since the auction is almost over there's no time to ask for a picture of the creed. While I don't see any red flags, I'd still like to see a creed pic. The leather trim and signature fabric look kind of dirty, though.

Looks good.

Thanks!!!

I really want a large Carly, and I just don't know where to look. I guess I was really naive as to how people can be so dishonest.

Based just on that one pic I'd have to say Don't bid, but if Coach considers that the back of the bag sometimes the C alignment isn't centered. Do you have more pictures, or an auction link?
