Most of their photos are NOT of the actual item you'd be getting but are photos stolen right from Coach's website. Not only can't you see what you're actually buying, but that site is in violation of international copyright and trademark laws by using Coach's copyrighted photos without permission. Also, a look through the wallet section turned up at least one really obvious fake and some other photos that were taken right from known fakes-selling Chinese websites, and photos with another seller's watermark on them.

Hit the Back button, fast.

To add further agreement to Hyacinth's comments, I've found at least one instance of a stolen photo.

On this page, if you scroll a bit more than 1/2 way down the page, you'll see a green patent leather bag.
http://usgalleria.wordpress.com/category/coach-handbags/

The pictures were stolen from this seller's listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-Coach-Patent-Leather-Chelsea-Green-Large-Tote-14022_W0QQitemZ350279760421

Scroll down 2 more listings and find a listing stolen from this seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-COACH-ROSE-LEATHER-HAMILTON-PURSE-HANDBAG-13957_W0QQitemZ280418154903


There are more! Even if those items were purchased from these US sellers, they should use their own photos.

Can someone please authenticate these sunglasses? The listing was very minimal however I do believe they are the Coach Alberta s845 Sunglasses. Just wanted to check with the experts. Thanks!

Item: Coach legacy shoulder bag
Listing number: 300365568712
Seller: gregmc12
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300365568712&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Comments: I asked about this bag before, but the seller only had one picture. He sent me a few more and then his girlfriend sent me some more on her Palm Pre. The Palm Pre ones are lesser quality. Those photos seem to show the bag being a little more washed out and faded. Opinions? Is it worth it?

Can you get a clear picture of the inside right arm?

Is there a link to the seller's listing(s)? Often the other items a seller has gives insight into the seller's honesty.

The bag looks pretty beat up. The sealant around the rings is peeling. It looks like there are some stains and watermarks under the handle and on the outside of the bag. I would ask if there are any marks or stains on the inside lining.

I just noticed that the seller says the bag "looks like new" and is in "pristine condition." I disagree.

I even asked this seller about sealant issues because I couldn't tell for sure from the pictures they sent me (not the yellower pictures posted here.) They said they had no idea what I was talking about but that they never had any issues with it. How could they say they never had problems with it if they didn't know what I was talking about? ~_~

COACH BLUE/ SILVER PATCHWORK DEMI PURSE, NWT,$238~LOOK~
Item: 260503889736
Seller User ID: yank56923
http://cgi.ebay.com/COACH-BLUE-SILVER-PATCHWORK-DEMI-PURSE-NWT-238-LOOK_W0QQitemZ260503889736

Comments: PLEASE REPORT! After having reported this listing daily for 4 days prior to its ending with a winning bidder, I received the most ridiculous response telling me that the listing wasn't removed, essentially, because the seller doesn't have a feedback history of selling fakes, the bag doesn't have markers indicating that it's fake and evidently, there were no other reports for this bag.

I gave multiple reasons why it's fake as well as authentic listings to compare.

Maybe if other reports come in, they'll respond.

Reported. The reasons I listed (the ones that were blaringly obvious to me) were the dogleash clip stamped with "Coach," the hangtag that was a weird font and the lining of the bag. They reduced the amount of characters to 50! I don't know when they did that but it must have been recent.

Thanks Starry! I thought this bag looked banged up, I just needed that second opinion. One of these days I'm going to find that whiskey shoulder bag! :p

No kidding. I was just hoping that it would be in good condition since they listed it so cheap!

Well, thank you. I guess that's what it took. The listing was pulled.
