I'm almost certain that's a Coach/Cashin bag, BUT I would be hesitant to sell it as such. With no Coach markings it would be impossible to prove. I wonder if at one time your bag had the little metal Coach label and it fell off?

The "B" on the hinge is for Branson Manufacturing who made the hinges, so that's no help at all...unless they only made hinges for Coach.

I found 3 of those bags on ebay. They all appear to be identical to yours and the first one DOES have the small "Coach" stamp. The other 2 don't appear to have any Coach marks at all, but one was sold as Coach and the other was sold as Cashin.

Thank you! I know sellers sometimes confuse the "B" on the kisslock for Bonnie, so I knew that didn't prove anything and hoped that wasn't what the seller was going by. I am definitely keeping this one! Though I may send it to the Cashin foundation to see it they have any info. I am quite relieved, because I really thought I would find some markings like the lozenge or a Bonnie tag and couldn't find either.

Item: Coach Large Oil Slick Sabrina
Listing number: 180440958461
Seller: rubydog8
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...Category=63852&_trkparms=algo=LVI&its=I&otn=2
Comments: Creed has 99999 and an "S". Seller claims the "S" is from the bag being sold at an "Employee Sale".

The S may be a marking for "Sample."

See here for an earlier discussion of the 99999 style number on the creed:

In any case, I don't know if I would buy from this seller, seeing as the previous pictures in this auction were stolen from another TPF member (which the seller has since removed), as discussed in your other thread.

Ok..my mom really wanted the Maggie Op Art Chainlink bag but I guess it's sold out on the website(in the color she wanted) so my dad bought one off of ebay. I've created a Coach monster out of my mom!! haha So, can you ladies look over this bag for me please?

The bag in the seller's own pictures is fine. For future requests, please use the format in Post #1, as this makes it easier to search to see if an item or a seller has been asked about. Thanks!

As an aside, I know some sellers are not aware that using copyrighted photos is wrong, but they should not include copyrighted photos taken from the Coach website in their auctions. If the seller can take her own good pictures, then why the need to steal copyrighted pictures? This seller appears to take her own pictures for most of her auctions, but in some auctions she mixes Coach's pictures or uses only Coach stock photos.

Example, this auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-AUTHENTIC-C...emQQptZUS_CSA_WH_Handbags?hash=item33550c61ec

If I were a buyer looking to pay $500 for a bag, I sure as heck would want to see actual pictures of what I'm buying!

Item Name : Signature Shoulder Tote ( reversible and in blue colour )
Link : http://s895.photobucket.com/albums/ac160/ngyingwei/

Please help ... people bought back from US outlet store and sell to me
but i really suspicious after looking at the hardware part and the leather

Usually for authentications, we want to see a picture of the entire bag and a closeup picture of the creed, but I can tell from the pictures you've provided that the bag is fake. That's a fake price tag and fake care card too. The hardware, stitching, fabric, hangtag are all wrong on the bag. Please ask for your money back asap.
