I'm normally roaming the Chanel/Louis Vuitton/Miu Miu forums, but I promised my dear friend Katie that I would request this bag to be authenticated for her. This could potentially be her 1st "designer" bag purchase. She's really in love with the color and the hardware combination.

Item: Brand New Coach Embossed Exotic Ella #14206 Red

Listing number:130349169576

Seller: malloryk1

Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130349169576&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Comments: I've just emailed the seller asking for a clear up-close pix of the heat stamp, pix of the zipper pulls and pix of the dust cover. Any immediate red flags? TIA!

Please wait for the additional pictures since the first picture is a stock photo. I would also ask for a closer pictures of the front, back and bottom of the bag, hardware, a clearer picture of the creed, a closeup picture of the hangtag and a picture of the inside of the price tag.
 
Item: NEW COACH BLACK LEATHER MINI SKINNY CHNG PURSE 41971 WT
Listing number: 350288049462
Seller: tlaka

Comment: I can't find this model on the Coach website. Is this real? Want something like this to match my black sabrina. Thanks!

It looks good from the one picture, but more pictures, including ones of the back and the inside would help. The seller needs to have more than one picture in her auctions for Coach.
 
Thanks for the new thread, GP!

One more from the old thread.

Comments: This seller also has a wallet if you can check that out also. Thanks!

#1 - The wallet is fake.

This pouch from the same seller also doesn't look right. The thickness of the C's isn't right:

#2 - The bag is fake, and so is this wallet from the same seller:

So remember this post about the Coach Scarf on Craigslist?

Here's what the seller told me:

Hi. Unfortunately, there are no tags on it. Like I mentioned in my post I used to work at the Coach store in my hometown and because we had to wear the scarves my manager made us cut off the tags. I'm sure you're worried that it's not real. I would be, too. The best I can do is let you come look at it for yourself. You could probably take it to a Coach store as well.


Ella

What should I do? Meet up with her and see the scarf in person? What specifics should I look for in an authentic scarf?

This is an actual style; I think it's probably ok, but there should be a Coach logo in the bottom right corner of the scarf. I would ask for a closeup picture of the logo to be sure.

I know this doesn't help much, but I always tie the pony tail scarves around my bags as bows and the tags almost always come off. Out of 6 scarves, I only have one w/ the tag attached. :shame:
