I'm seeing a red flag in that photo. Please wait for someone to verify before paying, if you're the winning bidder.
Just the fact that she says it was a gift is also a problem since many fakes sellers do that - they think they can't be blamed if the buyer finds out it's fake.

Edited to add - I see problems with the hardware, the creed patch, and the Carriage plaque. Personally there's no way I'd bid on that one. It's also a brand-new seller with NO Feedback.

Compare it to this GENUINE bag - the lining and creed are completely different, as well as the other things I mentioned:

I agree with Hyacinth. That is definitely fake. I hope that you haven't paid for it already. The straps and the plaque are definitely not real.

Just looking for authenticity - many thanks. Auction ends in 4 days.

I would ask the seller for another picture of the bag and for a closeup picture of the creed. I find it odd that the first picture shows the bag with a scarf and a price tag that looks like it says "Coach Factory" on it, yet in the auction description the seller says that the scarf is not included and that the bag is not from the outlet. It makes me wonder if the first picture is the seller's own picture.

Coincidentally I did that before I posted on here for authentication - so I'll see if she gets back to me with more pictures. I guess I learned a thing or two from you guys. ;)

I did notice the scarf thing, which I don't care about, but I can't make out that it could say "Factory" on the Coach tag. We'll see!! Thanks!

I just thought it looked like it says Factory on the tag below "Coach", but I could be wrong! :p

Hmmm - I just checked the reviews on the seller - and when I look at this listing, again she makes a point of saying it's NOT a factory item, yet the tag clearly shows an item number starting with an F - doesn't that automatically mean it's Factory???

The tag with F before the style number indicates that the item was purchased from the outlet, but the wallet is the original boutique version which was transferred to the outlet. There was also a version that was made specifically for the outlet. I think she means that the wallet in the auction is the boutique version, not the MFF version.

WOW, OK thanks - good to know. But if the serial number has an F in it (after the dash) then for sure it's MFF, right?
