Someone told me this purse was a fake. I'm really not sure. Can you ladies please let me know what you think?

Item: Coach Leather Tote Bag
Listing number: 320481128212
Seller: jorpri8283
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Coach-Black-Lea...emQQptZUS_CSA_WH_Handbags?hash=item4a9e29ef14
Comments: I have never seen this bag before, but the lining looks real, like the MFF lining.


Edit: I think the photo of the lining and hangtag are not the same as the exterior photo!?!

I hope you didn't buy this. The bag is fake, as seen in the first picture. The second and third pictures are stolen from another bag.

Do not buy from jorpri8283. This seller has sold this fake Coach twice and a fake Gucci too.

Comments: I was researching prices for this specific bag (I own it) and came across this one--my bag is 100% authentic and does NOT look like this. I'm wondering if this is a fake or if a version like this was released at the outlets? My bet is on fake but I'm not sure, so here I am! :flowers:

It's fake - many wrong details.

What about this one? There's one tiny flaw that I see: On about the 10th pic there's a little leather tab and the number of stitches on the left side of that tab isn't the same as the number of stitches on the right side. Am I being too nit-picky? I know this stitching technique is a way of spotting fake LVs, but I don't know if it applies to Coach bags.

The bag in the pictures looks good. The number of stitches isn't always exact.

I think the seller is affiliated with or is the same person as this seller

http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-COACH-TRIBE...emQQptZUS_CSA_WH_Handbags?hash=item2eaae24519

since both sellers use the same pictures, are from the same location, and share the same Photobucket album.

It's authentic. This is not a MFF style. It's a boutique bag that was transferred to the outlet. The serial number of this bag is F0893-12704. In this case, F stands for the month of manufacture (June), 08 is the year (2008), 93 is the plant code, and the number after the dash is the style number 12704.

If the F in the serial number comes AFTER the dash and before the style number, then it's a MFF bag. Here is an example of a creed from a MFF bag:

Note that this serial number is A0972-F13117. A stands for the month of manufacture (January), 09 is the year (2009) and 72 is the plant code. The F after the dash and before the style number 13117 indicates that the bag is a Made for Factory bag.

Thank you for the great info, I never realized there was a date/factory method to Coach's serial #s my gosh its very similar to LV! So now I know to look for the "F" on the 2nd series of #s (the style #) to know if its a MFF bag!
