I've never seen it before, I've never seen that kind of clip before except on fakes, and the hangtag is completely unreadable and doesn't look like red enamel on a nickel tag. You should never bid on keychains or purse charms without clear pics of the Coach logos and the hangtag. And AFAIK Coach has only done an Ocelot pattern lanyard and probably a keychain. All their "zebra" paterns with stripes instead of ocelot spots are black stripes against a white background, just like a real zebra - I've never seen a zebra with black stripes against brown. Has anyone seen anything like this at the outlet recently?

Did you ask for clearer photos before you bid?

Item: Coach Madison Leather Walnut Convertible Hippie 14577
Listing number: 160415603500
Seller: cofergirl28
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Coach-Madison-L...emQQptZUS_CSA_WH_Handbags?hash=item255983db2c
Comments: Aside from the inconsistency in description (NWT vs. carried for a day and a half), does this look good? The price is a little "too good to be true."

I don't see any problems with the authenticity. The bag looks good but I have several comments about the seller and her misleading listing.

The bag comes up in "NWT" searches because she has NWT in the item specifics as well as the item condition. Yet the subtitle describes a bag as "NWOT."

Clearly the tag is included, as it's shown in one of the photos, however, both the "NWT" and "NWOT" are dishonest and incorrect since the seller admits to having used the bag.

IMO, if a bag is used for even an hour, it is NOT new and shouldn't be listed as such.

I've seen Coach zebra patterns with black stripes against brown, like below:

Thanks, BB, for your opinion on the authenticity. And I agree with you about the "new" issue. Either an item is "new" or it isn't, and IMHO, if it has been used then it isn't new anymore.

Is a white dust bag an indication of a fake Coach purse?
Thanks!!

Coach has several different dust bags. The older dust bags are brown cotton with red drawstrings. The newer dust bags are dark brown satin or white satin. There are also small white bags used for small items from the outlet, and some specialty/limited edition items may have different dust bags. If you're questioning a dust bag or a bag, please post pictures and we'll take a look.

Thanks for the links. The bag looks vaguely familiar but I hadn't known that it was made of haircalf, and I'd never seen the wallet or the iPod case before.

I'm curious to see the pics of the clip and the hangtag.

Item: Authentic Coach Signature purse beige patent leather
Listing number: 330412477746
Seller: Beauwolf82
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...477746&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_500wt_1182

Hi! My question is really about one of the comments that the seller made in their description. They had mentioned that this handbag was purchased at an Outlet, and that the Stock Number was written on the inside pocket in black pen. I'm not sure if this is customary with Outlet items. Please advise.

Thanks :)
