NEW COACH 3/4" OP Optic Art Black/Silver HINGED BANGLE
Item number: 290414908034
Seller: glo02
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-COACH-3-4-O...emQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item439e13d282

I'm usually pretty good at determing authenticity on bangles, but can someone double check this for me? I dont think its real. I was at a Coach Boutique yesterday looking for an Op Art bangle and the associate said Coach never made a HINGED op art bangle (only slip on), classic signature was the only hinged ever made thus far. Not to mention, the carriage logo on the inside? Real or fake? Thanks!

I wish Coach associates would stop making such blanket statements if they don't know what they're talking about!

That listing is for an authentic bangle. Seller's items are all fine.

To echo what Been Burned said - don't depend on Coach employees to give accurate information.
Here's Coach's official photo of that one - style 94381:

That's an authentic bangle. This seller sells authentic items.

I agree with everyone else that the SA doesn't know what she's talking about.

The necklace looks ok to me. In the auction for the earrings, the seller used a Coach stock photo and no other pictures. This seller has a few auctions where she only uses stock photos. If she's able to take pictures for her other auctions, there's no reason to use stock photos at all.

The ring and earrings look ok from your pictures.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and new to Coach. I've learned so much-thank you!! I'm stalking the auctions for Legacy. This can't be real, can it?

Item: NWT Coach Legacy Metallic Mini Bag Purse Bag Satchel 13181
Listing Number: 150429743796
Seller: Boog0701

Comments: Is this even a valid Coach number?

I wouldn't buy from this seller. This seller and her other ID (watermarked on the photos) appears to be using stolen pictures from other sources. The first picture in this auction is a stock photo stolen from the Coach website.

Since the seller doesn't use her own pictures, there's no telling what you'll end up getting.

Again, thanks for your time! Will look for better sellers next time. Or buy direct from Coach (it costs a lot more here than in USA, 65% more!! E.g. If coach.com retail is $158, equivalent US$ price here in Malaysia is $262!!!!)

It looks good to me too.

I caught that also (re the watermarked pictures). I think the seller has 2 accounts. The account with the same name as the watermark is from the same location as boog0701.

That said, I still have a problem with any seller's use of stock photos when they clearly have a camera.

Be very careful of liquidation.com. They make no attempt to verify and confirm authenticity of their items. Some of their lots might be all authentic but many can also contain a mix of real and fake.

thanks... from the photos can anyone tell me if authentic?

I agree with BeenBurned about liquidation.com. Even if the items in this lot appear to be ok, personally, I wouldn't buy from a company that makes no attempt to verify authenticity. We've seen fakes being sold on there.

Also, both IDs have some auctions with those collage-type photos, which usually indicates they were taken from another source.

Did you see the other watermark on the photos in this auction?

I did see that other watermark. The only reference I could find to sweetyclub2009 is in reference to a Japanese website:
