Thanks starry. Well the pics she gave are not exactly helpful.. the creed is blurred, and the tag is ... not exactly a frontal shot. She gave a shot of the side tag with the word "leatherware", and that looked iffy to me, cos I thought I saw peeling on the leather... too late to report if fake? I can post here whatever she gave me.
Anyway, my new target. I finally figured out how to add my Vpost USA add to my ebay account, I can buy from those who ship USA only!

Both are fake. That's not the type of dogleash clip Coach uses. Strap is fake leather. Zipper pull is wrong.
Thanks for the reply on Coach Outlet!
Likamarie82 Contact the seller and tell them you would like to cancel the transaction. Most sellers will cancel without much trouble. The seller can get their fees back through a mutual cancellation. Since it is a fake they are probably not likely to make it difficult and won't question your reason.
Good Luck!
Coach-outlet is an online fakes seller, NOT an Ebay seller. They don't care a hoot about laws or fees. The only thing that will slow them down is if enough unhappy buyers file chargebacks with their credit card companies.
The website doesn't say anywhere that their bags are genuine, and implies that they make them themselves or get them from an outside manufacturer:
"We know that people who love designer handbags always want the newest and hottest styles on the market. Often, we get our hands on new items even before they are released to the public. Then we begin the process of finding the materials, and creating the finest available anywhere. Our customers are usually amazed that products that they can't find anywhere else are available on our website, and that the quality is so high. That is why 65% of our business comes from repeat customers. All pictures on our website are of the actual products you will receive. We know that you want to know exactly what you are going to get when you place an order, so we have our photographer take pictures of every new product before it is put up for sale on our website. "
The buyer should contact her credit card company immediately to cancel the transaction. In fact, since the company is probably located outside the US (China would be my guess), I'd insist on my cc company issuing me a new credit card number and cancelling the old one.
We can't say it often enough - ASK HERE BEFORE YOU BUY, NOT AFTER. And if it's someone you've never dealt with before, READ THEIR WEBSITE! Nowhere does it give any information about the company's location or any kind of guarantee.
Pay attention, folks, it's YOUR money that's at risk, and maybe your credit card and personal information too.
TeachingTots' comment is two different issues. The first sentence is about the website Coach Outlet because she had previously asked about it.
But the rest of her post is referring to Likamarie82's Carly bag that turned out to be fake that she had bought on eBay and had not yet paid for (Post #1252). I don't believe anybody bought anything off the Coach Outlet website.
Although your post is certainly a good warning to all. Be careful of the fakes!

Depending on how old they're supposed to be, there definitely could be a problem with one thing I'm seeing. Did any come with any price tags? It's a shame the boxes are gone, especially if they had any labels.
Please check what I wrote just a few posts above this about Liquidation.com.
Since fakes sellers and distributors also read these forums, there are a lot of things we don't discuss in public, sorry.

Her listing is against Ebay rules since she called the keychain a "Coach" - as soon as someone modifies or changes a name brand item, they become the final "manufacturer" so to speak, and the item is no longer a Coach product and can't be sold as one. The description seems to explain that it's a "custom" piece but it's no longer a Coach. It should have been called something like "Handmade keychain with Coach charms" but NOT a "Coach keychain" or however it was worded. The charms may be FROM a Coach keychain but neither the chain nor the ring was made by Coach.
