Comments: I don't think this is real. Doesn't the patch look like it is missing a creed number?

Thanks

What are the measurements?

Can't find my measuring tape, but it looks to be 11x6

I can think of 2 bags that it *could* be.

The "Pocket Purse" (Style 9755) has measurements of approx. 9 1/2 x 5 1/2 x 2.

The "Convertible Clutch" (Style 9635) has measurements of approx. 11 1/2 x 7 x 2.

Wait for other opinions.

Thanks

Several of the C patches are slightly crooked, the quality is pretty bad, and the rivets at the base of the handles should be larger. I'd be comfortable reporting it.

Does any of you guys know whether ebay seller: baystateoutfitters is selling real coach bags?

Thanks! :)

AFAIK, they sell authentic but you're always safer if you ask first about a particular bag you're interested in.

Thanks for the help; how about this:

Item: Coach Parker Rosegold Leather Shoulder Bag Purse 13466
Listing number:120738638490
Seller:tlwesthoven
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Coach-Parker-Ro...490?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item1c1c956a9a

Pls excuse my ignorance, for I really have very limited knowledge of coach bags. But I am particularly attached to the Parker series, which is not a good thing for me, as they are now so rare:shucks:

I don't recommend tlwesthoven. At best, the seller mixes authentic and fake and at worst, those that might appear to be authentic could be "good" fakes.

tlwesthoven has been mentioned in the past as having purchased fakes from known sellers of fakes.

For clarification, I want to add a bit of information to my reason for feeling uncomfortable about tlwesthoven's listings.

The seller buys some of her/his inventory from other sellers and at least one of the sellers with whom they've done business has been selling hundreds of highly faked styles of Coach men's wallets in quantities and at prices that are unrealistic and impossible for authentic items.

The other seller, zimbligy was previously discussed and there were a few questions raised. http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-577470-146.html#post15556303

Although I don't see any red flags, there should be more clearer pictures of various parts of the bag.

I have a comment to make about this seller's listings.

It appears that she believes there's more credibility in buying from sellers who aren't "resellers" but rather, are those who "sell from their collections" because she has a statement to that effect in all her listings.

Buyers and sellers are certainly welcome to their opinions but in this case, the seller's current, completed and feedback listings indicate dozens of sales of NWT bags.

I have no issue with resellers but 1frazzledfemale is not being honest in her listings. She shouldn't says she's "selling from her collections" when in fact, that isn't the case.

JMHO.

I just had an experience with this eBay seller 1frazzledfemale (also selling under Specialk95 on Bonanza) A LV compact zippy wallet, listed on eBay as from a TPF Member and "from her current collection." She told me she's been referring people to the listing on Bonanza where she was accepting offers. When I noticed the eBay listing was closed down by eBay today, and asked, she admitted that she just bought it from eBay and didn't have it authenticated. So she was going to fight the seller she bought it from and it wasn't available any longer. She was selling it for much less than what she bought if for, I noticed after the eBay search. It angers me that she would post she was a TPF member and selling frm her personal collection, when in fact she isn't even confirming she's selling authentic recently acquired items. I don't know if she's actually a TPF member or not, I'd be surprised if so, so beware with this one!

I think the Pocket Purse had an open inside pocket and this one looks like it's zipped. My guess would be the Convertible Clutch.

With older bags that didn't have style numbers, please include measurements. Thanks!
Click to expand...

I googled convertible clutch and found out that it matched the bag. Do you know why there is a stamp with a giant "C" and the number 200? Is that common with older bags?

Next time I will include the measurements, thanks!
