Item is Lavender Madison Julianne. I'm concerned because I've already been scammed once. Sorry there is only one picture. I wish I knew about this site before I clicked "buy it now"

Summer Purple COACH Handbag -- Brand New with TAGS!
Item: 180516163114
Seller User ID: busybabies
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180516163114&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

I hope you haven't paid for it yet. The seller's description of " MODEL # 2963" has me concerned but she just might not know what part of the tag indicates the style number.

There are several things that bother me with the one picture that she shows. The horse and carriage plaque appears to be an odd color. The pattern doesn't appear to be properly centered either. And the seller also sold another fake:

Please ask the seller for more pictures. Request closeups of the horse and carriage logo, the hardware, the creed, the back, bottom and sides of the bag. Request a photo of the inside of the tag too.

Edit:
Actually, I'm sure this bag is fake. Based on the things I could see on the one picture coupled with the other fakes she has sold, I am not feeling good about the bag.

Here's another fake from seller busybabies: http://cgi.ebay.com/MUST-SEE-BEAUTI...tem&pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2a0716b1f3

Eww! Some poor buyer paid $150 for this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180490727280

And another paid $143.50: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180491230294

Please tell the seller that you want a refund (if you already paid) or that you will not be purchasing her fake.

Update us on her response.

No, luckily I have not paid for the bag and when I questioned the authenticity, she offered to let me cancel my bid. I plan to do that now.

Thanks so much!!

You're welcome.

Another seller for the "favorites" list. :(

Update!

SHe has already relisted the fake: http://cgi.ebay.com/Summer-Purple-C...tem&pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2a079ae4d5

zad1999, Please leave negative feedback for this seller. She knows exactly what she's doing and doesn't care about ripping buyers off. Buyers need to be warned and negative feedback will do that.

Unfortunately, after the seller relisted the fake, a new buyer did a BIN and the bag sold for $150.

I wonder if that buyer would have purchased if the seller had negative feedback for selling fakes.

Can someone tell me if this sellers items are real? I dont see any coach stamps on the inside of the shoes. Specifically the portia flats. TIA.

seller name: syphtwin

It's impossible to tell whether the seller has authentic items because there aren't enough pictures.

For shoe listings, pictures of the insole are very important. It's also helpful to see a picture of the style and size information, usually stamped on the inside of the vamp of the shoe, or on sneakers, on the tongue. For sneakers, pictures of the back of the heel are important.

Based on the quantity of shoes this seller has and the lack of definitive pictures, I would hit the "back" button.

The photos aren't very good. You should probably ask for a better pic of the creed patch, but I don't see any red flags.

I asked the seller for a picture of the creed so here it is.

thanks a ton for the help!
