It's really hard to tell. My gut says it's a close fake but I wouldn't feel confident enough to report it.

A potential buyer on ebay requested more pictures- which I gladly sent- she now said she is not interested because "Coach is not made in Korea". Essentially accusing me of selling a fake item. I am horribly insulted because I HATE fakes, would never carry, sell, or want anything to do with them. I am aware that coach BAGS are never made in Korea, but apparently accessories have been made there. Can someone please confirm this so I can assure this person? I don't care about the sale anymore, I just don't want people thinking I would sell a fake!!!

I would post pics of the visor or the ebay listing but I am not sure if it is against the rules.....

TIA

I recall a question a few months ago about the authenticity of a scarf that had a "made in Korea" label.

There weren't many responses but I recall commenting that there was nothing about the scarf that indicated it was fake.

I'm off to look for the visor.

Edited to add: I searched "coach visor" and there are some fake baseball caps that come up but the visor from the 17-feedback seller from Mass. looks fine.

I found what I was looking for. And it wasn't as long ago as I'd thought it was. In one post, someone asked about a clothing item and in the other, it was a scarf being questioned. It was pointed out that although bags are NEVER made in Korea, some clothing and accessories items are: http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-535153-283.html#post14564018 and http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-577470-96.html#post15343834
