I purchased this from Ebay & received it today and would like if someone could authenticate it please. I just checked on Ebay and the link should be good and it is towards the bottom of the page. Thank you for all your time & trouble :D:D

Item: Coach Vachetta Legacy Turnlock Wallet in Walnut
Listing#: 170499707710
Seller: ckimball1123
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170499707710&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Comments: The description states that there is a spot on the back of the wallet, which you can clearly see in the pic. But upon inspection of the wallet when I received it, there is no spot anywhere :confused1: Therefore, it has me wondering if this is a switch/fake????:sad::wondering:sad::wondering. I have pics if the link does not work.

I just noticed on the inside of this wallet just above the embossed gold Coach there is a faint embossed stamp with the letters "ES". I'm getting more suspicious and will report her to Ebay if this is fake :pout:

Do you have pictures of the wallet you received? I wonder if the seller had two of these. The ES stamp stands for "Employee Sale" - it means it was originally sold to and purchased by a Coach employee.

Oh...the stamp makes sense! The seller claims that she originally purchased this on ebay and knows that it's authentic. She said she cleaned a spot on the wallet and it originally looked like it left a larger spot but once it completely dried it was all gone. What worried me is that I did a search on PF and the seller came up twice for fakes :-s. Do you want me to take pics and post them?

I think that's probably what the seller did - cleaned the spot and it disappeared. Looking at the picture in the auction, I can make out the ES stamp in the third picture. The wallet looks good to me, though it would be helpful to see a closeup picture of the Coach stamp on the inside, the underside of the turnlock, and a picture of the lining.

As for what you mentioned, awhile ago, the seller had listed a tote on Bonanzle and ebay without authenticating before listing:

Well I took the pics that you asked for but now I can't get them to upload because I have gone over my limit. I tried to find a way to delete the other pics but nowhere does it give me that option :confused1::confused1::confused1:

Were you trying to attach the photos using the Manage Attachments feature? Try uploading the pics to a free photohosting site like Photobucket and then post the links to the pics here.
