The seller has relisted the fake:

Please help report. Wrong pattern, wrong hardware, wrong materials, wrong hangtag, wrong lining, wrong creed with wrong font and wrong serial number, wrong stitching.

Hello,
I am considering buying this Coach purse from a private sale. I have never bought a Coach purse before so I am wondering if this one is real.
Thanks,

It's authentic. I notice in the last picture that there looks like there are some marks (two dots) on the lining at the bottom of the purse. You may want to ask about that.

Looking at the seller's other items, the seller appears to purchase from the outlet.

The 4th, 5th, and 6th pictures have different lighting from the first three pictures (though the background appears to be the same). Wallets are hard to authenticate from pictures, and when some pictures appear to have inconsistencies it causes me to scrutinize the listing more carefully.

I would say that based on the seller's prior sales that the wallet is probably ok, though more detailed pictures of the wallet would be helpful. More opinions are welcome.

Thanks so much :)

The bags in the listings above all look good. DemRam answered your question on the serial number. The bag with serial number L05K-7458 was made in November 2005. The bag with serial number B06K-7458 was made in February 2006. And your bag with serial number B06K-7458 was also made in February 2006. The pictures of the bag you bought looks fine, but when buying on ebay (or elsewhere) it's always a good idea to see a clear, closeup picture of the creed.

Welcome to tPF! For future authenticity requests, please use the format in Post #1, as this makes it easier to search for items and sellers. Thanks!

Item: Black Coach Hamptons Carry All Purse Black
NO RESERVE
Listing: 130429427578
Seller: tikigodess
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130429427578&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Comment: Kindly authenticate pls? Is this bag roomy? Also, I'm looking out for the hangtag but just couldn't seem to find one from the photos. The seller sent me pictures as I requested them. I believe all coach comes with a hangtag (?)

Thanks!

Hi there, was hoping someone could tell me why these two exact legacy bags have the same last 4 numbers but the first 4 numbers are different. on one we have L05k-7458 and on the next we have B06k-7458.......I just bought one in brown, on ebay, with the B06k #. very confused by this. also, im not sure if i pasted these links correctly. any feedback would be greatly appreciated, as im hoping I didnt buy a fake! thanks so much!

Serial numbers aren't unique. The first 1/2 of the serial number indicates the month, year and factory where the bag was made and the second 1/2 of the serial number is the style number.

Because all are the same style, the "7458" style number is the same on all of them.

The three listings you reference have different prefixes because they were made at different times, but all in the same factory (K).

The one with L05k was made in November, 2005.

The other two with B06K were made in February, 2006.

They're fake. There are several things wrong with these including the Coach imprint on the lozenge and the shape of the T closure. The materials are cheap. If you bought these from Bonanzle seller poshpurgatory, please try to get your money back asap. That seller/scammer is also selling these fakes on ioffer:

There is also currently another Bonanzle seller selling these fakes using the ioffer picture.
Seller: houseofdesignz

I believe that poshpurgatory, houseofdesignz and a third ID, NativeByDesignz are all connected.

If you look at poshpurgatory and houseofdesignz listings, they have many of the same items, same pictures, same filmstrip format, etc. Also, poshpurgatory has an endorsement from the third ID, NativeByDesignz.

I wouldn't do business with any of these sellers.

Renee, you should request (or demand) a refund for the fake jewelry and also, leave appropriate feedback.
