Item: NWT Authentic Coach Madison Embossed Exotic Tote 14602
Listing number: 130467348723
Seller: muphin4

Comments: This bag was put up for almost two days and no one bought it. I ended up buying it but am paranoid that even though there were more expensive listings of this bag that people were bidding on, no one bought this one. Additionally, all her bags seem to be from the outlet and pretty cheap. They seem like prices for what she would have paid -- then why sell them on Ebay? Thanks so much. I'm just starting to get into Coach and have turned to looking on Ebay for cheaper prices but am afraid of fakes.

There really should be more pictures including a clear photo of the creed and various logos, plaque and hardware but I don't see any obvious problems.

Her listings do appear to be outlet items. The outlets have been having some terrific bargains and it looks like she's taken advantage of some of them.

You are correct to be concerned about fakes because there are lots of them. If you have questions, ask before bidding or buying. It's easier to avoid and report a fake than it is to try to deal with a dispute after you've been stuck with one.

Last week or so I posted a pic of the purse in general but not MY purse. Well, here is mine. A good friend got it off of e-bay for my Christmas present last year. She seems to know her Coach fairly well, but probably not like you guys! I want to know, once and for all, that this is real (or not).

Sorry I am new here and not sure how to get the pics nicely on here, plus this is from my cell phone, so excuse the poor quality. At least you can kinda see the numbers on the bottom I guess lol

Thank you so much! I never worried about it much until a friend posted a pic of her bag on facebook a couple of weeks ago, which I (and others) think is fake. And this past weekend I bought my 2nd ever Coach, from the outlet so I know it is real, but it made me question my e-bay one. I am very relieved. I can't even TELL you how relieved I am :-D

Although your links don't work, both links appear to be the same listing.

NWT COACH Horse and Carriage Handbag 15653 $398 Rare!
Item: 320632762861
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...62861&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1

Seller: gmarket7

I don't recommend buying from gmarket7 for a couple of reasons.

1. If the seller isn't responding to your requests before a sale, I can't imagine that they'll be more responsive if there's a problem after the sale.
2. The seller claims that the item was "************f0010]Purchased from the COACH Boutique Store in the New York City" [/COLOR]however the tag is an outlet tag so the seller isn't being honest about the original purchase.
3. This listing also claims to being a "boutique purchase" although again, it's an outlet purse and the red and white outlet paper bag is shown in the photos.

4. None of the seller's listings show enough pictures.

Based solely on the seller's lack of honesty on the purchase venue of the items, I don't feel comfortable.

BTW, welcome to tPF. In the future, please post in the format requested in the first post of the thread. It's helpful in future searches for items or seller IDs. http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-577470.html#post14912099
