My internet security will not even let me look at their site.

With the exception of coach.com, ANY website with " coach" in the name sells fakes.

It looks good to me! Style 7789 is the "Hamptons Leather Small Hobo" and that was made in 2001.

Thanks for authenticating and dating it, DemRam!!

Item: Says coach patent sabrina but says style #12973
Listing number: 170584279404
Seller: sparkleglam711

Comments not sure this does not look like a sabrina looks more like a Julliane anybody know any info or is this a knockoff?

There's no way to tell if that's an authentic bag. The 2 pictures are blurry, improperly exposed and don't show nearly enough details to determine authenticity.

The seller also has 2 LV bags, one current and one completed listing without enough pictures.

If you're the winning bidder, please fund the payment with a credit card and post pictures here when you receive it.

It looks good to me, but I've never bought a bag off a seller before and I wanted to be sure. Thanks so much!

Authentic.

Please ask for a picture of the creed and closeups of the front and back of the bag. Style 12973 is the Patent Julianne. The seller probably made a mistake on the name.

Item: COACH Ergo Patchwork Hobo Bag with Matching Wristlet!
Number: 120668612212
Seller: nufashion

Comments: I have been desperately searching for this style in the brown for so long - but this item was pinging my "too good to be true" meter.

So I sent the seller this message:

What is the style number of this lovely bag? Do all the suede patches on both sides need cleaning? Also, since I don't have one of this material, is the orange C's section across the top (by the zipper) showing dirt/stain, or is the material tie-dyed that way? Thanks!

(Maybe tie-dyed wasn't the greatest term to use, but I couldn't think of any other way to describe that section - it's looks like it was manufactured smeared or blurry or splotched or something! I was mainly concerned there was no staining there because it would be a b***h to get clean in that area. Also, those sections are leaning toward orange-ish on my monitor.

And here is her answer - it this hostile or is it just me?

"The style numbr is 10809. Both suede patches on either side need cleaning. I don't see anything ORANCE on this purse, but none of the brown or tan Cs at the top of the bag are dirty or stained. I don't understnd the question re: tie dye? This is an authentic patchwork Coach bag that feaures patches from several style COACH bags, including signature, optic, scribble, animal print, canvas, smooth leather, and suede leather. I hope that helps"

Anyway, she's posted many pictures in the listing, but none of the creed. Can any of you auth it without a pic of the creed? The way the seller responded, I don't know how she would react to a picture request. This is a tremendous bargain if it's authentic. That combo would normally start at almost twice this seller's BIN price, so if it's real, I'm jumping on it!

Thanks in advance!

I would like to see a photo of the creed but so far, it looks okay.

The patches you are referring to as "tie dye" and appearing to be dirty are actually called tie dye by Coach. And the nature of that pattern does make it appear slightly dirty.

I agree with BB. That's the way the tie dyed patches are supposed to look.

I would still want to see a picture of the creed and the inside of the bag.

I didn't get the impression that the seller's response was hostile, it seemed that she was just clueless about what "tie dyed" means.

Item: Coach Pierre Le Tan Print Large Tote 14959

Seller: zjpatrick0

I'd love this bag for my vacation to Hawaii , but there are a few things that are ringing my warning bells. The seller seems to have sold a few of this exact bag recently, but all have been in used condition with pictures highlighting the wear. I have asked for additional pictures of the bag (ie. a front picture of the actual bag being auctioned). I know there a few decent fakes of this style kicking around out there...

Do not buy from zjpatrick0 ! This bag is fake. There are several details that are wrong, including hardware, rivets, stitching, stamping on the ring, and more.

Compare the details of the fake bag listing from zjpatrick0 to the authentic bag in this listing:

You're welcome! I'm glad you recognized the red flags and asked. This is one of those scary fakes that looks quite realistic at first glance. There's probably a reason the seller didn't show the front of the bag - there are probably some more obvious details that would give it away as fake.
