I don't recommend allauthenticpaypalverified. It looks like the seller opened another account.

This is the previous one: 2010precioustrends

If this is the same person, based on some of the feedback, I'd be very wary doing business:

You're correct in your assumption that the tonal bags were highly faked when they came out, probably partly as a result of the ease of faking an uncentered pattern.

As for recognizing fakes, that's hard to say; it's more a matter of looking at lots of the various styles of bags and noting the consistent details that the authentic versions have.

Your pictures are really small so it's difficult to know for sure but I don't see any red flags on any of the styles you've posted.

ETA: I see that the pics appear to be from current ebay listings and in quickly scanning the listings, I don't see any with obvious problems. I think the fakes were more common when the styles were first introduced.

I certainly don't mind your posting listings to authenticate but I'll also post some pictures of fakes (from ioffer) you to compare with other listings.

Thank you so much! The pics in my original post should be thumbs - if you click on them, it should open the full size image - I didn't want to bulk up the thread with the original full size ones.

You are correct, they are from current listings used as examples of various styles to see if there was anything specific you could point to.

Item: COACH Embossed Exotic Large Charm Tote Bone 14838 NWT
Listing number: 180553706445
Seller: treylite
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/COACH-Embossed-...445?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2a09d6ebcd
Comments: I have concerns about this bag because the creed doesn't appear to be cut as perfect as I've seen on bags that I know are authentic, but I'm not sure if I'm just over analyzing that. Also, would sellers add a double circle stamping to make it look like it came from an outlet and seem more authentic?

I'm really wanting one of these bags, so I'm having trouble objectively looking at the auctions out there. :shame:

Thanks so much for your opinions! :urock:

Please include a link to a listing or at least, to the seller's items. (I've added the link.)

I don't like listings with collage-type pictures for a few reasons.

1. Many counterfeit-selling sites use those types of pictures.
2. The pictures are too small to see enough detail
3. It's difficult to tell whether the pictures are the seller's own.

Please wait for other opinions on the seller's items.

I agree. While most of them don't seem to have any problems, you need to ask for clear individual photos of any bags you're interested in, especially of the creed patches.

I know COACH but hear it's hard to tell with shoes?

Item: "Brand new Coach shoes sz 6.5 100% Authentic" (I also know they are Ocelot and are from 05 or 06. :-D)
Listing number: 150553326589
Seller: bijoubella78
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Brand-new-Coach...26589?pt=US_Women_s_Shoes&hash=item230dad73fd
Comments: Also, let me know (if you wanna) if you KNOW/heard if they are comfy or not. :-P

Shoe information should be on the side of the inside of the shoe. See if seller can take macro shot for you of that info. It will contain the size, and name of shoe and the style # (like Q559 or something like that).

Based on just the 2 pictures it looks fine to me. I have Style 9063 listed as a "Convertible Satchel" OR a "Legacy Satchel". Not sure of the correct name.

That one is from 1999 (if that's a "9" after the H).
