The first one is a genuine Panama Legacy West Zoe Hobo from 2000. The second looks ok but I don't have a name for it.

Thank you very much for answering me! I was thinking of selling the second bag on E-Bay but didn't want to rip anyone off. The seller said they had originally bought it from an outlet in 2003 so maybe it is from around that time? Anyway, sorry to be such a bother but isn't this: http://cgi.ebay.com/COACH-LEGACY-WE...406?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4aa7e020ae the first bag I posted above? Except theirs ends in 9552 and mine in 9551?

Item: Coach Black & White Hobo Bag (Not sure of bag's real name.)
Listing number: 380308594562
Seller: magrewandthecowboy
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...2&si=o5foOBwf1yrhSOKkWmvV2levync%3D&viewitem=

Comments: I've already won the auction and received the bag. But I bought it as a gift for my sister and do not want to give it to her if it is fake. The creed inside the bag says: M23-9551 Here is a close-up of the Creed

Also I bought another bag online a few months ago, so I no longer have the auction link, but I have photos I took. Here, Here, and Here. The creed # is A060-2555. Thanks for any help you can give me! It is appreciated. =)

The second one is a zebra lunch tote.

That C pattern looks seriously off-center. There's no way I'd bid on that, but more opinions would help.

I'm also seeing the Coach name stamped where it shouldn't be. And the leather trim doesn't look like Coach quality.

I hope you weren't the winning bidder.

Do not buy from vicmikjon. The bag in the listing you asked about is fake and the seller other fake Coach bags:

Yeah I had my suspicions too, but I hit BIN to make sure somebody else didn't snap it up in case it was real. Now to email the seller and get out of this pickle. :shame:

You might want to direct the seller here because she needs to be made aware of the illegality of the items she has listed and sold as well as the risk to her ebay account when her listings get pulled.

Yeah I pulled the trigger on the BIN but didn't pay. I've already emailed the seller and also hoping with enough reports that paying will become a non-issue.

Without a picture of the inside and the creed it's hard to authenticate for sure but it's very unusual for a seller to have so many of the identical 9 year old bags and all are brand new with tags. Something is very strange here:

http://completed.shop.ebay.com/mary...omplete=1&_fln=1&_trksid=p3911.c0.m283&_rdc=1

Her feedback shows that she's been selling more of the same since early December.

Please wait for other opinions.

I'd avoid that one like the Plague. And I'd really like to see a few close-ups of the creeds and hardware. The hangtag isn't making me happy either.

I wonder if this is another of those outlet fakes being distributed through fakes sellers in the Philippines?
