The listing you've asked about has 3 pictures, ALL stolen stock photos from Coach. Not only does the seller use copyrighted pictures but she doesn't even make the effort to show any actual pictures of her item.

And she makes a habit of not using her own work. In the following listing, there's just one stolen picture and it's not even enlargable!

In this listing (for a Juicy Couture bag), she uses a stock picture plus another photo showing a different style bag!!

So in answer to your question, there's no way to know whether this is a reputable seller because we can't see actual pictures of the Coach bag she is selling.

The seller sent me pictures from her phone because she is having camera problems. Should I post them here or just move on to another seller?
Honestly? It appears that she's been having long-standing problems since the use of stolen pictures goes way back.

As for whether you should move on to another seller, that's a decision only you can make based on your feelings about seller integrity.

Thanks so much for the quick reply. I'm going to move on. Thanks again.

bigben52582 is another seller who is known to steal pictures from designer websites, Japanese websites and from other sellers.

The pictures in the wallet listing you've asked about were stolen from Rakuten, a Japanese site.

If you search tPF for the seller's name, you'll find many instances where the seller was mentioned as using others' copyrighted work.


The seller owns a camera and does use it for some listings. (His own pictures are shutterfly pics.) That's why I don't understand the use of stolen pictures.

Since the item isn't available elsewhere, you can ask for pictures and post them here.

You might also want to advise the seller that he's probably losing out on sales by not using his own pictures.


Since it's the only one I will try requesting pictures from the seller and post them here. Thanks so much!

I am comparing...these two bags. Other than color the bags look alike. What do they have different style numbers? I kinda like the silver better, but I'm not too sure about the seller. Any experience with this one?
