It was also suggested to me from this forum to look at Bonanza for vintage Coach bags.

Coach H9C - 6112 USA Vintage Wool Tweed Demi Zip Top Handba

I don't see any red flags but the seller doesn't show a pic of the creed and there's an inconsistency in her description.

The title shows 6112 as the style (which is correct) but the description has two different serial numbers mentioned.

Also, I'm not sure the bag is correctly described as vintage. It's from 1999 so it's 12 years old.

Please request a photo of the creed.

In the past, the seller had listed a fake Coach bag on Bonz. I haven't seen any fakes since: http://forum.purseblog.com/ebay-forum/bonanzle-fakes-421522-147.html#post15631668
 
It's fake.

Although hard to read, the serial number on cherryb_2008's bag is NT-4903, the #1 fake serial number!!

She also has a current listing for a fake LV bag.

What a pretty fake. Is there a genuine bag that is similar? I saw a fake Coach at a hospice store on Sat., it was falling apart!!! Haahaaa the handle was separating. The vinyl was showing. What a pathetic mess. It should have been trashed.
 
There IS a genuine style that looks similar at first glance to the photo of the fake you found but there are some obvious differences including the straps, the quality of the workmanship, the details of the Carriage plaque, etc. The style number of the genuine tote is 12956 (and yes, fakes CAN have correct style numbers) but I don't know the name.

Here's the actual bag and a different style from the same family showing the blue color combination - and BTW, many Factory Store bags are faked, especially recently. They seem to be coming from China mainly through the Philippines and all need to be authenticated:


Thank you. I appreciate the reply. I have only purchased one bag from the factory and it was a MFF bag - though I believe there was a similar editorial bag made. I think I will stick to the boutique if fakes are prevalent as I am not yet able to spot a good fake from a real bag.

With regard to the bag, the picture of the blue bag you posted is a lot nicer than the one that I found so terrible. I showed the picture to my mother and upon careful inspection she decided that your picture was the bag she saw. So maybe it was not a fake after all. I am glad that I was able to get some good information, at any rate.
 
Guessing this is fake, since I can't find another one on this planet like it, no matter what search terms I use, but just want to verify before I report -


Item: Coach Authentic Laptop Business Bag
Number: 140507863537
Seller: startrackenterprise
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Coach-Authentic...ultDomain_0&hash=item20b6ebd9f1#ht_720wt_1139

No negative feedback for the seller, but it looks like they were all fakes and the buyers didn't know!
 
I hope I did the right thing but I seen these at the Good Will and I only paid $5.00 a piece for them , could you tell me if these are real.. I have no idea what style they are. But these seem to be made really well.

How do I get my pictures on?
 
I am not interesting in buying this bag, just getting confirmation that it is a fake so that I can report it to ebay. The seller has lots of negative feedback stating the items are fakes.

Please do NOT report. There aren't enough pictures to determine authenticity but there aren't any red flags in the pictures that are there.

As for the feedbacks, most of the feedbacks were quality issues rather than counterfeit. I'm not convinced that the Burb sunnies were fake.
