Ok, I need some help. Not too familiar with tattersall.

This says it's for sale by a tpf member, so seller, if you see this, I'm just double checking! :D

Thanks!

Both items are fine.

You realize they are free with the purchase of another item that the seller is selling, right?

Do you think the high quality fake makers make a lot of these lower priced items? After all, you can buy these items at a Coach factory store for $20 to $40. If I were a top counterfeiter, I would concentrate on the high priced items.
It is true that a lot of sellers with good records have sold fakes. But I wanted to point out that I think the majority of them don't know they are selling fakes.

Yes, there are "good" fakes of smaller accessory items too.

And regarding the sellers of fakes, whether "the majority of them don't know they are selling fakes" or not doesn't matter. As sellers it's their responsibility to KNOW that any item they list IS authentic. Ignorance of the law is no excuse.

Authenticate this purse:

Item:COACH lot of 3 Poppy & Sateen
Listing number:230607121633
Seller: shopdbo
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/COACH-lot-3-Poppy-Sateen-/230607121633?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b1416ce1

Comments: The seller has 5 listings of 3 purses each. In each one, it seems like the style number on at least one the purses is wrong. She said she bought these at a closeout center of Macy's, and those were the numbers on the tags. The center bag is the one I'm not sure about.

Thanks!

I feel uncomfortable about shopdbo. The listing definitely doesn't have enough pictures to determine or prove authenticity and the feedback is bothersome.

Although there aren't a lot of questionable feedbacks, the implications on those that are there are enough that I would hit the back button.

Can someone please authenticate this?

Comments: I was actually the winning bidder of the bag, but after reading through all of your comments, I got a little paranoid and worried! I'm fairly new at Coach bags, so I just want to make sure I got an authentic one! TIA for your time!

It looks ok although it's hard to find a bag that's sure to be genuine to compare it to. Pay with Paypal funded by a credit card to be safe.

I saw this bag at the Coach store and absolutely fell in love with it, but I am waiting for the Hyacinth color to come to ebay. I hope you enjoy it. I'm not an expert, but I felt comfortable enough to bid on this one too.
Now that you won the auction, you have to go through with it. But you can still get your money back if it doesn't turn out to be authentic.

Coach did make a couple white leather wristlets, one with a red heart applique and another with red and pink hearts, but didn't look like this item.

Again, I'd love to see additional pix.

Please post a link to your original question or the listing. I'm not finding any recent posts so I have no idea what we're talking about.

(Use the format requested in the first post on page 1 of this thread.)

Cricketti:
First of all, you're adding information about a post that was made TWO MONTHS AGO. How is anyone supposed to find the original post? There have been 2200 posts made since then.
http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-577470-781.html#post17994908

Also, you don't seem to be one of the original posters but instead it looks like you're the seller of the item.

a- since the original listing is gone, the original link won't work

and please DON'T post the new one since

b- sellers are not allowed to post links to their own auctions, items or services. Doing so will get you banned from tPF.

Edited to add:
And your NEW link isn't working either but as I said, you can't post links to your own items when they're actively listed for sale. It's considered Advertising and is absolutely forbidden under PurseForum rules.

Here's the item in the listing. I still do NOT believe this is a Coach-made item:

Are there other opinions on this item?

Hyacinth said:
For sure, I'd have to see a lot more details about her other items before I'd consider bidding. But as for the wristlet, the most important part of the hardware isn't shown in the photo although there don't seem to be any other red flags. I'd say probably genuine but more opinions would help.
Click to expand...
Although I don't see any red flags, I agree with Hyacinth that this seller doesn't have enough pictures in her listings.

I'm also nervous when I see brand new sellers with so many highly faked brands.

If you buy the item, please fund the payment with a credit card so you'll have an extra level of protection.

Is this bag authentic?
Thanks :)

I'm not sure that all the pictures belong to the seller. Pictures #2 and 4 appear to have been from a different source than the other pics in the listing.

Without knowing that a seller uses her own pictures, there's no way to know what you'll receive.

Sorry, I was so busy lecturing about tPF rules that I didn't look at the - mini skinny? or whatever it is. Not that I could even find it.

That IS a bit unusual. A leather pouch of any size should have a Coach logo on it somewhere but it does have an outlet stamp inside and maybe the charm took the place of a stamped logo. Coach did some other red and white items back in the early 2000s along with the Heart Applique wristlets and this may be one of them. Give me a while to check my catalogs and I'll post back.
