I know the above are still pending (and I understand if time doesn't allow), but I also wanted to check this Janice's Legacy that ends this afternoon:

Item: Janice Legacy
Item No. 220848683322
Seller ID: oswald919
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/220848683322?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Thank you again.

Sorry, I must have missed your first post somehow.

1 and 2 are ok.

3 is a complete fake, both the month code (Y ???) and the plant code A are invalid, and the way the creed patch is worded doesn't match the year code.

The Janice's Legacy is probably ok but I wish the creed photo was better.

Thanks, I thought it might have gotten lost--sorry for bumping it (don't want to monopolize the forum). I see what you mean about #4. I won't bid unless it ends low and I'll use a CC through Paypal in case.

vealchopps also has this one, as mentioned by giagnm:

Thank you both! BB, it seems the "top rated sellers" are the worst offenders.

That's because they're Griff's "pets" and he doesn't want to upset his meal tickets by pulling their listings, so they have permanent "Get Out of Jail FREE" cards.

Yes, it's very sad.

Honest sellers are leaving ebay (or getting booted) and these TRS are taking over. :mad:

Brain f@rt, sorry, I missed that. The bag looks ok.

Just goes to prove once again why you can never depend on a serial number posted by the seller - that's why we need photos.
 
I'm also not sure about this one. Have COACH ever produced bags in KOREA??

Item: LEATHER VINTAGE COACH MENS/WOMENS BRIEFCASE
Listing number: 170695176377
Seller: russharr209
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEATHER-VIN..._Briefcases&hash=item27be39b0b9#ht_500wt_1269

FAKEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

I don`t know about the other one though...

What about the second one made in Korea?
The Korean-made bag in the other listing was deemed fake. Coach has never made bags in Korea, the serial number is invalid and those 5 digit fake serial numbers and Korean bags are discussed in this post: #549 - http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-sh...enticity-questions-94198-37.html#post18503288

I'm sorry. I just thought COACH hasn't made bags in Italy in 90s...

What about the second one made in Korea?

Hi ladies. I realize this one doesn't have a serial number, but I wondered if it was supposed to be a piece of luggage, not a purse...? I searched the forum for the seller with one return in the Ferragamo thread (asking for authentication, but no reply I could find.) I haven't seen one like this so I was wondering what you ladies thought.

Item: Large Brown vintage Leather Coach speedy bag Purse tote Italy
Listing number: 160651797717
Seller: aida9604
