The other bag with the pink lining doesn't have any photos besides the creed? How does the seller describe it? We can't authenticate a bag just with a creed photo, especially since the serial number isn't even readable.


I'd stay away from this one without more photos.

What about the first one? The Carly one? Is it real or fake?

Hello, I'm fairly new to this process so I'm not sure what a listing number is referring to exactly. Just the item number on the auction site?
I apologize if I did not provide the proper information.

Item: Coach Duffle Sac
Listing number: 170714107657
Seller: Cinza
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Duffl...WH_Handbags&hash=item27bf5a8f09#ht_3298wt_932

Thank you

Welcome to the Purse Forum!

You posted properly, and the "listing number" is the number used on the ebay auction page.

The bag looks fine. It's the Duffle Sac and that one was made in 1997.

The Carly seems ok but I'm not familiar with the second style. Please wait for more opinions.

Hey guys, I was wondering if these coach purses were fake? My friend is looking to buy a coach zoe/carly & I know they are the most commonly duplicated purses.

I'm seeing pictures of both bags as well as creeds for both.

The pictures of the bags on FB look good. Although the styles are highly faked, but I don't think the bags in the pictures are fake.

First time posting, so please forgive if I've done this wrong.
I'm looking at a bag on etsy, so no ebay listing number.

Item: Navy leather crossbody
Link: http://www.etsy.com/listing/83506098/coach-navy-leather-cross-body-bag-l4c
Seller: Luzianalade

I've asked for more pictures of the inside, including the creed, so I can add those when I get them if that helps, but I'd appreciate if anyone can tell anything from this original listing. Thanks!

Welcome! You posted correctly.

The bag is a fine looking "Taylor Zip" and it's from 1994.

I don't think any extra photos are required.

Welcome to tPF. You posted perfectly.

Do you know what color the bag is supposed to be? The seller doesn't state the color anywhere in the listing. The outside looks black but the creed looks brown.

Please request a clearer picture of the creed as well as clarification on the color of the bag.

If you already bid, withdraw your bid ASAP, and please report the fake to Ebay.uk.



It depends, Ebay UK is probably worse than Ebay US but neither of them remove even half of the listings reported to them.

I think it’s awful they don't remove them, some go for hundreds of pounds and buyers are none the wiser. This one only sold for £22 so I guess at least not too much damage done, but I expect they think they have the real thing! I am so glad Purse Forum is here. I got caught out before I joined, I knew the item was fake as soon as it arrived and the buyer would not allow me to return it. I opened a PayPal claim but they informed me I would need written proof that it was not authentic, as it would need to stand up in court. That was a hopeless cause and in the end I had to accept I had lost the money. I usually find PayPal brilliant and was really gutted by this. I have learnt from this and if it’s necessary to open a dispute I always choose “item not as described” rather than “counterfeit or copy”! It’s a shame you can’t authenticate more items such as sunglasses & glasses frames.
