Can someone please authenticate this bag for me?
Thank You!

I'd have to see a clear, READABLE photo of the creed stamp, but what I'm seeing isn't making me happy. Style number 8968 doesn't come up at all, the year code looks like 1996 which was 2-3 years before the Bleecker line was made, the stretched-out leather at the top is a big red flag, the zipper installation is a mess and the zipper pull is fake and/ or not a type used by Coach, the hangtag is fake, and the poor purse especially the inside pocket looks like someone ran over it with a truck. Thye stitching at thye ends of the handles is also wrong.

The texture of the leather is also wrong and I think the insides of the strap handles are wrong too. Compare the details on this one to those on a GENUINE Bleecker in a slightly different style from a Trusted Seller:

It's very probably a fake, and NOT a good one.

BTW, another BIG red flag - "Leather Ware" is two words on the creed - that's a no-no. I'm even wondering if it actually says "Leather WarS".

Here's the links:

Comments:its funny, Hyacinth, I could not ever get to see the small shoulder bag that you posted a picture of a week or so ago. So as luck would have it I stumbled across what I think is the Small Shoulder bag, based on your earlier description :) ... If this is so do you know the model number of the bag? Thank you!
Any issues with the zip pull design on the inside?

Thank you!!!

"By George, I think she's Got it!". Sure looks like one to me too - the style number is 9530. And as long as the zipper is a Talon it should be ok.

I enlarged the creed and sure enough, it does say "LEATHER WARS."

Item Name: Tan Coach Bag

I know that there is no creed number shown, but I was wondering if the way the stitching goes through one side of the creed is enough to prove this is fake. Thanks!

That, and the fake hangtag, the "made in the US" creed in a bag with an extra-large turnlock that wouldn't have been used before around 2006, and the REALLY bad stitching in the hangtag pic and on the straps. About the only red flag it doesn't have is the Coach stamp on the turnlock.

It's fake.

ETA: The seller already sold that fake on November 21. The buyer must have learned it was fake: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tan-Coach-Bag-/260894018270?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item3cbe7ecade

thanks. I thought the Made in US was a clue. Most of those are before they used lining. I totally missed the weird way the lining is sewn into the bag too. What is really annoying is that she has a completed listing showing this as sold so this is the second time it was listed.
