Comments: Is this item authentic? I am still waiting on a picture of the creed. I know that is imperative but I was wondering what your thoughts were initially. I will post the creed picture ASAP. Thank you so much!

I don't see any problems. Other opinions are welcome.

Since there's not much time left, if you buy it, fund the payment with a c.c. just in case there's an issue.

So far, it appears to be okay but please don't bid or buy unless we can see a legible picture of the creed and a clear closeup of the horse and carriage plaque.

Thanks BB & Hyacinth.

I just wanted to comment that people do make mistakes and the seller did the right thing. She ended her listing.

I've been watching that style for several years and there are some SCARY "good" fakes in that style.

(I will post some side-by-side comps of authentic vs fake on the answers thread, but in the meantime, I'll post them here too.)

Unfortunately, that listing and another of the same style are fake.

Here are some comps of the bag in question vs. an authentic one. (There are other problems but these are pretty obvious.)

Keep it in the dark? I don't think there is anything you can do except keep it in the dark.

Is there a way to prevent the "yellowing" you mentioned? It is definitely a different color under the flaps where it hasnt seen light, I'm assuming....how do you clean the white/ivory leather bags? Thanks for all the information!

You're very welcome.

I've watched that seller's listings and I know she sells authentic so I had no doubt this was one of those instances where an honest seller made an honest error.

Thanks Ladies. I am just really wondering about the contrast stitching as to why one part is brown & the other is white. But other than that, it looks fine to me. Would definitely like a second opinion! Thanks again!

It looks okay to me. On many of Coach's items, they use different color stitching, probably partly as a way to thwart counterfeiters. The more details they have to try to copy, the more apt they are to make a mistake and get "caught."

Hi, I recently purchased this brown suede Leigh online. When I received it, I was not sure about the creed, as most I have seen are in gold lettering. Coach told me that these numbers do match up to a brown suede Leigh they released, with a polyester Legacy lining (??? I had never seen that either!). Does it appear to be authentic? Thank you! (I have never posted pics here, so hopefully I am posting them correctly....):smile1:
