Thank you!!

1- seems to be a genuine Large Legacy Duffle Sac
2- we do NOT recommend buying anything from that seller. Search this thread and Toolhaus,org for that ID. It was discussed just a few days ago
3- we can't authenticate without better photos, especially of the creed patch and serial number.
4- genuine Retro Duffle Sac
 
Item: Gold (Nylon?) Hamptons pouch or wristlet
Seller: Savers Thrift Store $7.50 after discount
Dimensions: 5" high, 9" wide, and 3.5" deep

Comments: I will post additional pics with the next message. Please authenticate thank you!

Sellers aren't allowed to say that they don't know if an item is authentic. If they don't know, they shouldn't list it. You could have reported this listing for having a disclaimer. This listing was already in the Hall of Shame, which is where we post listings of fakes so people will report them and get them removed.

Well, thank you.

So, I need to check the "Hall of Shame" before asking in this thread?
 
More pics of the little gold pouch. It's really dirty and may need a trip through the washer! They had the matching large gold hobo there for $15 (after discount) but I left it there because it was so badly stained I didn't think it could be saved.

Geez. I got this all wrong. I should have read the 1st post. I'm sorry!!!



Item: NWT AUTHENTIC COACH 16022 MIA BIAS OP ART MAGGIE HANDBAG

Listing number: 290660069479
Seller: paris-lovers
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290660069479&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

Comments: This bag looked good to me, minus the fact they took a pic of the back instead of the front, but now I'm starting to doubt the authenticity. Long story short, I havent recived it yet (it was just mailed today).
The pictures aren't adequate for authentication and I'm not certain that the listing shows the seller's own pictures of the bag. Since it's already been mailed, please post pictures of the bag and creed when you receive it.
 
Item:COACH Wristlet, Signature Collection, Gold Jacquard, Classic
Listing number: 150748987036
Seller: nanrn1
Link:http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Wrist...036?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item231956fe9c
Comments: the larger version is on Coach.com but the logo on it isn't embossed - it is one of those metal-looking glued on things. I'm 95% sure this is real, but I have never seen this.

Item:LEATHER COACH PURSE, WHITE WITH SUEDE COLOR ACCENTS
Listing number: 320840436666
Seller: countrylane47
Link:http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEATHER-COA...666?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4ab3948bba
Comments: I have never seen this with green piping, plus what is the point of the blank leather patch inside?

thanks!

I can't help with the first one, but the second one is fake. The Dots have incorrect colors & patches, the hardware is wrong, and it was never made with green trim.
I missed the second one but the first looks good.
 
Item: Coach Bleecker Signature
Listing number: 330675402379
Seller: bryan47caveman
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/330675402379?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
Comments: does this look ok?


Item: Brown Coach Handbag
Listing number: 180805196933
Seller: meryteo
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/180805196933?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
Comments: does this look ok?

1- for some reason the seller's photos won't enlarge and there's no way to see any details. Small photos like that can also be a sign that the photos were stolen from another source.

2- the second one looks ok but more opinions would help.

The Small Bleecker looks ok.

1. The bag in the listing appears to be authentic but as Hyacinth pointed out, there's a possibility that the pictures aren't the seller's own. Addiitonally, based on the seller's description, the seller doesn't know much about the bag. I strongly doubt that the seller spoke to "sales personnel at Coach" and if she did, I'm not sure how knowledgeable they would be about a 5 year old bag.

Another thing that bothers me about this seller's listing(s) is that the seller sold the same bag with a wallet on January 28 in this listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Very-Rare-C...105?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4cfdca9ef1

And now, 3 days later, the same items were sold in 2 separate listings:
Wallet: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Extremely-R...224?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4cfdca6ca0
bag: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Extremely-R...379?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4cfdca368b

#2: Looks good.
 
Item: Gold (Nylon?) Hamptons pouch or wristlet
Seller: Savers Thrift Store $7.50 after discount
Dimensions: 5" high, 9" wide, and 3.5" deep

Authentic. It's a Hamptons weekend top handle pouch.
 
Can anyone help authenticate this? I think it's ok but is the interior supposed to be any color other than black?

TIA

I don't feel comfortable with this listing or others from seller leahx83.

Generally, we tell buyers to be very careful buying wallets because they're often well-faked and sometimes they're nearly impossible to authenticate with pictures.

In this case, there are some red flags that would make me hit the "back" button on leahx83.

1. Gathered wallets and bags are highly faked
2. Pictures in the listing are too blurry to see the necessary details
3. Seller had another sold listing for the same item and though not necessarily indicative of fake, in this case, it concerns me.
4. Another listing that the seller sold pf the same style wallet (different color) uses only stolen stock photos

Authentic. It's a Hamptons weekend top handle pouch.

That's great, thank you! Do you happen to know the style number, if it isn't too much trouble?

I went to Savers tonight because they give a Senior Discount of 25% off for age 55 and older on Tuesdays, and sadly I fall into that group!

My total was $11.37 because I also bought a Tory Burch wallet for $3! See: http://forum.purseblog.com/tory-burch/authenticate-tory-burch-617232-18.html#post20921732

I didn't have exact change but I didn't want to get a lot of singles and pennies back so I gave the cashier, a young guy, $22.02 and that completely threw him for a loop! He kept trying to give me $2.02 cents back so that he could take my balance out of the $20. Finally I told him "Just key it into the cash register, trust me it will be fine!"

He looked surprised when he saw the results but he gave me the $10.65 change without comment. I couldn't resist so I said to him "You know, people who qualify for the Senior Discount can do that in their heads!" He looked offended and said "I'm good at math!"

I just smiled and left but I wanted to say "Okay, let's take away your calculator and computer and see which one of us wins!"

I have one version of the pouch listed as 44714 but I think there were other similar satin versions with other style numbers.

I had to laugh at your "change" story because I run into that all the time. Even some of the smartest kids don't know how to count back change or figure out what to do if they've already rung in the amount and you come up with the extra 3 cents to avoid getting back 97 cents. As a former elementary school teacher, I assure you that they are taught how to count change but since they don't have to practice it, they forget how to do it.
