Item: Lot of Four coach bags (Though, I'm only interested in one in particular) If anyone knows the names of these bags, I would love to know!
Listing number: 120866015601
Seller: pporwall
Link: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/120866015601?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Comments: I have received extra pictures from the seller on the one newer canvas bag and the hardware on the clutch. I'm worried that the price is too cheap, but they aren't properly named or categorized. Sorry I don't know much, I'm new to this. Thank you so much!

I can't help you with the clutch. The canvas Signature, large top buckle and small crossbody bags are Signature Stripe Small Hobo, Soho Belted Pouch and Scooter Bag in that order. They all seem to be ok.

Both are authentic.

The one with the bullet was purchased from a Coach outlet. The other might have come from either a full priced Coach or department store or could have been from an outlet and didn't get stamped.

The bullet is stamped on boutique items when they're sent to outlets to indicate that the bag wasn't sold at full retail.

Thanks so much for helping! Now, I like to shop from Coach and like their bags. However,, I am new from this brand, so I don't know so much about it, but thanks for all your information, and it helps me a lots!:smile1:

The light blue wristlet appears to be some type of soho leather wristlet.

I'd have to say that leaving a Neutral or Negative for non-contact and even after Paypal got involved is probably justified in this case. Can you reopen the case or contact Paypal again about the transaction?
BTW, I searched for both snobchich2617 and snobchick2617 and neither Ebay ID comes up in a Search, can you double-check the ID and re-post if neccessary? Thanks!

The sellers name is Snobchic2617, sorry for the mix up. She sells quite a few designer bags, including currently a Gucci tote so she probably needs to be closely watched for quality of merch.

Hello there,
I have a question about the coach bag. I just bought a Coach Madison Leather Maggie Shoulder bag (style 16503), and I saw there is a round circle inside the entire creed patch. So, my question is: why is has a circle there? and what's the meaning of it? because usually I buy a coach bag and it doesn't have it inside the patch. Thanks and a have a good day!

When there is a circle like that it's a bullet mark and that means it was sold at a full price store and they might have had one or two left and sent it to a factory store. So all your items are real hun!

Item: COACH ANDERSON ZIP TOP BAG DEEP GREEN LEATHER CROSSBODY SHOULDER BAG 9976 HTF
Item #150768117404
Seller: Rosebud344
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/150768117404



"W" & "I" in serial number?


Thank you.

With both an invalid month code and a plant code that doesn't match the plant shown in the creed, I doubt if that one's genuine. I'm also wondering about how the seller describes one end of the strap
"On one side, nothing remarkable. On the other side, the strap apparently was twisted (it came to me this way) and the leather of the strap is worn at that spot. It strikes me as strange because of the condition of the rest of the bag..."

That's NOT the kind of thing that would have gotten by Coach's quality control people. The strap would have been re-done. It's remotely possible that the problem with the strap happened after it was purchased but there's no way I'd recommend buying that bag.

Just let me offer a caveat. An item having a bullet doesn't prove authenticity. There HAVE been fakes with fake outlet bullets.

Remember that anything can be replicated including imprints, paperwork, tags, patterns, etc. All facets of an item must be examined for authentication.

seller 75soda
item # was 260941434225
Coach 3 strand floral necklace


Loved this necklace and its colors. No printed Coach on the back of the flowers.
If you can see it by this # is it a real Coach piece of Jewlery?

Please also include a link to the listing.

I'm not familiar with the item so I can't comment on the authenticity however, personally, I wouldn't buy from this seller.

All her items are supposedly new but all are without tags. Although it's possible to have an occasional new item with a missing tag, I see red flags with all NWOT items, all highly faked items and all private listings.

And in fact, there have been questions about some of the seller's items and her sources. This post is in reference to Juicy Couture, but there are red flags in her "wholesale" comment:

Hello,

I am new to this site and am searching for any information on the small wristlet/handbag I just purchased from a local thrift store. It was sold to me as an authentic Coach. However, there are no serial numbers, nor any markings of it being a coach. It is made very well, stitches are perfect and the liner looks great. There is one tag on the inside of the main compartment that states "Made In China". It is approx. 6" Wide and 5" High.

I visited the Coach store today and was told they could not tell me whether it was a fake or authentic due to it being against company policy, but the sales person went into great detail telling me about the hardware on the wristlet mimicking " Bonnie Cashin" hardware. Both sales girls seem to be pretty impressed by this little bag. I am almost positive it is authentic, but I have never seen one of these.

Any thoughts anyone??
