Item: Navy Leather Coach small round purse J5C-9525
Listing number: 200638214908
Seller: kristenwestlake
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Navy-Leathe...908?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2eb6f832fc
Comments: I was under the impression that 9525 is the serial number for the Stewardess. Is this a fake?

Yes, 9525 should be a Stewardess bag.

That has the wrong style number and I've never seen that zipper pull on an authentic Coach bag.

There is probably something else I missed...but definitely wait for Hyacinth to comment.

:smile1:
This bag isn't my area of expertise so I'll defer authentication to DemRam and Hyacinth but I wanted to point out that kristenwestlake also has this fake with a known bogus serial number:

Also, the one that I just purchased came today. It looks fake to me on the outside, although I notice no major problems with the creed. Help?

That bag is a scarf print fabric and it's one of the exceptions.
 
Ok these are my last two, I promise!

Ladies, could you kindly authenticate for me please? Thanks! :smile1:



Sorry, our main specialist in newer styles is in a location that's being hit by a former hurricane right now and she may not have electrical power or internet. When things like this happen we can't always answer requests right away and may have other things that need our attention. Please don't feel ignored if no one answers your questions.
Actually, we were fairly lucky. The hurricane produced a lot of rain and wind but was much downgraded from what they'd predicted.

As for the bag, I think it looks okay but I hope someone who has the bag might chime in to confirm.
 
please help me authenticate this coach bag

tia :)

Please request clear pictures of the creed and the horse and carriage plaque.

requested her to add more pictures, she said the creed wouldn't come out clear, however...not sure if this will help anymore?? i'm sorry if it doesnt :sad:

Yikes! Those pictures made me dizzy! (Sellers need to learn to use the macro function on their cameras to get good closeups.)

The new pictures aren't really helpful because it's hard to see details but I don't see any obvious red flags. But understand I don't see much else either!

If you want and win the bag, fund the payment with a credit card. Then when you receive it, you can post pictures of what you receive and we can look at them again.

Sorry I can't be more help.
