"Top rated seller" or not, I wouldn't buy designer items from justakire.
She sold this fake keychain in August:

More of the same in July:

And it looks like she used to be on iOffer! Imagine! NARU from ioffer!

Yeah, I noticed those fake keychains when I started looking through her feedback. And those people left good feedback! But, she has some negative feedback too. Well, I am off to report it. Too bad sellers can't be banned from ebay for good even if they get good feedback. And yuck, selling on ioffer.
Since it was made in October of 1996, that's not a problem. How often here do we hear about styles not due to be officially released for a few months yet but that are already in the stores and can be bought or ordered?

If the second one is actually a Classic Shoulder Bag it should have the same kind of strap as on the Stewardess and Pat's legacy Bags, but narrower at the ends & widening out a bit past the buckle holes, what's usually called a guitar-type strap. The strap in your pics really doesn't strike me as an original Coach strap. Coach did use that strap construction on some bags but the kind shown below was a bit more common on classic styles.

The zipper is a kind of wavy on the blue bag, but I can't tell if it was replaced or not, no obvious sign of it. As far as the strap on the second one, I can't tell on that either, as I am not familiar with what it should look likeThe leather is a good match. Thank you for taking a look at them.

I wish it just was only one website. Unfortunately there are hundreds of them, maybe even thousands.
Hello All,
Would someone be able to take a look at this bag? Recently I've fallen for this vintage green of Coach....but would like to make sure this one is real. Any clue about the bullet on the tag would be appreciated! Thank you so much!!

I don't have a name for it, but it's genuine and made in 2002.
The bullet mark in a genuine bag is how Coach usually marks items that were originally sold in the full-price stores but then sent to the Factory outlet stores when the styles had been discontinued. However, not all transfers or "deletes" will have the mark, and the "bullseye" mark has also been faked and used in a few counterfeit items. So never use it as proof that something's authentic.
No I just ordered them today, the company can't provide me with a serial number or any further details. Their website states they are authentic, so when I asked for a serial number and they couldn't provided, I told them since they were a business I am sure they are aware it's against federal law to sell Fake Coach products, but I will post pictures once received.
I thought that would be okay. Obviously they have to make them earlier than the release date. I heard that this was a commonly counterfeited style. Thanks!
Coach sunnies don't have serial numbers but they do have certain information written on the insides of both arms. When you receive them, just post the pictures and we can look at them.
I'm not familiar with the company you purchased from so I have no idea of their reputation or honesty. Unfortunately, many of the companies that sell fakes "guarantee authenticity" but that guarantee is only as good as the company that stands behind it.
Don't worry about the glasses yet since you haven't received them. At that point, we can take whatever steps are necessary to get your money back if they turn out to be fake. They just might end up being the real deal. I hope that's the case.
ETA: I don't want to alarm you unnecessarily in case a review I found is inaccurate, but monitor your c.c. statement. If you paid with a credit card, you'll be protected against fakes and fraud.
