VERY fake - incredibly sloppy stitching, an invalid serial number GAD-4437 where the first half is all letters and no numbers which means no valid year code, and a fake style number 4437 that belongs only to a Soho Striped Twill Hobo.

Interesting that the crooks are actually trying to copy the caviar pebbled leather from the Madison line. Not a very good fake, but the first attempted Madison fake I've seen.

Please report. I'm posting a few pics of the fake "Madison".

Thank you! I will report now! I thought it was wrong but just as soon as I think I know something, I find out I don't! Lol!
 
Item: COACH ~ TONAL PATCHWORK ZOE Hobo Bag ns fo873
Listing number: 300783562398

Comments: Just curious if it is authentic.

They both seem to be ok. However, the first seller has 2 other Coaches listed and has used the same creed photo for both listings. She lists a "Coach Purse NO190882" and that doesn't make any sense as a serial number, the creed photo is from her other listing.

You may want to use a bit more caution with that seller "mtiller92".
 
Please authenticate for me. TY.
The first photo is from the listing and the second one she sent when I asked for a creed photo...hope you can see it. The numbers are correct, but as you can see, it's backwards. In fact, I think all her photos are backwards. It threw me off at first and I almost passed over the bag because of it. She says the inside of the bag is black...shouldn't it be navy blue?

The picture of the creed won't enlarge. Can you try re-posting it?

Any seller listing "LV", "Gucci" and other highly faked brands had better learn how to take photos of critical areas. A webcam on her Mac or iPhone is NOT adequate for showing and selling those brands where close-ups of the important details are needed! Personally, I'd insist on actual close-up photos taken with a real camera before buying from her.

And yes, the Carly's lining should be navy - if it's actually black, find another seller. We also need to see close-ups of one of the sides, and the O-rings on the strap. But we really need a photo showing the true lining color and the creed and serial number.

Thanks for looking.
I'm attaching the photo another way, but I'm not confident that it will enlarge beyond a thumbnail.

I will proceed with caution with mtiller92. That seller seems to be using weird numbers all over her listings.
Thank you, Hyacinth (and DemRam)!!!
I don't know what I would do without you, and I'm so happy I found this forum. I appreciate your help so much. :)
