Good Evening Authenticators,

Item: COACH Authentic Willis Black Leather Shoulder Handbag Crossbody 9927
Listing number: 181176812903
Seller: mnsmiley1989
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Authe...903?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2a2efac567

Comments: Please authenticate this Coach handbag. TIA

Looks ok. :smile1:
You might want to check the seller's feedback. The most recent neg is for an authentic bag but based on other feedbacks, it looks like the seller doesn't fully disclose conditional issues. Two other negative feedbacks are for non-receipt.

Wallets can be hard to authenticate, but we can try. Be sure to show the inside and outside and any buckles or snaps. Post the Swingpack creed and serial number if it has one - it might not.

We also do keychains. :D

(And we walk dogs, but we DON'T do windows!)

:smile1:

Hopefully you can help out with authenticating this wallet I bought secondhand.

Thanks-o

Also, Id like an opinion on this swingpack I bought off amazon about a year ago - I just noticed the hangtags are missing, but they used to be there, one pink, one blue iirc. It doesnt have a creed or serial number, but its a Poppy Madras.

please ignore the cat at the bottom - it was a desperate bid for attention.

Both the wallet and the swingpack look good.
 
Good morning everyone! Hope you're all staying cool! Picked up this poor gal yesterday, would appreciate a quick look! She's darker in reality.

Item Name: City Bag
Seller: GW
Item #: N/A

For 4.97 I couldn't leave her behind! Now, should she be rehabbed or used for tassels???? Thanks ladies!

I'm just going to guess that 9 out of 10 "Tafts" on Ebay are fake... just throwing that out there :banghead:

You're probably not far off.

Did you get stuck with one?

That's why I don't have one.

Probably. Apart from the creeds, which can look pretty good, but often has an incorrect plant code - a reliable tell on a fake "Taft" is that the stitching around the zipper is squared off, rather than rounded and/or the zipper lacks the ferrule on the closed end. Of course, having both of those doesn't mean a bag is genuine, but it is a way to rule out many of the fakes.

So netlawyer, for educational purposes, is this one genuine or fake? http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Briti...124?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item51af23c1b4
