Many of the metal rings on most of the bags I've bought directly from Coach in the last few years all have rings where the ends haven't been covered up or soldered. That doesn't prove or disprove authenticity. Please read my Sig under every one of my posts if you want to know the truth about so-called "authenticity guides." Most creeds in fake bags have correct spelling and grammar, and better quality fakes will have straight seams and correctly aligned patterns. None of those details prove anything.
1- I think the first one's ok. The stamp for that plant seems like it always had at least one set of digits that were a different size than the rest. I think their stamp was a constant work in progress, or it's possible that the plant used several different stamps. Unless there are other problems with the bag itself it's probably safest to give all the variations in the serial digits the benefit of the doubt.
and
4- I agree, the detail of the "puff" in the leather part of the turnlock doesn't look quite right either. I'd consider it questionable at least.
Hello again Ladies,
So Its a fake, wow I really thought it was really.
May I please ask what are the fake points on this one, so I know what to look for next time.

Thank you for reposting the listing and seller information. It's a real timesaver not having to go back and look for the original post.
With wallets (both men's and women's) we advise buyers to use caution. Wallets are "well-faked" and often look very close to the genuine versions.
The embossed imprint stamp on the front of the wallet is slightly "off", the stitching isn't as neat as it should be, and it's missing an interior heatstamp logo imprint. Without having it in hand, it's hard for me to prove but my guess is that the "leather" isn't buffalo leather and probably isn't even real leather at all.
But the props are all wrong. The tissue and box aren't like authentic items. The font on the tissue is wrong and the box isn't a type that Coach has ever used. All the paperwork, brochures and tags are fake. The tag on the lower right in pics #2 and #3 is a type of tag that Coach never used and the Coach price tag shown in picture #3 shows a style number of 6A06. That style is a women's slim envelope wallet that looks like this:
Item: Suede Pocket Satchel 3681 (China 2004, Brass/Biscotti/White)
Seller: Savers $18
Comments: I did some online searching and found pics other pocket satchels but I couldn't find a pic of the brass/biscotti suede/white-trim version. Apparently the brass/biscotti suede/brown-trim pocket satchel 3681 sold for $498 in Feb 2005, but the white-trim version was back-ordered at that time.
I'm pretty sure that this is genuine but I'd appreciate your opinions, both about the bag and the accuracy of my research. Thanks!

Item: White Bleecker Bucket 9305 (USA 1999, MFSRP = $258)
Seller: Savers $8.50
Comments: I found other colors of the 9305 Bleecker Bucket in the Wayback Machine (June 2000) for $248, but I didn't find this white version for $258. I can't imagine it is fake, especially with the original price tag - but then I remembered a comment from Hyacinth that "anything can be faked!" and so I would greatly appreciate your opinions on authenticity. Thanks!
