Hi ladies,

Seller : malscine
Link: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=623851891

Its just the first two pictures - the last two belong to a different listing.

I'd appreciate your thoughts!

I found a woman selling coach purses off of craigslist.
Link - http://denver.craigslist.org/clo/3972569213.html

I am having her send me pictures of the creed and stuff. So far I have only got the pictures for this purse. Still waiting on the others.
Please authenticate. TIA

The first black one is fake. The others seem okay but I wouldn't recommend buying without seeing the creeds.

One look at the off-center C pattern shows that it's fake. Don't waste any more of your time.

Also, style number -6094 usually with A2J in front of it has been used in thousands of fakes and does NOT belong with this style bag. It's always a good Idea to check either my Fake Numbers List here at tPF or Daria48's over at Ebay before bidding on or buying ANY Coach.

The third one's not giving me a warm fuzzy feeling either.

Click the "prohibited" button at the top of the listing. If there are enough flags, CL will remove the listing.

Could someone please authenticate this for me? Creed is J4B-9948.
It's black leather and measures about 7" high by 10 1/2" across by 3" wide.

Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks.

Ah, the famous Bag With Two Names - Genuine Canterbury/Nottingham Bag. The name will depend on whether it was sold in 1994 or 1995:

1. The pattern appears larger than it should be.
2. The bag is smaller than it should be
3. The buckle hardware beneath the handles (front and back of the bag) looks larger than it should be
4. The hangtags seem to have the wrong font and are the wrong shape
5. The pattern isn't properly centered
6. The creed is the wrong type of leather
7. The creed is imprint is uneven
8. The creed is missing the horse and carriage stamp above "Coach"

Other opinions are welcome.

I've attached some side by side pictures comparing this listing from JohnnyConlisk (also johnny-sells on ebay) to another listing for the same style, 16260 to try to point out my concerns.

I'd love to know where the seller got it. It reminds me of some of the fakes from the Philippines.

Probably got it from here.. You gals can't imagine the amount of fake purses here. It's frustrating for someone who saves and longs for an authentic and gets scammed with a fake! A lot of the suppliers who supply the fakes here get it from China or locally made. What makes it worse is that on ebay Philippines, a lot of sellers, sell these fakes as authentic with the actual price of an original. Only someone with a keen eye will be able to spot it. I wish we had the same policy as your country where in counterfeit items are illegal because that's not the case here. It's crazy! And another worse thing, we have no Coach stores here yet! We have everything else but no COACH. ARGH!!!

PS: I'd like to thank you and Hyacinth for providing me with such wisdom on spotting fakes. I really appreciate the information you gals give on this site. I have the utmost respect for the ladies that help each other out in this forum. As we say thank you in the Philippines, Salamat!
