Sorry, it's fake. The pattern isn't centered corrrectly, the Cs aren't exactly the right shape, and the Coach logo on the front isn't positioned correctly. There are other problems that we don't discuss in public, but the ones I already mentioned are more than enough evidence to know that it's counterfeit. Coach wallets also never had two plastic ID windows even if one was part of a removeable insert - Coach never made those 2 pieces as a set either.

Signature style Checkbook wallets have always been highly faked and should never be bought on the secondary market. Sometimes even an expert can't spot the fakes when buying from online photographs.

Below are several genuine Checkbook wallets from the same time period, both standard and Mini-C patterns - notice the differences, like the shape of the Cs and where the Coach stamp on the front flap is placed. Yours is a combination of at least 3 different styles that was never made by Coach in that configuration.

Thank You For Authenticating The Wallet. I Do See The Differences You Mentioned, And Thanks For Including The Pictures To Use As Visual Aid.

They all look fine.

The first one appears to have a mistake that Coach made in the text of the creed. Obviously, the bag isn't leather but I am sure it's genuine.

This is Coach's picture of 8131:

The second looks okay but wait for another opinion because it's not my area of expertise.

The wristlet looks good. Often smaller items may or may not have creeds and those with creeds may or may not have serial numbers.

thanks BB
The purple bag is not actually a wristlet, it is larger and deeper.
I was wondering what collection it came from and when if anyone knows...

The second one is a genuine Janice's Legacy. Coach briefly used the old D plant code at one of their China plants.

Hi all, I am new here and I appreciate all the help I can get!

I recently bought a bag off ebay and I am a bit unsure about the signature logo as horizontal "C"s are connected on both ends. Looking at other coach bags, the "C"s are only connected on one end (there is a spacing between the other end) like this:

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ef_M4U2nwus/TAY2RtdyXxI/AAAAAAAAEqU/cnTHOx1gCeo/s320/Coach+C+Logo.bmp

Also I am abit skeptical about the plasticky material of the handle. Anyways, I have included pictures below so please help me tell if this is a fake bag! Thank you!

Title: COACH Rustic Vintage NY USA Brown Leather Briefcase Attache Laptop Bag Mens
Seller: preppyinconnecticut
Item number: 360745421162
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Rusti...45421162?pt=Laptops_Nov05&hash=item53fe1a496a

Comments: The seller may be one of ebay's "protected" but she has several current and completed fake Coach keychains so in checking her other listings, I found this briefcase.

The creed looks really off to me. The trim and stitching look messy and the lining appears to be different than the other. The text is also different from every other ebay listings for the same style.
