AUTHENTICATE this COACH

[Bea3]

Got my ebay bag. Judging by look and feel of quality I'd say it's good. BUT just yo be sure...

Here are some photos:

It was so hard to get a photo of creed and these are really quite bad....

Good morning everybody! My dive into the purse bins for a local thrift store is over, and I have some things for all of you to take a peek at if you don't mind. We went through and got rid of the glaringly obvious fakes - NT creeds, C's on the inside C's on the outside etc, and I am now making the second cut and trying to figue out names if I don't know or can't find them online. First up, two bags from Italy:









Has anyone ever seen these? I found this: http://forum.purseblog.com/coach/id-coach-item-post-any-coach-item-name-355205-425.html#post24804256 , but it has a Coach imprint and the one I looked at doesn't. THANKS!

Hi everyone

Looking at men's wallets and came across this beauty but I am skeptical about its authenticity. What do you think?

Item: NEW! Authentic Black COACH Men's Wallet-Billfold F74279
Listing number: ?
Seller: rosicky58

Thanks

More opinions are welcome. But Coach wallets especially Mens wallets are highly faked and I would NEVER buy one from any online seller unless I knew and trusted them completely, and that they always bought their items right from Coach or an authorized Coach retailer.

I agree with Hyacinth that extreme caution should be used when purchasing wallets.

In this case, although it's a fairly new seller without a long history, the current listings seem okay and although there are several similar completed listings, they seem to be the same wallets that have been relisted, having gone unsold originally.

My concern with this seller is with the source. I looked at the feedback she received as a buyer and had I seen some seller IDs I recognized, I'd feel more comfortable. (Many Singapore sellers buy from trusted US sellers for resale in their country.)

In this case, I didn't see any names known to sell that way and many of the purchases are from Chinese sellers. (I didn't see Chinese peddlers of fake Coach wallets but I'm still wary.)

If you choose to buy a wallet from the seller, fund the Paypal purchase with a credit card for an extra layer of protection. And post the pictures here when you receive it.

Personally, I wouldn't purchase any of these wallets from rosicky58.

Hyacinth & BeenBurned,

Thank you thank you thank you! I shall heed!

It looks fine to me. I think the hardware is brass but some of the photos make it appear like nickel. You can see that the rings and the clips are brass in the last two pictures. It's a Baxter bag.

Thanks, probably won't bid, I find the price a little to high for me.

It's a standard tote made in the 80s. It is authentic.
