Sorry we couldn't answer your question at the Ebay board, but posters get "pink-slapped" - have their posts removed by a Mod and get a strike against them - for breaking the Rulez. And three strikes in a day and "yeeeeee'r OUT !!!"

Welcome to tPF. Now you know where to come for answers. :smile1:

Thanks for the advice! I had been on a break from the forums. Didn't realize things on ebay board had changed.
 
Sonoma Pebbled East-West Duffle from the early 2000s Sonoma line, not the original from the mid-90s.

Yep, there's a new company called Lithium doing the moderation, and they apparently take their orders right from Griff. Controlling the posts lets Ebay continue the illusion that all the brand names sold on Ebay are genuine. :graucho:
 
HI Ladies! Anyone want to point me to a BALLY of Switzerland expert..I just received a fake bag..made in USA..prob China..nasty ebay seller doesnt believe TPF is a genuine authenticator..Bally bags have been manufactured presently & in the past ONLY in ITALY & SWITZERLAND, although Customer service tells me they are producing shoes in CHINA(of course)..I also wonder why Bally is so underrated in the USA??..but thats for another thread! They make amazing leather products..Ebay resolution will take care of it, but the seller has sold a bunch of GUCCI's.I worry..when a seller gets insanely defensive~they are usually guilty..me?I will refund anyone for anything,if they aren't happy..plus pay the return ship..its good business..sorry, but I can't find Bally of Switzerland..a point needs to be proved..Thanks again!! Sheri
There doesn't seem to be a Bally subforum but you might be able to find information on your dispute here. I see that there are Brahmin, Longchamp and other less common branded threads.

As for a dispute for counterfeit, you might want to post on the ebay forum. Before you accuse the seller, you might want to get verification that they do indeed fake the brand.

Thanks,Ive already spoken to ebay, I generally try to work out probs with the seller before going to resolution center..but I'm letting ebay handle it now..I'm also pretty peeved that several other sellers are copying my listings verbatim..stealing my goofy words from my goofy brain,,trying to use my reputation to sell their bags, which are NOT rehabbed..This has not been a good day..I can't believe sellers are so lazy that they can't write their own listings..I won the last complaint, because ebay can see I use a template of sorts with variations..right now I fel like a cartoon charachter with steam coming out of my ears..I write long listings,mostly humourous ~for my mom..these idjuts have been copying everything~down to my store policies..bad enough they steal pics but my WORDS?? I need to move to ETSY..a kinder gentler place..Sorry, I need to Vent before my head explodes.. I feel so violated!I work really hard, writing stories about the items I sell..beyond the cleaning, rehabbing restoring etc.. Im SO not in the mood to call ebay again.. I wish you all well, i appreciate all your hard work & your presence.. with my deep gratitude , Sheri
 
Hello! Can I ask for help in authenticating this?

Item: The Borough Bag in Pebbled Leather from Coach
Item number: 291070328531
Seller: lennus1
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/291070328531?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Thanks!!
I can't comment on the bag, both because I don't know the bag but also, because the seller doesn't have enough pictures and most (if not all) the pictures are stolen from other sources.

The gallery (first) and second pictures are Coach's:
http://milled.com/Coach/jOWGT0Z6vNNW5q6E

The modeling pics are taken from google images and the other 2 pictures don't show enough to even know the style of the bag.

Her other (completed) listings either use stolen stock pictures or don't have enough images to authenticate either.
 
Welcome to TPF.

I see that you're from the Philippines and as such, we need a lot more details about the purchase, the venue from which purchased, the seller and reputation, etc.

Unfortunately, there's a huge quantity of superfakes listed and sold on ebay.ph and in the Philippines in general. There are many "powersellers" on ebay.ph who have sold hundreds of fakes that unless one is an expert, those fakes wouldn't be recognized as such.

Please refer to post #1 of the thread for the posting format and information we need:
http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914.html#post24637163

Personally, I don't recommend buying from Filippino sellers whenever possible to purchase elsewhere.
thank you for the info...

Seller : https://www.facebook.com/shoppermines?fref=ts
- bought it from a friend of mine who is based in US.

thank you for that info .. I havent tried buying in ebay, as most of my purchased are from malls in PH.

Hope you can help me authenticate this one. I think It was bought in nordstrom, way back in December 2013 .. And came to me first week of February due to shipping...
 
Could someone please authenticate this Coach bag?
From Goodwill yesterday.
Approx. 13”w x 9.5”h x 5.5”d Strap drop 7.5”
Nice that there's a hidden magnet to keep the outside pocket closed!
I'm guessing 2001 Mercer Medium Soft Hobo #7422?
As always, thanks in advance!

And this one...also from Goodwill yesterday.
Approx. 6”w x 5”h x 2.5”d Strap drop 8.5”
I have NO CLUE what this is, as there is no serial number. Found a slightly different one on ebay, but it was "individually burnished" leather...and no name.
Round bottom reminds me of slim duffle sacs I have...but it's sooo tiny!
Would love to know name, age, style #...thanks in advance!
