AUTHENTICATE this COACH!

[iris520]

I'm VERY familiar with the name of the first seller, and not for any good reasons. You need to check the seller's Ebay Feedback record at Toolhaus.org before thinking of buying from her:
http://toolhaus.org/cgi-bin/negs?User=abawinful&Dirn=Received+by&ref=home

I won't authenticate any bags from that seller unless it's to expose a fake for what it is.

With all the Ebay forum changes her other IDs have probably dropped off the radar - she had at least 3 selling IDs and at least 3 posting IDs which was against Ebay forum rules. She sold at least one fake that was ID'd as a fake by at least 3 experienced Coachies including me at the old Ebay Shoes & Purses forum and refused outright to refund the buyer's money. She was reported several times after that for listing fake Coaches. If you use the Search link here at tPF, preferably the one at the main Coach forum index page, you'll find quite a few mentions of her. She also has a habit of using shoe polish on her designer bags without disclosing it and lying about some bags' condition, especially strong cigarette smells. NOT RECOMMENDED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

We can't emphasize often enough how important it is to use search tools like Toolhaus.org and tPF's own forum search feature to research any seller you're thinking about trusting with your money.


The second one seems to be genuine.

Wow! Thanks so much, Hyacinth! I knew there was a reason I couldn't look at the first seller's name without reading "ibinawful".

(EDIT: Also, I need to add that all of the pictures came from the ebay listing...except for the creed picture, which I took.)

Thanks -- I greatly appreciate it!

I probably shouldn't admit this, but on one or two other forums she's referred to as something very similar. :lolots:

Hi,
I am trying to authenticate this purchase I made at a thrift store today.

I tried to google the info, but only could find a few similar bags on ebay, I so
still don't know if it is a true Coach style.
Exterior is plaid with pink/black pattern with slight sparkles. Interior is bright pink.

thanks so much!

It looks good to me. Love that color! Your kids have good taste.

Thank you so much Hyacinth!! The thing that made me curious about it was the "Made in China" tag- it's like a white plastic.

Coach has been using that kind of tag for a year, maybe more. Nothing to be concerned about. Enjoy your new bag!
