AUTHENTICATE this COACH!

[Hyacinth]

She also describes it as "Trying to get my money back for a gift that was never given".

I don't recognise the style but even if I did there's absolutely NO way I'd buy anything from a seller who REFUSES to take a creed photo or even list the serial number. If it was bought as a gift she should still have the receipt so why not return it for a refund?

Frankly, her story stinks and has more holes in it that aged Swiss Cheese, and I wouldn't buy from seller " dkmanomet " if she was the only seller on Ebay.

The bag is fake too, the C pattern isn't centered, the Carriage emblem wouldn't have been used on such a cheap-looking style, the hardware especially the rings holding the straps are thin and cheap and I don't remember Coach even using woven handles like that, and the Carriage emblem and patch are fake and only found on counterfeit bags, and it's not even centered correctly on those stripes. The price tag is also fake, the way it's half-opened you should be able to see the price on the inside bottom edge of the tag but there's nothing there.

BTW, the seller relisted - this should be the URL and listing number to report. Maybe that's what you mean by "two listings"?

Totally fake style, fake price tag, fake AND crooked Carriage emblem and Coach logo, and another BS lie from this scammer:
"Brand new from the coach store. Trying to get some of my money back. It will be shipped still in the unopened box from coach the way I purchased it."

BULLSHYTE.

DO NOT BUY FROM SELLER dkmanomet !!!

Here's at least one site where this CWAP is being sold. URL is tweaked to protect the innocent. Both styles listed by that crook may be from this site, googling the listing titles leads here and to at least one other URL that takes you to the same store. There are different sites selling the same garbage too.
www DOT faiena DOT com/Coach-In-Monogram-Large-Pink-Totes-Bwq-960.html

Googling the title used in the seller's second listing "Coach In Monogram Large Pink Tote" in Google Images turns up a remarkable collection of almost all junk and the sites selling them. Just one reason NOT to use Google as an authenticity source.

"All handbags on our shop are super high quality and fashionable, aaa+ quality. 100% replica to the authentic handbags, the same leather, same hardware and undercut costs to offer consumers very close to the same quality as the authentic handbags."

The rest of that seller's fakes are just as disgusting. DON'T go to their site unless your computer is thoroughly protected from malware and spyware. That holds true for ANY questionable website.

Hello! I saw this listing and have never seen this bag before. I asked the seller to post a pic of the label, but she said she it was new and never opened and feels it would ''lose it's value' if she opens the package? I can only assume it is sealed in plastic perhaps? The photo looks like it is not one of her own. She insists she bought the bag from Coach and it was very expensive. I have never seen one like this, have you? And if so, what is the name and style number? What is really strange is that this listing ended but she has another one just like it that ends in two days? For 100 dollars less?

Those listings were gone by the time I read this so, being the nosy and curious woman that I am, I had to "find" them and bags to see these lovely POS from dkmanomet.

I have a sneaking suspicion that we may be seeing more of her items coming from a different ID.

Thank you.

Hi experts. Newbie here. 😊 would like to ask help on authenticating this coach bag.
Picture of the actual coach bag is attached below. Seller says it's a coach willis bag, with serial number F1269-19031. Really looking forward for your help, is it legit? This would be my first coach, so really clueless what to look for to verify its authenticity. 😳
Hope the experts can come and rescue the soonest! TIA!

It's genuine, and has the earlier Legacy lining which is a big Plus. Cute bag!

I have a sneaking suspicion that we may be seeing more of her items coming from a different ID.

If we do, now we know exactly where to find the websites she bought them from AND stole the pictures from and where, buried in the "About Us" page, they're even described as "replicas". Even the Pathetic Few at Trust & Safety can't argue with that kind of evidence.

Here are more of the sites selling that shyte, just in case:
faiena.com
same as:
bahnma.org

link2lynda.com

h2oenergyspa.com

and other lovely Foaches are also available here:

susanfayne.com (whose Oh-so-English sounding name is on a website that greets you with "Welcome To Visit Professional Store!")

2014cheapbags.com

ganjianwei.com

robsarvis.com

cheap-bags-store.com

cheapcoachformintrade.com

cheapfashionbagsstore.com

tradebags.net - THIS IS GETTING "MALICIOUS WEBSITE" WARNINGS, DO NOT VISIT THIS SITE

bestcoachboutiques.com

Anyway that will give you a general idea. My stomach can't take much more.

Most of these either are the same core group or are getting their cwap from the same source - same crooked Carriage emblem and black Coach logo, same garbled English style names, even the same 640x640 photos. Many of them also peddle keychains, sunnies, hats, wallets, phone cases, and all the other usual ripoff items. Plus other designer brand fakes, of course.

I only checked the Whois on the first one, maybe I'll check more later. But the fact that the domain was registered in Oz BUT with the Registrant Organization listed as Privacy Protection Service INC d/b/a PrivacyProtect.org
makes me absolutely sure they're actually located in China and the laughingly-named "PrivacyProtect" is a smokescreen with other Chinese distributors using it to cover their tracks. That and the Chinglish that most of the sites are using.

I'm starting to think of them as the "Pink Plastic Gang" since that seems to be their favorite kind of trim.

This one is lovely, isn't it? From your friends at cheapcoachformintrade.com:

I did! I'm doing a lot of rehabbing right now. I need to dump them all into a pile and take a picture! The most interesting bags I got are a Bonnie Cashin double kisslock, a green nubuc Sonoma drawstring 4931 for $4!, a NYC slim duffle (I'm going to have to post it so you can ID it), a Legacy drawstring 9165, a slim satchel compact in flannel gray, and a 2003 suede Ergo hobo. I never paid more than $25 for anything. I also got some wallets and non-Coach stuff.

Please-- where did you go? Obviously to the mecca of Coach and other bag deals but I can't find it on my map...

Ugh! I just found another that WAS NOT removed! I don't know whether you'd seen it but I hadn't.

This one was "bought for my now ex." No wonder she's an ex!!

That's a relief! Thank you so so much. ������ i'll be getting it tomorrow for a $100. �� would that be a steal or is the price just right? (Again, a newbie, so thanks in advance for bearing with my questions) ��

 

[oldbaglover]

Hello! This is my first post, as I am hoping to find a name for a bag I recently bought second-hand.
It is a green leather, with the brown contrasting leather binding. (I suppose you can see these things in my photos, as well as the lining)

I was initially concerned about the plastic zipper, and the missing serial number, but after reading up on the Made in Italy bags, those seem to be actual things used on the bags.
Thanks for your help! (And sorry about the poor photos.. my camera isn't very good)

I love dark green bags and yours, Thrifted, is such a classic beauty!

We usually don't comment on prices, but I wouldn't object to paying that price for that bag.

Yep, and from the same group of websites as we already mentioned. The in-house 3-digit code at the end and the crooked emblem seem to tie it to the other ones.

That's pretty much what I was thinking, " full of holes" lol! That wasn't even her own photo. Am certain it was taken off of one of those fake Coach websites. Who knows if she even had the bags in her possession?? Might have just been scamming to get money into her Paypal account, is what I think! They were reported and are taken down already. I can't believe how many fakes are listed on ebay!

It is so nice to have this forum available to us. Thank you!

 

[CinthiaZ]

Please help me report these two in her completed listings. Hope it's ok if I just post the one link to both. A scammer like this needs to get kicked off of ebay. Like I said, I don't even think she has the bags in her possession. She is just stealing pics off of the internet and trying to get money into her Paypal account! Thank goodness that no one bought any of them. Here is the link
