Please forgive me, I've never posted anything before...

My hubby wants me to pick out something I really want...Is this real?

Item: Coach Park Exotic Python Leather Carryall Satchel Bag
List: 321521374385
Seller: seed208
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWOT-COACH-...ALL-SATCHEL-BAG-TOTE-24384-598-/321521374385?

Any help would be appreciated!

Or this one?

Item: Coach Lg Parker Exotic Python Khaki Gray Brown Leather Hobo
List: 321519119968
Seller: rondivou
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-COACH-L...968?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4adc086e60

Thank you
Although neither listing shows a legible creed, both seem okay.
 
Please give opinions on this keychain. Earlier in the week, the seller used two IDs to list multiple fakes.

Coach star keychain
seller 180degrees
Item number: 131300025722
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-3-Sil...pt=US_Women_s_Accessories&hash=item1e9217657a

The seller also uses solen5 (on ebay) and himmel5 (on Bonanza). It looks like the Bonz ID was either NARU'ed or closed.

Comments: I'm new to vintage Coach and have a question regarding this Coach bag listing. The creed is stamped "Made in USA" and from what I can tell looks really good but obviously being new to vintage Coach I don't really know what to look for. Thanks! :smile1:

It looks like a genuine Envelope Portfolio style 5190 from around 1989-1990. But it looks like the inside pocket zipper might have been replaced. It's much too wavy, and it's also about an inch too short for the pocket.
 
Pictures shown for authentication assistance :) Please and thank you :) Id say its real... but the inside lining.. isnt like my newer bags, and the creed ..even though there is a bullet... doesnt feel as leathery thick as my other bags. And I can find very little regarding this bag online.

The bag is authentic but I don't know the name for it. Coach used that lining in many of their bags during the early 2000s.

The bag is from 2003 and there were never too many of them around at that time, so 11 years later you aren't apt to find many.

Here's Coach's stock pic:

Hey! Feel like I found some fakes while doing b-day/x-mas shopping along with (hopefully) legit bags.

Crooked fabric alignment on pocket, poor creed stitching, bag and lining from a different decade?

Seems ok but want an expert opinion. My sister will love me if I can manage this.

I know nothing about this kind of bag. Creed doesn't state where it was made and other bags online with better pictures of the inside but no creed picture don't have the fabric made in tab sewn in anywhere that I could see.

Creed says made in US, pretty blurry but think it starts with a number instead of a letter, doesn't look like any vintage purse, IMO.


Sorry for the inundation of bags! TIA.

The first and last are definitely fake. The second one needs a creed picture but I don't see any problems with it. The other two look fine. On newer bags the label is often semi-clear and small, and may not show up in a photo.

Thanks for verifying it! I'm not too worried about the zipper being replaced since I love the style and color of the bag but its good to know I won't have to go through the process to get a refund :smile1:

Thanks Whateve! The last one has already been removed, I reported the first.

I'll see if I can get the seller of bag #2 to post or send a picture of the creed.

Good to know about the clear "made in" tabs, never even thought of that!:choochoo:

I really appreciate your help!
 
Good morning! Can you please authenticate this purse and if its real tell me when it was probably made? Thanks in advance for all your hard work!

Comments: I bought this bag before seeing all the info about vintage Coach items on this forum and would love to know if it’s a fake or not. It’s in great condition and I use it all the time but I’m not a big fan of fake stuff and would rather get a legit vintage purse rather than keep a fake. Thanks so much for your input!
