Hi there! I'd love to have a couple of bags from GW authenticated.

Item: Coach Poppy Large Slim Liquid Gloss Tote Black 18673
measurements: 13" long x 12" tall x 3" deep with continuous chain and leather straps
comments: In addition to the creed patch there is also a small seam tag that says Coach Poppy with a heart. Is this the right name? And is this bag actually made of patent leather or some synthetic? The creed states "finest materials and leather" but it feels very light for such a large bag. Also the chain seems kinda cheap...

The Liquid Gloss bags were not leather, I think they were vinyl- coated fabric or some other synthetic. The bag looks genuine.
 
Is this a genuine Coach?

No, it's a Korean fake with only 5 numbers in the serial number.
For the record, jameslunemar appears to have already been caught with the same fake. It was sold on October 30:

I suspect that this one will be removed also because ebay does sometimes remove completed/sold items too if reported. ;)

I'm sorry, the Janice isn't authentic. The E factory code was never used for the United States, no exceptions. It also looks like the grommets might be silver.

The wallet looks fine to me. It was part of the Peyton collection.
 
Hi, can you please hlp me authenticate this bag.
Its a coach diaper bag bought on tradesy. After reading you site I became concerned because there is no serial number on the creed. The Creed is hard to read because it is very shiny. it has a made in vietnam tag.
Thank you

Hello.

I'm looking for a briefbag for my dad. I know some of the manly Coach goodies were 3 digit style numbers (ie 532 Organizer Brief) but have never seen an actual authentic creed and am wondering if they slapped a 0 in front.

5265 is a Lexington Brief, it's probably ok but the creed and serial number record shows at least three serial font changes over the first two years for that plant so it's hard to be sure about that one. The others seem ok.
5278 is a Spencer Brief.
Please check the pictures of the third one, the condition is a bit rough.

Don't even bother with the second organizer brief. It is in terrible condition. You want to avoid anything with piping looking that bad.

The first one looks fine but more pictures would help with condition.

The first style number briefs had the 0's in front. This is just a simple explanation.

The organizer brief is rather large. It has several sections and is rather heavy. If you are considering that style, remember it was made when laptops were in. Make sure the laptop will fit in the laptop packet. It is a nice briefcase. The 0544 is a bit narrower and handles a smaller laptop.

When buying briefcases you want to look at the corners, tears in the outer back pocket, and make sure the flap is not all icky looking form being hauled around in the rain. They may look like there are folds or creases if he flap got drenched in a storm.

I would say the older Lexington's are more feminine or may be considered a woman's brief mainly because it is smaller.
