To CelG

The brown and tan combination #10402 is genuine, I have a set of photos of a real one to compare it to.

I don't know the style number of the black one so maybe BeenBurned or Whateve should look at that one.

I believe the black one is a park signature swingpack, style 45026 (MFF).

Item: Coach Zoe
Listing number: 232288864310
Seller: newbodies
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/coach-zoe-b...864310?hash=item36157ec836:g:ZlgAAOSwuLZY3oGP
Comments: I thought this looked ok, but I thought some of the Zoe bags had the dogleash clip on the shorter strap. Or is that only on Carly? Just wanted to double check before I considered buying. Thanks in advance!

The bag looks fine and a search of "Coach 14706" shows listings with the shorter strap permanently attached with o-rings.

Just a relatively new and inexperienced member here, not an authenticator or seller. Does your browser bring up more ebay items for sale when you land on an item (?), because there are others of that model for sale. Just saying.
Hope I didn't break rules posting this, just my opinion.

Are you asking that so the poster will compare prices and maybe find a better value? Or that she should use those other listings to determine if this one is authentic?

If the first, anyone looking for a specific style should always do an Ebay search using the name Coach and the part of the style number to the right of the dash in the serial number so they can comparison-shop that style. Don't ever depend only on your browser or on Ebay's "suggested items" or "others also viewed ..." to tell you where to look for something similar. In this case there ARE other bags of the same style at better prices, but using the actual Search feature will be much more accurate and give you more examples.

If the second, that's definitely NOT a good idea.

We need to keep in mind that just because other listings that look similar and may be have the same style number come up in searches doesn't mean that all those listings that look alike are authentic. Counterfeiters can and do put "correct" serial numbers on fakes and if you don't know what to look for, you can be fooled into thinking a fake is authentic.

No one should judge authenticity of a bag just because the bag looks like it's supposed to look.

The following are 2 examples of fakes with "correct" style numbers:
6094 fake sig demi creed.jpg 6094 fake sig demi front.jpg
5659 fake scribble tote creed.jpg 5659 fake front.jpg
