COACH Hall of Shame - Post Coach fakes here!

TPF may earn a commission from merchant affiliate
links, including eBay, Amazon, and others

This is the same seller of fakes who used botticelli4grace (now NARU) on ebay, absolutelybetterpursedeals (now NARU) on ebay and the same or similar IDs on other sites.

PLEASE REPORT: On Tradesy, she has the same fake that was her undoing on ebay which resulted in her suspension.
Tradesy ID: betterluster and her store, Absolutely Better Purse Deals :
https://www.tradesy.com/bags/coach-vintage-purse-messenger-bag-brown-11787868/?tref=closet

(Note that yesterday, her Tradesy ID was Botticelli4grace's Sold Items on Tradesy
but it's been changed to BETTERLUSTER.

Beware. The seller mixes authentic and fakes and makes no effort to learn how to identify fakes nor to authenticate her items.

Did you see her "About the Seller" blurb? "...Carrying a FAKE depreciates all our saving and hard work for the purse of our dreams!"
Yes, I did see botticelli4grace aka betterluster 's hypocritical statement.

And BTW, I think I forgot to post the listing with the fake bag!

https://www.tradesy.com/bags/coach-vintage-purse-messenger-bag-brown-11787868/?tref=closet

ETA: WTH! The listing is still posted in Absolutely Better Purse Deals https://www.tradesy.com/closet/betterluster/ 's closet but it's not working when you click!
 
These listings were removed from Ebay several times and now they're listed on Tradesy with the same pictures are previously posted on ebay.

Seller Grace F.

Grace can run but she cannot hide! :nono:
Actually she can hide since I can't get the links to work!

I don't know whether this link will work:
https://www.tradesy.com/closet/5371732/


Maybe this works?
https://www.tradesy.com/accessories...-keyfobkeychain-rose-gold-heart-key-11050654/

Well, that doesn't work either.

Here are the pictures from the listing:

Coach didn't remove this fake between the time I found and reported it and someone purchased.

This post shows comps with the obvious differences:

Here's the previous post:

UGH!! DO NOT BUY FROM SHANED888 or sardenso

The previous listing from shaned888 was removed and it is now relisted by sardenso.

The same pictures are used in the new listing.

Pictures used by the seller using two different IDs:
UPDATE!

No need to watch or avoid sardenso. The seller was NARU'ed!

ew, pink!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Mini-...079044?hash=item51df804f44:g:SvoAAOSw5IJWesl~

I thought this seller was pretty good at only listing authentic but I guess I was wrong.
Several years ago, azuremerekat had a bad history of listing and mixing fakes among his (and it's a guy) listings.

IIRC, he was restricted from listing Coach and once reinstated, he was really good about posting on the ebay fashion boards.

Perhaps he's getting a bit overconfident in his expertise?!

Although this listing has ended, I'm hopeful that more reports might result in the removal, hopefully before the buyer pays for it.

The seller has come to the ebay boards asking about the bags.

Although the listings were removed, I found caches:

We discussed other fake cosmetic cases including Pepto-Bismol Pink back on Dec 23, 2013 with the same fake style and serial number G0D-7171

and JOODLZ also posted pics of a GENUINE one here:
http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-123.html#post24892055

The fakes are usually (but not always) the basic Skinny Case design, but style 7171 belongs to a TURNLOCK Case.

Here is the genuine 7171 and a green fake we found in December 2013

ETA - I may have just found another fake, please check the ATC thread and tell me what you think
