The listing posted above was removed (and the seller's account now has a counterfeit ding).
But I wonder do you think that bag was fake?
That bag was previously listed, unsold and the relisted. (It was the relisted one that was removed.)
Both the black and the yellow appear fine to me.

I found it in her completed listings and I don't believe that bag is fake! The creed shows that it's a limited edition though I can't read the stats. (The seller states that it's 95 of 600.)

PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THE HALL OF SHAME UNLESS ITEMS ARE 100% KNOWN TO BE FAKE!I don't see any problem with the black one either, and the serial number and creed are exactly what they should be for that style. From 2003's Limited Edition Wayback pages (no picture but the description fits):

When posts are made in this subforum, members (and lurkers) often improperly assume that every post is accurate and that every listing posted is fake and they report those listings.
In the last several months, there have been countless posts on ebay's discussion boards as well as on TPF from sellers who have been restricted, or worse, banned from ebay because they supposedly listed a fake.
But as is demonstrated in this case, the listing presumably reported and removed is NOT for a counterfeit item and the bag simply had a serial number that the poster wasn't familiar with. But that doesn't mean that the bag is fake!
Before posting to the hall of shame, please verify your suspicions on the Authenticate This COACH thread so you don't unfairly get a seller's account dinged. Once those dings are in place, getting them removed is next to impossible!
