Is it possible for us to post photos of the bags not just links? I want to learn more about authentications but the posts get deleted so quick from ebay.

I don't see why not, unless the other authenticators and reporters whompost them decide differently, and as long as photos are only posted if they're of an item or part of an item that members really need to see or be warned about. Obvious fakes like Made in Korea bags really don't need photos, the creed and serial number photo(s) should be self-explanatory. it If the photos are very large, please post them as thumbnails. But we don't want to get this board too full of photos of every single reported listing because then it becomes a bandwidth issue for the website. Usually if you visit this thread once or twice a day, you'll be able to view the links before the listings are deleted.

It takes time to post photos since it's a 2-step process - they have to be added to a file in our computer before we can post them here, and then added to our post. Add to that the time it actually takes to report them to Ebay or whoever. Often time is something we don't have when we're in the middle of reporting fakes. So posters have to decide that for themselves.

More important are the URL, the listing number if applicable, the seller's name or site ID, and personally I like to Copy & Paste the actual listing title in case it disappears and the seller relists it using the same title, which they usually do, since dishonesty often goes hand-in-hand with laziness.

Another scary good looking 1941 bag!
Fake tooled tea rose Rogue 25

Too good not to share: Coach Black Rogue 25… https://item.mercari.com/gl/m33846641170/

Seller: Evelyn's Closet

Note the bogus two letters EK which means nothing. They did put the right style number however. The lining is all wrong. Creed patch is stamped crooked. The verbage is all wrong, something similar to what you'd find in a vintage Coach. I did notice the key fob's Turnlock flap is NOT as pointy and triangular as the ones I have seen on most fakes! It looks pretty close to the real one.

Please do not buy this bag! Don't fall for that Nordstrom receipt either! Screenshot_20180921-141807.jpeg
