Ebay seller: shanahanlu_1974
Same Poshmark seller: shanahanlu

I'm surprised this seller is still allowed to sell on ebay. There have been over a dozen fakes removed in the last year!

This particular fake is interesting because on Poshmark, there's a beautiful clear picture of the creed. The same bag on ebay has a distant, angled and blurry creed photo, but you can tell it's the same serial number.

Poshmark may not remove the listing but it should be removed from ebay.

Ebay:

To show that the seller "seems" to be sneaky, I've included a pictures. By making the ebay listing's creed hard to see and read, she's hoping that buyers won't recognize it as the fake it is!

Comps of the front of the bag from both Poshmark and ebay:

ETA: Ebay listing was removed but beware of the seller!
 
This is another Japanese seller (who previously listed this same item in the past with a different ID).

The above posts of Hall of Shame listings from BOOM2HANTEN go back to 2014. And in 2014, at least one of the fakes I'm posting today was reported 7 years ago.

It's obvious to me that boom2hanten knows the items are fake because both were removed over the years and removed more than once.

Yet, they still get relisted.

And although pictures were probably posted in the past, I'll repost.

Unless something is done to wake up ebay, Japan and Japanese sellers that just being located in Japan does not mean the sellers are honest nor does it mean they abide by the strict anti-counterfeit laws of the country, I will not recommend ANY buyer purchase ANY Coach item from ANY seller in Japan.

My comments in this post refer specifically to Coach listings. I don't know a lot of the history of other designer labels though I know there have been fakes among those brands too.

Over the years, I've seen "trusted" and established Japanese sellers list and relist fakes, many of which were Korean-made counterfeit Coach bags. Reporting isn't always successful in getting the listings removed and when it is successful, it's after days (or a week) or reports from multiple users.

And over the years, when listings were removed (rarely but occasionally), they relist or hand off the same POS to another "trusted" seller account!

Such is the case of the above sellers.

The listing I posted last week from hokkaido-japan-island was finally removed, but today, there's another fake. (And the price for this fake!! OMG!)
I've enlarged the creed and showed it separately in addition to the listing pics.

BE VERY CAREFUL IF DOING BUSINESS WITH SELLERS FROM JAPAN!
 
LOL! Poshmark won't remove the listing but since the same person is on ebay, REPORT AWAY!!

This is another listing in which hell-bent-4-leather hid a fake in a lot. The bag is fake.

No sooner were three fakes listed by hokkaido-japan-island removed, there's another fake that was just listed. It was one removed earlier today and relisted.

Unbelievable! Another fake. (This is a seller with nearly 3000 Coach listings.

He has a typo or misread the serial number. It's NJG-9058.

Although I don't think the following listing of a fake will remain active on ebay (as it'll be removed, hopefully), I'm posting for the comparison in my screenshots.

Seller luwel-2890
I believe luwel-2890 thinks that a creed is a "COA" since most of the listings claim the bags to have COAs but I believe he's referring to the creeds.

OMG!! There's another! I don't know who (if anyone) is verifying these Japanese sellers' listings but they really need to get their act together. These are fakes that aren't even close. (And with nearly 3000 Coach listings, it's impossible to look at all of them to find all the fakes.)
