Thanks to you (and all the other posters), that help the rest of us not so knowledgeable about fake/authentic bags, to get educated and avoid headaches.

I need to ask this and sorry, the answer has to be simple but I guess I am "simple er" :confused1:. When I click on some of the links posted here, I get to see the bag in question, and other times a whole page of bags that do not show the item number or seller, so how you tell which one is it?

The reason you can't see the bags is because they've been removed, presumably preventing a buyer from getting a fake. Unfortunately, with sellers like debbieb208 on eBay and her alter ego, gutsy girls on etsy, you have to be extra careful because they continue to relist and even if disallowed from relisting ( hopefully finally) on eBay, they many fakes do remain on etsy.

It takes a lot of "guts" to knowingly relist fake bags. Maybe that's why she thingks she is "gutsy." I'm glad to know that pF members are on to her. Thank you for all the great information posted here.

She's in violation of Etsy rules about the minimum age for "vintage" items too. I just sent Etsy a list of 15 of her Coaches that are less than 20 years old. Wonder if they'll do anything about it? And I suggested that they require that Coach sellers include a photo of the creed and serial number in all their listings to show they're in compliance with the 20-year-old rule.

I think both Etsy and eBay should require clear pictures of Coach creeds.

Thanks, so when the link takes me to a general page it means the one in question is no longer there, just like when it takes me to a... this listing has been removed, etc.. I get it now.

I do not understand (well in some cases I do), that sellers do not post the clear pictures of the creed, when the requirement/advice shows up as you prepare the listing of Coach purses.
