This is what I was afraid would be the recent trend of the counterfeiters - returning Fakes to Dept stores and the Dept stores turning around and selling it to customers. I think I'll be buying my Coach items from the Boutiques or the Outlets from now on. I don't think I'll be buying Coach from any Dept stores again unless I'm 200% sure they're authentic!

It really was great of you to notify them of the Fake or else they would've sold it to some unsuspecting customer!


When speaking to the SA she informed me that she specialized in Dooney and Burke and wasn't familiar with the other brands. How scary is that??!! But the manager could tell it was a fake. You would think $$$ amount would require a manager approval for returns. I went ahead a wrote a letter to the corporate office relaying my concern that as a consumer I rely on Macy's for the authenticity of their products. The purse was almost $350.

I was on the up escalator when I noticed the fake out of the corner of my eye. Had to make a u-turn to the down escalator to get a better look at it.
 
Last fall while walking through Macy's , this one used to be a Kaufmann's dept. store,
I saw two fake Coach bags. One was a Carly and I don't remember the other one , but both were fake. This store only carries D&B , no Coach, so I guess they took them back as a return. I sure hope nobody purchased them thinking they were real.
I wanted to call it to the SA 's attention but as usual nobody was working in the department.
 
What is scary with this trend is if someone unknowingly buys a fake Coach from the dept. store then decides to return it for some other reason. There is a possibility that another SA will take care of the return and discover it's a fake and then accuse the buyer of trying to return a fake Coach.
 
That is so horrible ! Could you imagine if someone bought one of these and then realized it was a fake and then tried to return it and then they wouldn't because they thought they were trying to pull a scam !!!
 
This is exactly why COACH should be worried about all the websites carrying fake COACH and not about the people buying and reselling key fobs, I MEAN SERIOUSLY.

The counterfeit COACH is out of control.
