Hi Ladies,
I got a offer to get this wallet with code: F1482 53769 ( Made in Thailand). I'm not sure if the code and the wallet is the real one or not. Could you take a look and advise me the model of it. Thank you so much :loveeyes:
Where are you getting the "code" you are referring to? Is there a tag?

Who is making this "offer" to you?

Please post pictures of the open unzipped wallet showing all pockets and any labels, tags or markings from inside. If there's a price tag, please post pictures of both sides of that tag.

Without more information and pictures, I don't think your wallet can be authenticated. From what I'm seeing, if 53769 is a legitimate wallet style, it's not the style number of the wallet you are showing.

Additionally, the only places I can find anything at all with that style number are on Asian websites including one facebook account that calls itself "Coach Outlet." (And I do NOT believe it's connected to Coach nor do I think Coach would approve!)

For years, I've warned that Coach wallets are fairly well faked and often difficult to authenticate from pictures shown online. Personally, I'd recommend that if buying online, purchase from a seller with a proven history of selling authentic Coach items and always have items looked at here prior to purchase.

ETA: in the future, please post authenticity questions on this thread:

To add to what BeenBurned already said -

The production codes F1482- which the seller apparently gave you mean that a GENUINE item with this set of codes would have been made in June of 2014 in the Number 82 plant, which is and always has been, in CHINA, not Thailand.

The last record I have of Coach making bags or other leather items in Thailand was around 2003. Below I've posted photos from a wallet being sold by a Japanese seller whose photos show that exact same serial number prefix F1482-. Although the thumb covers part of the black "made in" tag, there's no doubt in my mind that it says "Chine" - China. Not only is it a long-used and well-known plant number, but no other country's name fits.

If the wallet you're looking at has that serial number prefix and a Made In Thailand tag, it's counterfeit.

Where is the "made in"Thailand marking you referred to?

Where is the listing posted? How did you find this wallet?

Who is the seller?

Please post pictures and answer the questions previously asked over the last 2 days.

If you cannot disclose that information for some reason, I don't recommend the wallet or the seller because although I don't use google as the resource for authenticating, it can be useful in showing images of what an item might look like and in this case, the style number of your wallet doesn't come up at all in an image search and that's not a good sign.

I want to purchase this Coach purse online but hear so much about fakes that I am afraid of getting tricked. Can anyone help with this purse? Fake or Authentic?

It's a genuine Poppy Leather Glam Tote from 2012.

Welcome to tPF! For any future authentication requests, please use the Authenticate This Coach thread in the Coach Shopping forum, and follow the instructions in the first post of that thread.
 
I don't have a picture (still looking for one), but does anyone have an idea if there is a Coach model that looks like the Mulberry Alexa satchel? The one I remember was a royal blue Coach bag with a toggle, the material is soft and it has those fringe fobs or somethinh hanging from it.

I think this is the closest style: http://forum.purseblog.com/showpost.php?p=15938183&postcount=45
#15404 Hamptons Leather Flap Carryall from 2010.
 
I'm in tears. Thank you. Lol it was killing me. Is this item rare? I never se it when I google cobalt/blue Coach bags.
You're welcome. I believe it is rare, only made for a short time. There is one in black on ebay. It is a gorgeous bag.

ETA: At the list price, it was probably somewhat limited. Most Coach bags made around that time were much less expensive.
 
could anyone give me some more info about this cutie?

Hi all I have two older coach bags I picked up from the local consignment store..View attachment 3342760View attachment 3342761View attachment 3342762 and I'm wondering the names of The styles


And this one ..

View attachment 3342763View attachment 3342764View attachment 3342765

The bottom one looks like a Devon Bag, style 9908 probably from 1992.

We need to know the measurements of the tan bag. Please be sure to always post measurements when asking about older all-leather styles. If it measures 9x7x3 it's probably a Lewiston Bag, style 9931 from the same time period as the other one.
