By law, photos or graphics published by Coach remain their copyrighted property and may not be used without their permission. Keeping copies for your own files is not considered a problem, but copying and USING them, such as posting them in your own selling pages or sites, auction listings, etc is technically a violation of Coach's copyright and we strongly discourage it. Reproducing the actual images to sell or profit from the images in any form is definitely a violation of US Federal copyright and trademark laws.
The same copyright protection covers Coach's images from any of their media that anyone finds on Google or other public and Search sites. Images including videos or music on the internet are still copyright-protected and belong to the original creator and/or publisher (unless the rights have been officially sold or passed to another party or entity of course), no matter how many times they have been reproduced without the original owner's permission, as many who have posted someone else's copyrighted music or video clips on their own site or channel have often learned the hard way.
At least that's how I understand the basics. In my next life, it would be great to come back as an attorney specializing in copyright and trademark law.
