Re: HELP-Can someone help authenticate Coach bag????
Here are a few more pictures. See if these helps. It was purchased used. I know there are a lot of "new" fake ones on ebay in this style. My sister-in-law purchased one that she later found to be a fake. We have compared them and hers definitely had a lot of the telltale signs of a fake. For starters it had the signature lining on a signature bag. But, a little more info about this bag: the zipper does have the YKK stamp, on both the outer zipper and also the internal zipper. These both seem to match my authentic Coach satchel. The weight of the purse is very substantial. I know a lot of the fakes are very flimsy. The hardware all appears to be very sturdy and the patent leather is all intact, no cracks. The stitching all appears to be uniform. The interior lining seems to match my authentic Coach that I have, in both color and weight. I guess the biggest concerns are the suede creed and also the piping and the hangtag. On the drilldown, it doesn't appear that this style had the piping on the sides, but the bigger tote did. Also, it appears that the hangtag was metal. All the ones on ebay though have the piping on the sides and the leather hangtag. I just don't know!
