boysRsmelly posted this pic of her purse.... they look quite different, I'm starting to get worried, since I thought Coach made sure all of their purses looked the same...

I know exactly what you mean about the whole "smells like Coach" thing! But I could never get into the optic line so I guess I'm not much help...

is this real or fake?

also, unrelated to the above purse,but are the stripe coach purses ever reversable? one of my friends got one and I swear it looks fake.

Edit: It does have the YKK zipper, and the creedo tag looks good, although there's a small, very shallow stamp on the upper right of the creedo tag (outlet store, right?), and it even smells like Coach... Hopefully you all understand the smell thing, lol, I'd hate to sound stupid.

Optics don't match up at the seams, this is probably the only Coach signature pattern that doesn't. It's very hard to tell when optics are fakes or not sometimes. The one you have pictured looks fine to me though. Is the inside hot pink with a hot pink creed patch? That's what mine has.

Luddy · July 24th, 2008, 02:56 PM

Yes it is, and the Creed patch has black sides.

I'm hopeful again! Here are some more pics, just to double check, if no one would mind! Thanks again!

The first one is the Tribeca Bucket bag and I'm not sure about the second one. Can you post pics?

Mom_me · July 25th, 2008, 11:37 PM

hi everyone! i bought this coach bag (please find attached photo) from eBay. It`s a soho mini top handle F41514. This bag doesn`t have a coach logo and serial no. inside. Is this authentic?

juicyholicmum · July 26th, 2008, 12:19 AM

this one's authentic hon, the smaller bags doesn't have the coach creed and serial number, this is a factory item. :)
