    Yikes! I had no idea that scammers were making replica Coach bags because Coach isn't that expensive in the world of handbags. Because this bag is no longer available directly from Coach, I purchased it on Japanese ebay thinking that Japan is strict about counterfeits. After comparing my bag to yours in the video, I only saw one difference, and that was the stamping on the underside of the clasp. Mine had numbers, but different from the replica bag you were comparing. Also, the sales tag was for an entirely different bag. I will email these pictures to you. Anyway, I was careful to purchase from a seller that gives free returns so I am returning it. Thank you for alerting us to the world of fake Coach bags!

      It's crazy isn't it!!! There are variations of magnetic snaps even within Coach - I had differences between my pillow tabbies. The tag you had was from a wallet so it could have been innocently mixed up??? Best of luck!

      @IrisLA1 7 місяців тому +1

      Other than the clasp, the bag looked and felt authentic in the quality and craftsmanship. If it was just the clasp, I wouldn't have been so suspicious. But it was the wrong sales tag that made me very suspicious. Yes, it was attached to the bag. Like someone attached a random tag. Someone who didn't know English because it was obvious this couldn't have been the correct tag for the Soft Tabby. @@thehandbaghousewife

It’s so sad this was replicated, I must say when comparing everything the differences were pretty glaring but most people would NOT realize this. The red glaze was a pretty big red flag.

    Very interesting ! 🤗 And in every detail you show, your bag is better ! For example, it looks like the glazeing on the false bag is bleeding...
    About eBay, I totally agree with you that it's better if we can work out the problem with the seller without involving eBay's protection program. But sadly, that's not always the case... And protection for buyers has become more "difficult" in the last couple of years...
    I had a terrible experience with a seller, not a handbag purchase, and won't go into details, that would be a long story... 🙃 But seller telephoned eBay and managed to dictate the result of the eBay case that I had to open after not manageing to work this out with seller. I had to wait for eBay to close the case, which I of course lost, and then appeal the result. THEN eBay actually looked at the photos and other documentation that I had provided. And eBay now sided with me... It certainly took a lot of time and effort to maneuver through that system, and I'm thinking of all those who have less "ability" to do so. I think eBay was more safe for customers back in 2011 when I started ordering from there...
