How can you tell if a coach purse is fake?

Answer 1

1. IF the are C's on the outside of the purse, there is NEVER C's on the inside at the same time..the inside would usually be like a solid color.. that's a BIG giveaway!

2. check to see if the leather on the straps are thick and seem durable, if they are flimsy and thin its fake

3. if there is any matal on the purse, like on the straps,check to see if they don't feel hollow or plastic, they should feel heavy.. and like metal.

4. the seams on the bag, ..sometimes on the front middle.the C's should still match up even over the seam.. it shouldn't be like a whole nother C.. do u get what im trying to say? lol its hard to explain number 4.

I HOPE THAT HELPED!!! :)

hi im 13 and i am sorta a coach and loui expert

now im saying it my way i have one or two ONLY fake coaches

one way is look on the inside there should be a big label if it has a seral number at the bottom of it then its one way to tell if it is REAL if not if it just has a 5 digit code it is FAKE this is a MAJOR WAY to tell if it is REAL or FAKE.

2. look at the c's on the outside not the thick part touches but the skinny part should not if it does touch it is FAKE if it does not then it is REAL

3. on th inside it should not have c's if it does then it is FAKE

4. Another BIG WAY is if you have a strap that can unbuckel on one side and unbuckle is should NOT say coach on it! If it DOES then it is FAKE if it does NOT then it MAYBE REAL!

5. one more of my BIG RULES are the Straps now take you nails and squezze it together some where on the leather if it gets a air bubble inbetween then it is FAKE well its a posibility IT MAYBE REAL DEPENDING THOUGH!

I just wanna say that also The FIRST RULE is the bullet if it does not have a HUGE seral code then its obviously FAKE so before you buy it make sure it has that first! Also i reccomend not to buy it on the internet theres a 9/10 chance its FAKE! also one more thing im in KC MO buy it from the coach factory of warehouse! IF YOUR IN Kansas CITY MISOURI NOT KANSAS! ITS IN THE PLAZA,

I HOPED I HELPED EVEN MORE! >.*

as a rule, if its too good to be true than it usually is. if your buying the purse from a guy on the street for $100 and the purse and the purse is normally $400 than you got burnt. however there are so many fakes out there just be happy with what your $100 bought you
