What do the numbers in a purse mean?
If you are speaking of the little slip in the purse with "made by 123", then this is the identification number of the worker who actually made it. Many companies employ this practice to get feedback on certain items and the quality control. Other companies have started this practice to help foster employee involvement on an assembly line process. Happy workers mean better products.
Otherwise, random numbers have no official meaning.

What material is Relic handbags made of?
"Why do you want to know that? Everyone else is writing really wierd questions and you're asking- Oh never mind..."
Let me answer that with an answer rather than a comment.
1. STITCHING
Stitching can be a dead giveaway. Inconsistent stitching and sloppy construction in less visible areas, such as the underside of the bag or inside pockets, are details to look for immediately. Authentic designer bags tack on an extra zero on that price tag due to extra, carefully-crafted construction. They cost more because they are built more complexly. Counterfeit products usually do not have the care of construction that the real item has. If the construction looks simplistic, it's likely to be a phony.
2. MATERIALS
Many fakes are no longer made of PVC but of reasonably good leather, even lambskin; however, they are seldom as good as the materials labels like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Coach would use. Fake purses tend to be stiff and often have some sort of discoloration. When dealing with replica leather handbags, make sure the leather does not have an uneven look that is consistent. Also, people generally assume designer bags should be lined, which is why many replicas are lined. But, on the contrary, real purses are not.
3. THE LABEL
Look for any kind of misspelling - at all - on labels and tags. In any quality product, the label is stitched in, but in Gucci counterfeits (for example), a cheap hand tag will hang from the handle. Look at authentic purses online, and study the real tags. That way, it will be easier to spot the fake labels. Fake labels are generally cheaply made, unclear in impression, and has a lesser quality of stitching (and the attachment of the label). Two examples: for one, sometimes cheaply replicated Coach bags will include tags with misspelled and run-on words; secondly, Burberry bags will often be stamped "Burberrys" instead of "Burberry - London" in gold or silver on one side.
4. PACKAGING
Luxury retailers put a great deal of care into packaging their products. This includes the works: tissues, wrapping paper, shopping bags, these extra touches are usually part of a real transaction. Look for items that have their original packaging. It's important that the box or bag the item comes in is neither too big nor too small, and is of the same brand as the purse you are purchasing. Makers of luxury goods seldom cram things into boxes or flimsy dust bags. Most luxury dust bags are made of thicker, soft cotton and flannel. Smaller items, like wristlets or wallets, will usually come in boxes.
5. DETAILS
Everybody knows that details can make or break a dress; well, the same goes for purses. The intricity of threads, leathers, fabrics, metals and stamping make a luxury bag what it is and should be...expensive. Most luxury items don't just come with authenticity cards; they also come with a product booklet with details on the details. Key things to look for when it comes to details: make sure the handles are of equal length, the logo is straight and firmly fastened, the details of the bag match up, and that the zippers are in full working order.
What should a girl carry in her handbag?
a girl should always have these things, in case of emergency.
Sanitary items:
you should always keep a few pads or tampons in your bag in case you period sneaks up on you. it is a good idea to have a few, even when it is not that time of the month because sometimes your friends need them in emergency too.
Hygiene items:
it is a good idea to keep sanitary wipes or a small bottle of dettol in your bag for when things get dirty. it is also good to keep a few band aids or spray band aid in your bag so your cuts and scratches don't get infected.
Make up:
most girls wear make up, and if you do it is always a good idea to keep some simple lipgloss, mascara and concealer in you bag. if you wear a lot of makeup you might also want to keep foundation, eyeshadow, eye liner, lip liner and any other products you use. sometimes you need to do quick touch ups between classes
Beauty:
most girls have a compact hairbrush in their bags as well as hairspray, bobby pins and hair ties. some times you may wish to also keep a ribbon or head band too.
other:
deodorant is a must have- because there is nothing worse than walking around smelling atrocious, and not being able to do anything about it. I suggest a small spray on or roll on, but spray on can be better as you cant share a roll on. most people also have safety pins and nail files /clipper too. it is a great idea to keep a really small fold up umbrella too in case it stars raining. also keep a small bottle of sunscreen so your beautiful skin doesn't get burnt.
Mints:
mints or a breath freshener is a must have for most girls, and they are usually in very small packets which is another plus.
Wallet:
in you wallet as well as any cards that you keep, it is a good idea to keep some note paper, a mini address book and a mini calender. sometimes if you have braces or a mouth appliance it is a good idea to have tooth picks so you don't have to pick food out with you fingers. always keep a small amount of money for emergencies only and an unused bus/tram/train ticket hand- its ten times cheaper than a taxi!
How do you spot a fake designer handbag?
With so many fake handbags being sold on the internet today, it's easy for a person to be duped by unscrupulous sellers. For the designer bag novice, a fake designer handbag will usually have 5 design and or manufacturing flaws:
1) If the leather is fake, it will not smell or feel like real leather.
2) The stitching of the bag will not be well sewn. The stitching will be lopsided or uneven.
3) The hardware will tarnish easily. The clasps, ring handles and fasteners will be of poor quality and light weight to the touch.
4) The coloring of the fabric will be either too light or too dark.
5) The zipper will be plastic instead of metal.

Does handbagbliss.com sell authentic designer handbags?
No, don't buy from this site. The bags are NOT authentic at all, they're all replica, although the leather is real leather. I saw the YSL totes on many other sites that retail for only 110$. And forget about the authenticity card, the Chinese replica industry can print millions of those cards in a jiffy :))

Yes, they do. I have been buying there for years and have always been very happy!!

Your best bet is likely eBay. Just search for "coach catalog" and scan the results for the title you want.
