I found a Coach Outlet tote at a Marshall's store. I love the color. I've been doing a lot of research to see if it could be fake, but it seems authentic. From what I've read, T.J. Maxx and Marshalls vet their bags and don't sell counterfeits. I do understand that their outlet items are of lower quality. This tote was made in Indonesia.
I was looking at bags at a thrift shop and the lady showed me an “authentic “ vintage coach bag, it had cell phone pockets and was cheaply lined inside. I told her she had it priced too high as it is fake. The next time I went in the store is was on the rack for $5 😂
Love it! As a vintage collector I am always thrilled to see videos where I can learn more, and I had no idea about the misspellings, usually I don't get that far before spotting the fake but there are some good fakes out there and I really appreciate the information!!
Thank you. I am a Coach lover and now exploring vintage coach bags and wanted yo own them. They are so well made. Your video is helpful.
Super helpful tips! I’m doing a bit of decluttering and am realizing that I might unfortunately have a few fakes that I’ve picked up over the years. I took some photos today and was going to post in the fb groups you mentioned but sadly they aren’t accepting new members.
Since this video I have my own FB group. Vintage Coach Eyecandy. Feel free to post there!
@@birdybloom2 ok thanks so much!
Thank you! I love having these things explained and examples shown!
Thank you so much for this video!!! So so helpful as I’m on the lookout for my next bag 💜💜
Thank you for all the tips. As I'm just a beginner.
If you are looking for the vintage bags, good luck so is everybody else and their mother. The newer bags do not always have the leather creed patch some just have a cloth tag on the inside of the lining. The variances are too numerous to mention with the newer bags just do your research .... Good Luck !!
Interesting
Thank you for this ♥️ I recently got the Quinn crossbody & know it’s a remake of the basic bag & now I want to find a few vintage Coach bags. The city bag, the basic bag & the court bag. So thank you for this so much!!! ♥️
All bags that should be easy to find!! Best wishes🥰

Hi! Thank you for the invaluable information. I am your new subscriber and will be watching often. Thank you for sharing 😊🌷
Thank you so much for the kind words:)
Good tips! TFS!
Thank you for information
Thank you
I found a fake "made in Korea" at a thrift shop listed for a lot of money. i told them it was fake and at their listed price, a concern to their shop's reputation. I don't know what they decided to do with that information. I hope they did the right thing...
I have my eye on a pretty blue Janice but the outside stitching is white. Were those bags ever made with contrast stitching? Thanks for the great content!
It’s possible. Can you share a pic of the bag and creed? Birdybloom_rehab@yahoo.com
I wish my parents had spoken to me in this voice whenever I unknowingly did something wrong. Instead, they jerked me up and busted my rear. Still never knowing what I did. 💁♀️
Great at explaining how to spot a fake Coach. What about the zippers from all era’s of Coach?
There are any different types of zippers used. Most commonly talon and YKK but a YKK zipper doesn’t make a bag real. Maybe I can go over a variety of zippers!
@@birdybloom2 that would be a really informative video! Thank you.
I just purchased a Coach Outlet Minetta bag and the creed doesn't include the manufacturer location and it doesn't have a white tag sewn in, but it's still legit. The patch is real leather and stitched the proper method where it's vertical on the left and right side. Also, some bags don't always have the YKK on the zipper and that doesn't always mean it's fake, either. My style number matches exactly with what is shown on the coach outlet site, all hardware is embossed, stitching is perfect, zipper is smooth and any other indicators are accurate. There are sometimes exceptions to the rule, which make it a little more confusing to figure out.
These tips are for bad ‘Vintage’ Coach Fakes if you didn’t catch that ;) YKK zippers were used on authentic and counterfeits, as were other zippers. That is correct;)
oh no, my bad..sorry I missed that! I'm learning a lot by watching these vids! @@birdybloom2
Do a video on how to catch a good fake. Mine are from the 70’s and i know my bags, leathers and quality
Do you mean a video where the bag looks good initially but is fake? That is harder to teach as it takes a long time to learn this. I do have a video that I will be sharing soon comparing a ‘decent’ fake with an authentic bag. I love a good 70’s bag! Wish you could share pics here!! 😍

I just picked up a vintage Penelope crossbody. I'm trying to learn when it was made and if it's authentic.
The Penelope isn’t really a Vintage style but if you would like, you can either join one of the FB groups (Coach Counterfeits does authentication) and if you are not in Facebook feel free to email me at birdybloom_rehab@yahoo.com
Great tips. You voice is so low, even with my volume at max, its like a whisper. I couldn't even hear you at times.
Thanks for mentioning that! I’ll try to be more aware….I’m usually filming at night when my boys are asleep🤣
I have a British tan wallet check book length with striped lining, has no stamp believe its vintage. Has a coach metal label on zipper pull. Was wondering if its real or just really old.
This sounds like a potential Sonoma wallet. Wallets do not have creed stamps. It likely has a made in stamp somewhere on it. You can get it authenticated (for free) either in Vintage Coach Eyecandy on FB or Coach Counterfeits. Good luck!
would you know if vintage coach on their website, is pre-used?
Yes it is all pre-used and rehabbed mostly by a specific rehabber Debbie the restorer (though not all). I have yet to see a NWT Vintage Coach bag sold but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened and definitely doesn’t mean that it won’t happen because if we can get them, they can too! One would hope that it would be advertised as such.
Hi, I want to buy a vintage court bag, but in the creed says it was handcrafted in China, is E05Q-9870, is it fake? What do you think? Thanks
I can’t say without seeing the bag and creed but that all reads just fine. It’s not Vintage though as it was made in 2005 based on the creed.
@@birdybloom2 yes thank you very much, have a nice week 😊
Coach doesn’t use Velcro.
That’s true, I do not know of a Vintage Coach bag with Velcro. But I have seen aftermarket applications of it.
Is a suede No. G05S-5168 Fake?
Not necessarily
If it is made in Vietnam..is it Real??
Vietnam is a very common factory location but not for Vintage more so for more ‘recent’ bags. I can’t say that it is real with just info but it doesn’t make your bag fake;)
Was coach ever made in Mexico , has a small bull eye next to creed
Coach was made in Mexico and had a lovely leather!
Wonderful to hear! Does a little small bullsye circle next to the coach creed mean anything?
If I could send a picture through this forum I would! I haven’t bought it yet but would like to
@@alc6284 yes, it means that it was a bag sent to the outlets for sale;) It does not lesson the quality or appeal for the majority of people.
@@alc6284 email me at BirdyBloom_rehab@yahoo.com and I would be happy to look at it;)
If you are on FB, join my new group, Vintage Coach EyeCandy.
You can also ask for authentication help in Coach Counterfeits on FB and in the PurseForum online. Best wishes!!
You need to do something with your volume! You are difficult to hear and I have the volume turned up!
Ok thank you for the feedback!!!! I’m so sorry! 😬
