How To Spot Fake Coach Bags
By admin | April 22, 2008
If you want to buy Coach bags online, then you might want to make sure that you buy the real bag and not a cheap replica. Not that Coach bags are very expensive, as they are rather inexpensive compared to other designer bags like Prada or Guggi or Louis Vuitton. Nevertheless, they are not the cheapest bags out there, so they are prone to fakes and you can be scammed.
I can’t tell you there’s a 100% certain method for spotting fake Coach bags in online stores, but the least you can do, is to buy from their original website and not from eBay or Amazon or other sources, especially those were people can put their personal items to auction. In that case, the shop has no responsibility, it’s the owner who posts the auctioned item and it’s his pitch you’ll read on the auction’s page.
The most obvious fakes are the ones which do not reproduce exactly the original bag: for example, instead of the “CC” logo, you’ll see a CG or a GG. This is the easiest case when you can detect a fake Coach bag.
If a bag does not look like the ones you know, then you can compare it with the photos which are published on the Coach website, as they have there all their collections, with a lot of photos for every handbag. If you cannot find a match, you should question its authenticity.
Under no circumstances will a Coach bag have the CC pattern on both the outside and the lining. It may happen that the pattern is not present at all, but Coach never uses it on both the interior and the exterior of a handbag.
If the fake is not so well done, you’ll spot it immediately, because the bag will look sloppy, with irregular stitches, plus the leather will be visibly of poor quality
