[Breeful1978]

Very nice tutorial. Thank you!

[polokingh2o]

wow this is a great reference..

[GiantTalkingPencil]

Mine was fake. XD But it's okay, I mean, I don't have enough money to buy a real one. this is as close as I'm going to get. :( At least, till after college.

[lamaisonpurse]

We love this video - you give a lot of helpful and practical information about navigating the crazy world of replica and fake handbags. Keep up the great work and we look forward to reading more on your blog!

[judem81]

Thanks for the video! It helped me spot a fake before buying it!

[vidycz]

why do people have to be so greedy for money that they lie >_<

[truluvmex]

greattt videeo! really helped

[ccadivadancer]

i got my first real coach bag 2 days ago and im just 13!! i LOVE it! and i got the mini wallet too! :)

[ximaginativity]

I prefer the fake ones. The real ones are sometimes to me kinda ugly. The fake ones to me are pretty cute, I can hardly tell the difference between the two.

[REDDANDMESHABOO]

this was very informative! thanks!

[huggableunicorn]

mine is sooo fake

[beatbandit02]

amazing.

thanks so much for this!!

[JazzyBoo18]

cute

[officialbriangibson]

Whoever carrys a fake Coach is too stupid to live.... Coach is a poor mans bag and anyone can get one. They're white trash bags.

[tairakali]

i buy fake coach bags all the time and noone can never tell lol the fake purses u showin look nothing like mine... the fake guy at my flee market is real good...lol

[MissErykahP]

i agree the designers put so much work into there own designers to make them officalllly theres then theres all these fakes that are trying to rip them off! not cool bottom line: if your going to buy designer buy DESIGNER real designer becuase anybody who owns more than4- 6 designer products can tell a fake from a mile away.

[swaggqueenashley95]

Who cares.....Its not your money that is paying for the coach bag Authentic or Fake. So therefore mind your business.

[DogsRule765]

Well the outlet has amazing prices!!!

I got one for 119 and it's retail price was like 278! I ended saving 158 dollars or something like that! I like it a lot, it's a blue hobo with the cc pattern.

[DrKirstie]

I look at it this way. I'm not a purse girl but if I'm going to have a purse it has to be a GOOD purse. I cannot afford a thousand dollars on one of those high fashion purses so I settled for COACH finding it to be reasonable. I spent 400 dollars. It is the ONE and ONLY purse I have and will ever have until I start making the big bucks and I love it.

[tjoles2008]

I love Coach and it's sometimes hard to make sure that you're getting the real thing. I go to the Coach website and it tells on there who sells real Coach bags, it lists the Coach stores and other department stores that carry them.

[barrelchicx3]

this helped me alot thankss & everyone if u want to get a real coach purse just go online or to a store!!

[Pengiun4President]

instead of buying fakes, you can just go to the coach factory or an outlet store! it's all real and you don't have to worry about it being fake!

[prettyblueyez79]

someone posted that they are reasonably priced $500 and lower...wooow. Where do you work? I make really good money and I have priorities that don't include buying a purse that is about a month or so of groceries.I would have to take an insurance policy out on a purse that is like $400 or $500 just in case it was stolen.We all have our things i guess.

[calenderhappy12]

I have an idea......................just buy a bag at a real COACH STORE for goodness sakes!!!!!!!!! DON"T BUY DESIGNER GOODS ANYWHERE BESIDES THE DESIGNER'S STORE. Then you'll make sure it's real without having to listen to all these 'tips".

[lyssalunatic]

i went to the bahamas and got a coach wallet for thirty bucks. coach isn't popular there, so it's not worth that much, but it is over here in the statess! ;D

[cococandy1000]

Some People are like "Who Cares if its a Fake" I agree, but at the same time disagree. The Reason are because. Some Fakes are Made very Poorly & Look really sloppy, but then again some fakes look really good & can barely tell the defference. All I'm saying is that.. If you are going to buy a Fake get one that's not sloppy & Not 2 noticable. [: Also, The fakes are a really good buy 2, but sometimes people sell them saying there real & it turns out 2 be a fake. That's was I hate.. So watch out! [:

[cococandy1000]

tjk7703 is Right. There's Authentic coach Purse's with the Coach Tags Beings Metal. Next time you go to the coach store you should check it out [: I Have 3 Authentic Coach Handbags that I bought from a coach store && Tags Were Metal. Some are Leather, but they can also be metal [:

[nathansgirl1908]

The best way to avoid getting a fake is to buy from the boutique or an official Coach outlet.

[GGDslover]

lol i went to a social event today and spotted around 5 fakes at once lol one had both c's and g's lol

[jellytubber45]

it doesn't even matter anyway....unless your like a stuck up bitch.

[LoVeStoned2424]

I don't understand why people make fake Coach bags? I mean most of the bags are reasonably priced $500 and under.

[lenamz2]

thankx for such good tips.

[jeymatogoh]

I echoe MsCutie2010 worse when u pay actual amount for a fake one. better the one who got it at $15. The bureau of standards should be working on taking fakes off the market for the sake of the manufacturers and designers

[heywhatsup47]

who the heck cares? Its just a dumb bag. they overprice just because they have the "coach" name. Sometimes, the fake ones are cuter than the real ones.

[lilfrancisca]

Ima be totally honest here i dont really care if itd real or fake im not gonna spend 200 dollars on a stinkin purse thats why i buy fakes and idgaf cause at the end of the day its my swagg not others

[econchick]

im sorry but WHO CARES.

i love fake purses b/c their freaking less money and no one is going to come up to your purse and start examining the stitching or quality.

its just plain stupid to waste your money like that. id rather spend my money on FOOD and such.

just my opinion...

[tjk7703]

There are authentic coach tags that are metal. I have a black CC signature purse and wristlet purchased at the Coach store in King Of Prussia, PA that both have matching metal coach tags. They are very heavy, that's a good way to tell as well. Cheap metal tags will be light-weight.

[cococandy1000]

Yeah, I have some that are Metal Too. Not all Coach Handbags Have Leather Tags. Some are also Metal. [:

[jennyolson123]

la la la go to mexico and get fake EVERYTHING that looks good too I get comments on my 15 dollar gucci wallet all the time and my 5 dollar luis vitton sunglasses- I know they re fakes but no one else can tell cause they make em good there I guess

[jennyolson123]

i got an authentic coach purse- and super cute to boot- at a rummage sale this weekend for ONE DOLLAR!!! yeah for me - when i bought it I figured it was just a knock off - but it is a real coach purse seen it on ebay today bidding is already over 100 dollars and the buy it now price is over 200 - i dont know if the chick broke up with an ex and wanted to get rid of it or what- but I LOVE IT

[dhyde77]

This was a great video. I bought a real one first and got fooled on my second one. I guess that's what happens when you buy from someone's trunk! LOL

[Adrianlupita67]

lol ok soo alll of these looked exactly the same to me!!! except for the tag yea the metal ones look totally cheap, but like the stiching ha who notices that!!!

[jojapeach1922]

If it has poor stitching, it is quite likely that there will be other tell-tale signs of the bag being a Goach, like the C/CC's not being lined up. However, I've seen some complete crooked stitching being carried in malls, and I hate Goach bags!

I figured one major point of this video is to learn the signs of Goach bags so you won't be tricked into thinking you're buying an authentic Coach.

[yrexloverisdead]

You are awesome - thank you for posting this..god bless :)

[xXlavendermaskXx]

y do people care if its fake? wen u really think about it, if ur in the mall, who cares what bag ur carrying? sure, they know it's a coach bag but will they come up and ask 2 inspect your bag? tch, no! that's just weird! as long as it can hold my stuff, i'm using it, but mine is in every way possible like a authenic coach but it had a metal tag, anyone know about that?

[MsCutie2010]

I know what you mean.... Who cares if it is fake? If you really think about it most of these designer bags are not even manufactured in the U.S. we are paying for packaging, retail, and advertisement when the companies that sell them pay hardly anything for them. We think we are smart for carrying around a purse we bought at the actual coach store but we are the ones getting ripped off!! I only get upset if it is fake when a person pays full price for a fake not knowing :(

[GGDslover]

Actually coach bags are made in the U.S.A upping the cost insuring better design, if you carry a fake it makes people mad because they paid for the real thing and you paid less for a replica that shouldn't be there because it makes coach look trashy like the faux bags produced

[cloverchang]

Actually, sorry to burst your bubble but I can almost always tell if a Coach bag is fake. And I'm sorry, but I judge if someone is wearing a fake bag. What's the point of wearing a fake name brand? If you can't afford it-- buy an unmarked bag! There are so many cute, non-name brand purses on the market.

[Chauvinisticzero]

Another way to make sure you got an authentic coach bag is to BUY IT FROM A COACH STORE

[jojapeach1922]

Or the Coach Factory Stores in the outlet malls. I never bought anything out of the Coach Store at Lenox in Atlanta, but I dig the Outlet store for a quality AUTHENTIC(!) bag at a discount price.

[PolyvoreHelp11]

Anyone know how long the zippers last on Coach items?

[itunesluvr21]

also, on the little tags on the outside, the writing of Coach is going to be relatively boxy. as in, the C should be slightly more elongated than it is tall or round.

[VSpinklovers12]

My coach mostly exemplifies that it's a clutch with no straps and perfect leather and buckles, but should the bottoms of the c's be toutching?

[VSpinklovers12]

Um, I got a wallet (clutch I guess) with no creed, and a nice buckle and nice stitching but the top half is great leather but the bottom i'm not so sure. should the c's that are horizontal be toutching at the bottom half? And mine came in a box with a little coach card in gold letters what's that?

[DivinePurses]

funny!

[webkinzxoxo97]

i call it a Foach. lol i have two. their gifts. look real though on the fake ones with Cs they look like 0s if you noticed it. Vera Bradleys are Fera Fadleys. lol

[SimonMcCfan]

Yeah! &the Coach's that have 'G's instead of 'C's are called Goaches!! Haha XD I saw a fake Chanel the other day, the two c's were o's. It's so much of a giveaway it's fake!! Lol.

[DivinePurses]

Sometimes fake coach bags also have a tag that say 'this a coach bag.'

[chihuahuadamier]

are you serious ? where can i see the tag?

[polly9696]

ATTENTION!

It is extemely easy to tell if a coach purse is real! Just look on the inside, there should be a tag that says, "this is a coach bag..."and it says some other crap too. Great video!

[modelchic99]

I love high quality handbags. Its simple, to avoid cheap purses just buy them at department stores only. That's where I get my purses from. I really don't buy brand name purses at all because they cost too much. I get a purse just as good at a reputable dept. store.

[Hidaya2006]

i paid $35 for my "coach" bag today. i do NOT care if it's fake. i am not trying to impress my neighbors... lol

i dare not pay $100-$200 for a purse. HA!

[OhdudeWTF]

I totally agree...i'd rather spend my money on clothes then spend it on a designer purse. What good is a designer purse gonna be to me if I don't even have any money to carry in it because i spent it all on damn designer purse. lol

[emkerdie]

how could you tell if the wristlets are fake or real?

[krishapop]

probably the same way just see if it has sloppy work on it.

[lkeller84]

Thanksfor the tips! i just bought my first coach purse and love it!

[HeavenlyMakeUp]

thank you for this video, i recently purchased my first coach bag from, the quality is truely worth the price, and that's why we pay the big bucks right? the quality!

[DivinePurses]

What style of bag did you buy? They have some really great styles out right now.

[HeavenlyMakeUp]

i can't find the name of it, i got it from a coach outlet store last year, so it must be an older style.

[Aqualeader5]

I like brand name stuff being brand name means it's good quality and will last and are reliable thats why they are brand name unlock other cheap stuff that gets broken on a couple of uses

[MonicaWWE]

If I send you pictures of my Coach puruse, can you tell me if it's real or not?

[rockdude94]

Wow so many people are retarded!

coach is quality! why make a fake lol

this video was very good. Good job!

and it does not matter if coach is expensive

like what Skopperslut said

u get what yu pay for :]

[rubbersoulgirl84]

Thanks for posting this video. My coworker got me a Coach bag for my birthday and I wanted to see if it was a fake. This video help me determine if the bag was a fake or not and it was a fake! The CC's inside and out, the metal tag, and the off centered stitching made it a fake. Thanks again.

[Skoppersslut]

having a coach bag does not make u a snob. just cause u have a coach purse? thats retarded. i like coach bags because of the colors and patterns n their lasting quality not because it is a designer label. and i rather pay more for a nice bag then pay a little for junk. im sorry that i dont like cheap junky bags that dont last for more then a week or so. i am not snobby, because i have one. i dont care if its designer or not. and coach is not ugly coach is quality. u get wut u pay for.

[dougansgirl11]

hI. i JUST BOUGHT A COACH BAG TONIGHT AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL AND IT MATCHES UP TO BEING GENUINE IN EVERY WAY EXCEPT THE LINING DOESN'T HAVE C'S. DO THEY ALL HAVE C'S THAT?

[DivinePurses]

Can you send me the style of the bag you bought?

[tictac21212]

i only knew about the Cs. thats how people mostly tell

[integraloro]

Nice, informative video that should go a long way in helping people prevent getting ripped off with a fake bag.

[healthyskincare]

Great info on making sure you buy the real thing. I've had 2 Coach purses myself over the years and have to say the quality is excellent. If you take care of them they last forever.

[jmcweb]

I need all the help I can get so this is good stuff for a mere male!

[mileycfan12345]

i have a real coach bag, but i dont see need with having tons of brand name purses...its ridiculous! a 1500 dollar bag? wtf? get a life ppl! although i would NOT want a fake coach, but if its fake and looks ok and good quality, well um thats th buyers choice. but all thes labels r so expenxive, i dont think ppl should waste their money on just bags! THINK OF ALL THE STARVING PPL IN THE WORLD! STOP OBSESSING OVER UR DESIGNER LABELS!

[quickie817]

you guys are a bunch of snobby pricks who think wasting tons of money on a brand name defines who you are and makes you better than others. A purse is a purse. Get over it

[aligracesmommy]

Just a few things to clear up. I recently got a Coach bag for Christmas and realized it was fake. I called Coach to ask them questions about it because I saw your video and 2 things you said are not true. #1 Coach DOES use Brass and Copper tags on some bags...they are not all leather. #2 Some and I stress some Coach bags do have the print on the inside of the bag as well as the outside. You can call the yourself if you would like to. Thanks for the video very informative.

[miatago140]

This is true... I've been carrying my coach bag for a year now but I found it at a garage sale. I always thought it was real until I saw this video. I still think it might be real from your comment.

[mastervisions]

I'm glad that somebody is informing us about the fakes out there. Don't want to get ripped off.

[DivinePurses]

Thanks for your comment Krissypoo19. This video was made to help people not get ripped off by those scammers who are attempting to sell fakes for real prices. No biggie if Coach purses are not your thing.

[Krissypoo19]

Well all i have to say is coach purses are ugly as hell and people only buy them because they are named brand and to show off so people think hey they gotta coach purse they must have money anybody who pays that much for a purse is stupid as hell and they are ugly and who gives a flying fuck if your handbag is real I mean come on people get a freakin'life! There are people in this world who don't have a anything to eat and you are worried about if your bag is fake are not.

[grace6767]

wow thanks 4 the info u help me conform that mine IS REAL WOOOHOO

[LittleUms]

I hate knockoffs too! Excellent Video, shall check the bag thoroughly next time i purchase one!

[singlelast]

great video..............

every guy should have a look on this

[Goergeford54]

Hey, great video for us guys buying presents coming up to christmas

[nkthen]

Superb video! Thanks for sharing this! I'm going to show it to my wife!

[newlevelopportunity]

Wow, all us guys should watch this one so we don't mess up buying our girls their Coach Purses.

Trust me, from experience, you don't want to buy a "bad" knockoff.
