Do genuine Coach bags smell like perfume? I bought 3 Coach Dakotah rivets bags on eBay.

There is no tag inside the bag with a serial number, just a clear tag that says MADE IN VIET NAM* VIETNAM.

It also does not have the serial number under the creed which I understand is not always used. According to your article it seems authentic, however, the logo on the front is a silver oval similar to the turnlock style. I received a gift from a family member last year. I think it may be real because I've been using it continuously for 15 years the damn thing won't die! Anyone opting for a metal tag do not waste your money with eBay etc. It may not be the original vintage tag my bag was issued with but at least I know it is authentic. I went with gold to complement my bag's brass hardware. They supply them in 3 tones: light gold, silver, and gunmetal. They got back to me in less than 24 hours and immediately generated an order for a free tag. I emailed Coach my bag's creed number, hardware color & mailing address. I saw a rather ratty looking navy leather tag for sale online for over $20 (no thx!) So I opted for the freebie option. I have a navy Janice's Legacy bag that lost its original tag and I recently decided to look for a replacement. The metal hangtag thing isn't foolproof, because the Coach company supplies replacement metallic tags for free.

I'm still wondering if it is a fake though. Hello! I am looking at purchasing a coach bag from poshmark and the serial number from the inside matches with a Hamptons signature medium madeline tote bag from 2008, via coach customer service. So if in doubt, pick up the phone and call, it's worth a try! Also, this number can be verified by any Coach store (some will, some won't). If your search results come back with similar pictures or descriptions of Coach purses, then you know the bag is real. You can take this number and type it into your search bar, either on eBay or the Internet, with the word "Coach" in front of it, and search it. For example, a large white leather Coach Ergo bag has 12235 as its last five digits (see picture). The last five numerals are the style of the purse.

On a Coach creed, you should see a letter, then four numerals, then a dash, and then more numbers: five numbers for newer bags, three or four for older vintage bags (pre-1990). If the sales tag for a small bag is not included in the auction or sale because the bag is pre-owned, then please take this into consideration before bidding or buying. The serial number will be listed on the sales tag. Some of the smaller bags (such as top-handle bags or clutches) don't have the patch, but they will still have a serial number, and they can be verified.

Large to medium-sized to large size Coach bags will always have a Coach leather patch with a serial number inside the bag.
