Is this "Coach" purse authentic?

[chippewa2867]

Hello! 

Hope everyone is doing well 🙂

We're moving and I've been in the process of selling things we've never used. One of them was a "Coach" purse gifted to my wife by her aunt. Given the story, had no reason to believe it was fake. Also did some googling before posting. First attempt to sell was unsuccessfully, second attempt it was removed for being unauthentic.

I hear the people here are the experts so I'm hoping for an opinion on the matter. 

Thanks ahead of time, i really appreciate it.

Appreciate the quick response!

Do i now just sort of wait for consensus or is this answer something I can put into stone? Lol

When alberta says it, consider it carved in stone. But Ill back her up if it would make you more comfortable.

Great! Works for me 🙂

Now I just need to reach back out to eBay and see if they'll let me relist. 

Really appreciate everyone's help!

Have a great week!

A fair amount of googling and I'm not actually sure how to appeal - is anyone by chance able to help point me in the right direction?

Sorry to be a bother - Anyone by chance know a direct channel to help get this resolved for me?  Following through the 'contact us' workflows always end up at a dead-end for this topic. If not, I'll start with general help and see where it goes 🙂

Did the email you received when they removed the item have info about how to appeal? Supposedly, you can obtain a professional authentication (~$7.50) and submit that to ebay as proof of authenticity. I've used Authenticate4U for several different brands including Coach. 

Contact them through their Facebook page as that's the quickest and best way to get a timely response. You send payment through paypal.
