It's not an all-inclusive list but it should be helpful to you. In fact, you might want to bookmark all the salearea guides. The authors, Hyacinth and Salearea can be trusted to give accurate information in the guides.
From that guide, this paragraph is about 1/2 way down the page:
P1L- prefixes have been showing up on mostly Patricia's Legacy bags style # 9951. Enough have been found to add this to the "always fake" section since "P" would never have been a valid Coach month code. Patricia's Legacy bags style 9951 are faked very often and should always be authenticated.

I'm hoping I can find a way to validate this serial number. If anyone has a resource please let me know. Thank you!
Normally we like to see pictures when an authentication is requested since nothing can be confirmed as authentic without seeing the details of the bag.
However there are occasions when items can be confirmed as fake and your bag is one of them. If an item has an invalid serial number (and this is a fairly common known fake number), the bag it's on is fake.
Sorry.

Instead of criticizing you, she should be thanking you for your helpful advice.
In contacting her, you were trying to save her an account ding because if ebay removes the listing, she risks her ability to sell.
I wonder if the seller will be convinced if the listing is removed.

Thanks for your response, much appreciated. I showed this information to the seller and her response was "this information does not come directly from COACH but from some internet blogger and you can't believe everything you read on the internet". How do I respond to that? Does this information come from a source at COACH?
I wonder if the seller would like to come here and prove her case since she doubts "some internet blogger."
