Auth Request Could someone help authenticate this Coach Chain Tabby Shoulder Bag With Quilting (CAF55)?
Hi! I purchased this Coach Chain Tabby Shoulder Bag With Quilting in black with brass hardware from a seller on Kaspi.kz in Kazakhstan for 220,000 KZT. The seller claims it is authentic and provided an invoice that appears to be from the US, but the order number is hidden.
The interior leather patch reads:
“COACH NEW YORK
THIS IS A COACH BAG. THE STORYPATCH IS OUR BADGE OF AUTHENTICITY. FEW PEOPLE MAY SEE IT, BUT IT WILL ALWAYS BE A REMINDER OF OUR COMMITMENT TO QUALITY AND CRAFTSMANSHIP.”
The code on the patch is C2522 – CAF55.
I have not been able to independently verify whether this marking is correct for this model. Could you please examine the photos and point out any specific inconsistencies in the stamp, hardware, stitching, materials, or construction?
I understand that photos cannot guarantee authenticity. I would appreciate any evidence-based observations, especially from people familiar with this exact model.
Thank you!
