Here's another one I would appreciate comments on - there are photos this time

eBay Express: NWT Coach Legacy Black Leather Satchel Handbag 11130 - Description

(incidentally, the creed in my black Legacy satchel is virtually identical to this, except for the serial number, just to give you an idea...)
Thank you!
not yet much of an expert with coach but as I've been obssessing about it for ages... I'd say I'm happy with this one. did you buy it?

ITA with ZG... it's stock photo so I suggest to ask for additional photos of say the creed/ serial number, lining, etc of the ACTUAL item...

I've been victimized by stock photo before, the seller said it's guranteed authentic so I bought 2 Juicy Couture bags.. when it got to me... man were they fake! Lucky the seller accepts returns but the hassle and anticipation sucked.

Hi all, this is my first post but I found this great little Coach bag at the thrift store and from what I've read here, I think it is from the late 70's. Does anyone have any more info about this bag and any tips on how to take care of it? I'm not a big handbag carrier but I love everything about this bag and want to extend its life as much as possible. The serial number listed is 056-6844. Thanks for any help and info you can offer!

I found this coach bag at a thrift store, so who knows if it's authentic. I'm going to attempt to attach a couple of photos. The number is: 0748 234. It says it's cowhide. Pictures to follow.

I just got a Parchment color bag on ebay and I hope it is genuine.
Can anyone let me know if this number exsists????

S6S-4160

It is like bucket bag with a shoulder strap on one side from top to bottom.

Fingers crossed. It had the DD.... but cha never know.

could someone tell me what a bag with this serial should look like...

M04K-9956

from what I can tell it should be an all leather bag from 2004... but any additional info, or even better a pic, would be great.

Thanks

My aunt was given a coach bag from her friend who was getting rid of it. She gave it to me, but i am trying to figure out if it is real or fake. It is a green suede purse with a little pink leather trim. The tag states: THIS IS A COACH BAG. IT WAS HANDCRAFTED IN CHINA FROM THE FINEST MATERIALS TRIMMED WITH GENUINE LEATHER ITS SUPERIOR CREFTSMANSHIP AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL REFLECT OUT COMMITMENT TO ENDURING QUALITY. NO: B3K-7022. Could you post a picture of what this bag should look like. Thanks

^^^ Here's the bag for that style number:

It could have come in other colors. It's not suede though.

I just got a purse off eBay (I know ) and I'm trying to figure out if it is infact real... It's number 41258, an optic swing pack in raspberry. I know that the C's are supposed to line up normally, but I thought I read that on the smaller purses that wasn't always the case...

Edit: It does have the YKK zipper, and the creedo tag looks good, although there's a small, very shallow stamp on the upper right of the creedo tag (outlet store, right?), and it even smells like Coach... Hopefully you all understand the smell thing, lol, I'd hate to sound stupid.
