You're welcome. Besides what Hyacinth said about white bags, I would add that they might look a lot worse in person. Not all flaws show in a photo.
I can attest to that! I bought an ivory bag which looked pristine in the pics but pretty dingy in purseon. Since summer is almost over, I'll try to give her some love for next year.
 
Title: Coach Chocolate Brown Leather Legacy West Backpack 9827 w Tag Made in USA
Item number: 400562759916
Seller: johnny-sells aka johnnyconlisk on Bonz.
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Choco...916?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item5d4366a8ec

Comments: May I have an opinion on this backpack? Was the style made in 1995? The lining doesn't seem right and the creed looks wonky.

(The seller was previously discussed here): http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-250.html#post25133595 and http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-250.html#post25133836

No, 9827 is a Legacy West Backpack and that line didn't even come out until 2001. Silver hardware wouldn't have been available in 1995, the inside zipper is a mess, and the shape of the front buckle and leather buckle tab is wrong and is bigger than the genuine one, and there are no grommets around the buckle holes on the fake.

So far the seller has had a recent fake that should have been spotted by any experienced Coach seller just from the poor quality of things like the Carriage emblem and the creed (posts 3744, 3746 and 3747 in this thread go into more detail), and an older bag that is too old for the serial number and has other obvious differences between it and the others listed on Ebay. I would be very hesitant about buying from either JohnnyConlisk on Bonz OR from johnny-sells on Ebay

Looks fine to me too.

Thanks, Hyacinth. I just wanted to verify before reporting.
 
Hi everyone,

Can someone please authenticate this for me? It is advertised as 'Authentic Coach Purse' on eBay and I wanted to check if such claim is true. I am a Coach rookie and have only owned one, which The Hubb bought for me as a present.

Any input would be much appreciated. Thank you.
