What collection is this from?

[MK 7]

Hi ladies!
I have a question about a bag im looking at on eBay I was hoping you would be able to give me some sort of year / collection of when it came out? I would appreciate it very much, thanks!

A bag that appears to be exactly like the one you posted, sold on Malleries.

Here is the item number and link below.
Item #: MAL-199-19936
http://luxury.malleries.com/chanel-c-511-s-0.html?page=4

In the description it lists the serial number as:
Numbered authenticity sticker is INTACT. Serial #3268873.

And if you go to the "Chanel authenticity tips". thread:http://forum.purseblog.com/chanel-shopping/chanel-authenticity-tips-308404.html

You will find a chart that list the serial numbers and year(s) that corresponds to production ( the bag you are interested in looks to be approx. 94 to 96...just based on what I know from the bag on Malleries, which to me appears to be the same style bag) )

7-digits--

9XXXXXX series - 2004 to 2005
8XXXXXX series - 2003 to 2004
7XXXXXX series - 2002 to 2003
6XXXXXX series - 2000 to 2002
5XXXXXX series - 1997 to 1999
4XXXXXX series - 1996 to 1997
3XXXXXX series - 1994 to 1996
2XXXXXX series - 1991 to 1994
1XXXXXX series - 1989 to 1991
0XXXXXX series - 1986 to 1988

Awesome thank you very much Purrrfect!! I know I wish the sticker was still in there but since it wasn't I had to resort to some experts
Thanks again!

I think this particular bag was available for more than a few years. I see them available for auction on eBay quite often.

Here is one that is apparently a 2 series bag..

You are welcome - I am by no means an expert...just call me a detective. hahaha.

It was only by chance I saw your thread, after just being on the Malleries site.

Mon has found some others - so the production years are expanding for this style.

Here is another one. Too bad the seller has blocked out some of the numbers on the sticker.
