Item: Coach City bag

Seller: coachclassics
Comment: I have been looking for one and this NWT caught my eye but so did the grooves under the prongs. What say you wise ones?

I'd love to see that tag, a tiny portion of which is shown in some pictures. Even if it's a tag for the same style, I doubt it's a 1997 tag.

Other opinions are welcome but I see big differences in the creed as compared to another from the same time and plant. I don't think the bag is authentic.

I don't trust the red City Bag either. The 9097 "Big Willis" (or whatever the actual name) that I bought a few months ago has exactly the same font and codes as the -9097 creed on the right of the set that BeenBurned posted and I'm 100 percent positive that the one I bought is genuine. Below is the creed photo.

There seem to be a lot of questionable bags with A7B- prefixes

Thank you for the confirmation. I already reported it but it's still up. Please report. Maybe if they get enough number of people reporting they will remove the listing.

Looks fine.

Looks fine too.

Note that you don't have to add pictures to your post if the pictures are in the listings you're asking about. It's only if you have to request and receive additional pictures that aren't in the listing when you'd need to add them.

Thanks for all of the help! I'm a little weary of the clutch, as the leather doesn't seem to be as thick or have a scent like my other bags.

Thank you very much ! Sorry if the format was wrong .. I tried to upload the pictures, but it repeatedly kept ignoring my pictures .. sorry ..
Unless you have additional pictures to add that are't in the listing, it's not necessary to repost the pictures from the listing. But we like to see seller ID and item numbers.
