If we're still talking about the green one from post 2169, I'm wondering if Coach made a mistake when stamping it. It looks like a 9085 style number but it's not a Duffle Sac since it has a rectangular base. The creed and serial number seem ok though.

Wait for Whateve's opinion too. I'm still trying to figure out what style it is. That rectangular base is worrying me. I can accept a mistake in stamping, but not being able to find that style with those design details could be a problem.

ETA - Did you get the box that was shown in the listing too?And was there a label on it with a name and style number?

The first one is genuine.

The second listing is by a seller who has one of the worst histories of customer dissatisfaction on Ebay, most for items Not As Described because of extreme rudeness, more problems than disclosed in the listing or nasty or strong odors. We don't recommend dealing with her.

Here's her Toolhaus record of Negs and Neutrals - unfortunately that list is so long that sometimes the full record won't even load completely before Toolhaus times out.

If you enter the seller's name into the Search either here or at the main Coach forum you'll find quite a few posts about this seller

Anyway bottom is oval --another pic

Did you compare that to her listing photos? The pics there clearly show a rectangular base. I wonder if she got the photos mixed up.

EDITED after seeing additional photos:
Or maybe the bag has had the sides squished flat for a while and it naturally lays that way. If that's the case, then it looks like it's a genuine Duffle Sac. It would also explain why I couldn't find any records of a Duffle Sac style with a rectangular or oval base.

Just another reason for sellers to properly stuff a bag when taking photos.
