Hello again! I came across these two bags from our local online selling shop. Wondering if they are genuine and if they are good buys at $14 & $16 (converted amount). Hope somebody can help me authenticate. :smile:

Item 1: Coach Style No. 9997
Link: https://www.olx.ph/item/coach-sling-bag-ID7YhmX.html?h=a1de065cbe

Item 2: Coach Sling
Link: https://www.olx.ph/item/coach-sling-bag-ID7Yhsm.html?h=a1de065cbe

Thank you in advance!

Both bags look genuine. But the seller should post more photos showing the condition, especially the insides.
 
All serial numbers in genuine bags made in 1994 through the present will have at least ONE LETTER OF THE ALPHABET IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE SERIAL NUMBER. The month code is always a letter ("official" letters for the month codes were A thru M except of the letter "i", but rarely an "i" or an "n" was mistakenly used by plants whose employees hadn't "read the memo").

The letter for the month code was usually the first digit but sometimes the digits in the first part of the serial would get scrambled up, but 1994 and newer numbers will ALWAYS include at least one letter in the serial prefix.
Thanks for confirming. (The seller, slidin has a history. This is the 4th time I've found fakes since October, 2016.)
 
If I already know that the bag is a Coach and I'm looking for the (1) name of the bag and the (2) advertised description of the bag that Coach used when selling the item, as well as the (3) date and price, is this the forum that can provide me with the information? I can post pictures of the bag as well as the Coach price sticker associated with the bag. The serial number reads M0969-14806. The abbreviated description on Coach price tag reads FLGP PR LTH CLUTCH SV/Silver. It's a very unusual tri-fold clutch with 2 lipstick holders / French coin purse / card slot holders for 2 cards / plastic mirror / multiple zippered pockets / 3 ways to wear it--clutch, shoulder,wristlet. The lining is patterned with multiple sized colorful circles and squares. I cannot find any images of this clutch on Google. Tried your authentication Coach link and substituted the numbers with 14806 and got nothing back. Can anyone help???

Thank you kindly.

If you personally bought the item at a Coach store or directly from Coach's website, you can post identification questions at the ID This Coach thread in the main Coach forum, but we still prefer pictures of the item and the price tag with the codes.

If it wasn't bought by you directly from Coach, ask about it here at THIS thread and include the information and pictures requested in Post number One of this thread. It has to be authenticated before it can be identified. If we know the name we'll include it in our authentication.
