The second one seems okay.

I'm not comfortable with the first seller, her feedback nor the source of her "Michael Kors" bags. (For the MK, she's made several purchases from the same seller. Some of his listings show the item location as Australia, others show Malaysia and still others show Taiwan.)

If she's getting her MK bags from a questionable seller, has a negative feedback for a Michael Kors bag and is selling a scarily closely faked Coach, personally, I'd avoid the seller.
 
Item: Stewardess Bag
Bag purchased from a resale store.
I looked it over and thought things looked OK, but then noticed the bottom, where the fittings are exposed.

You didn't show pictures of the brass feet so it's hard to tell whether they've been replaced, or whether there was a piece of leather that made up the inside lining of the base and was removed for some reason. I think the second is much more likely.

The creed indicates that it's genuine, made in 1995. Wait for Whateve to take a look.
