I'd appreciate if you'd post (or at least PM) the buyer's ID so I can block. There's a discussion on the ebay forum a buyer/seller who does a similar thing with expensive shoes.
swhij3025 I think she was on a one-time buying spree. She lives in Taiwan and was buying while in the US. I wasn't mad; I thought it was funny. At least she wrote me a really nice letter, unlike some other offers, so I was fine with selling to her. If I wasn't okay with the price, I wouldn't have done it.

Hmm.. has anyone had someone ask for a ridiculous lowball price or gift of a particular bag because her daughter is going away to college and she (the mother) has terminal cancer and not expected to live another year, wants to be able to give her daughter this special gift to remember her by?
I don't remember the ID cuz it was a while ago, feedback history showed numerous purchases!
Also had similar in the past from other people.

I would PM the ID to you if it was just this what happened, but after getting yet another message from her I think I will post it and if there is another thread somewhere with "sellers beware of..." I can post there as well.

My reply to her was, no sorry actually I checked again other ones listed right now and mine is priced on the low range. So she replied that in her opinion mine was priced accurately, and no problem because she already bought another one for $100 plus, that included a wallet, not trying to be rude...(exactly her words). OK... sellers beware

Item: COACH Authentic Vintage Leather Navy Messenger Blue Cross Body Purse
Listing number: 301562502910
Seller: marcellajean2007
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/301562502910?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Comments: The picture of the creed is so bad that I am unable to read almost anything off of it; however, the serial number is somewhat readable so hopefully that will help to authenticate this item.
The bag is authentic. It's a Rambler's Legacy.
Item: 2 VINTAGE COACH PURSES
Listing number: 261815331481
Seller: tamsbooker

Comments: The seller had no pictures of the creeds in the listing, so I messaged the seller and they sent me the attached pictures. Honestly, I could care less about the bag on the left, but I am very interested in the brown backpack on the right.
There are creed pictures in the listing. BTW, when a seller sends you pictures in a listing, you have to enlarge them in order to share. I can't see anything in those tiny pictures you attached. Both bags are authentic. The brown backpack was called a daypack and was made in 2001. It is the smaller size. I think the seller's measurements are optimistic. Coach gives the measurements as 7 3/4 x 9 1/2 x 5.

Thanks so much for your help Whateve! The seller must have added the creed photos after I asked for them just a short while ago. Originally, there weren't any photos of the creeds in the listing. I will be sure to enlarge photos before sharing them in the future, thanks so much for the heads-up on that!
 
If I may add to this topic, I suggest to check the buyer's buying history. I recently got an offer from a buyer that "was disable and on a fixed income", I checked before replying and saw she had spent over $700 in Coach purses and wallets in the last 2 weeks, and has no selling history. If this person buys to resell is not on Ebay or with that ID, so if it is for personal use, wow! nice fixed income she must have.

I do not mind people trying to save a buck, but the lies to get their way I do hate.

And for those who didn't see her buying history, I sure hope this isn't my tax dollars at work!!

Could have sworn i had asked first, but can't see that i did--

So, is this ok, please?
naughty, naughty! I was watching that and wondered who got it. It's authentic. Please tell me how you like it. I've been considering trying this style.
