Hi again :) Hoping someone could take a look at these for me? I've really been on a vintage Coach kick these past few weeks. Thank you, as always!

Item: Collegiate bag, I believe
Listing number: n/a
Seller: SenseAppealUnlimited
Link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/604471879/coach-crossbody-bag-coach-black?ref=hp_rf&pro=1

Item: also a Collegiate bag
Listing number: 223399138979
Seller: duamar271934
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-CO...rentrq:2d5dfb441690ab67099b6688ffe70bd5|iid:1
Comments: Measurements seem a bit off but posted in the identify forum about it and someone said it was probably just mismeasuring and that it looks like a Collegiate. Can't actually tell if this is british tan or not. Maybe putty or tabac?

Both are genuine Collegiate Bags from the later 1980s. I'm not going to speculate on colors, there are too many variations just in the photos.
 
Please authenticate this.

NWT COACH 1941 ROGUE 25 TEA ROSE APPLIQUÉ LEATHER SATCHEL
Item: NWT COACH 1941 ROGUE 25 TEA ROSE APPLIQUÉ LEATHER style 87065
Listing number: 392212856700
Seller: mercedesb60
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-COACH-...m43663.l10137&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true

Comments: My only concern one of the tea roses black on the front has a few creases. The bag I bought was in Vero Beach Florida. But I did get a great deal on it, so if it’s real I am not worried about the one flower. I did pay alot for it, but was discounted a little.

Please help me authenticate thanks. I am new to this forum.

It looks good.
 
Good afternoon, Authenticators. I have two Duffle Sacs in brown that I'm considering on ebay. I have no specific concerns but since I've bought two fakes (and got my money and shipping back thanks to you all) I wanted to check first.

The first one is fine. The second one is fake.

ETA: note to other authenticators - do you see a 'ES' stamp on the creed? I wonder if someone returned this fake and then Coach sold it to an employee.

Greetings, kind authenticators! Could I please have your opinion and any info on this bag? It was an eBay purchase. The hangtag is obviously a replacement. The color of the bag is a camel or caramel color, I don’t have another one like it. Measurements are: 10” tall (to top of buckles), 8” wide, 3”deep.

It's fine. It's probably saddle bag small 9205.
 
The first one is fine. The second one is fake.

ETA: note to other authenticators - do you see a 'ES' stamp on the creed? I wonder if someone returned this fake and then Coach sold it to an employee.

I had to enlarge the photo to ridiculous proportions to see that stamp. I am impressed again. Thank you once more.

I see it too.

I saw a fake a couple of weeks ago with a bullet stamp. It's another example of how dangerous to trust Coach employees to authenticate!

ETA: Here's the post with the outlet stamp on another fake:

If you're buying from or communicating with seller #1, SenseAppealUnlimited, you might let her know that this listing isn't an authentic bag:
