I have a question on a bag lot I'm considering buying. She originally wanted $150 but after negotiating, she's willing to let it go for $110 for the entire lot and that includes her shipping the items to me. BUT if you look at the Coach logo on the bag, it's partially missing. Can this be fixed? Is it worth buying? On the reversible side, it's fine. Thanks!

There's not enough information in your photos to authenticate. (Please see post #1 of this thread).

Regardless of authenticity, I don't think the broken logo piece can be fixed. Coach might be able to repair it if the bag is authentic.

Since it's on Facebook Marketplace, it won't link properly.

I checked with the Coach Outlet website (where I buy items from time to time) and all items matched with the items from that site. Creed number also matches.

So I guess my question, is it worth purchasing? $110 is a lot of money for me.

You're the only one who can answer that question. If you're not sure, it might be best to keep looking.

Not worth it if you still have to get repair done and there's no saying whether Coach will repair it. It's $35 ( at the boutique, not sure what the rule is at the outlet) to send it off for just to look at it.

It linked okay. I was able to see the listing and the 4 pictures but as @Catbird9 said, those pictures aren't adequate for authentication.

While I don't see red flags, I wouldn't recommend buying without more pictures and a bit of homework (done by you) to determine the price of the repair.
