Could someone please authenticate (and name if possible) this bag:
Item: Classic?? Satchel 9880??
Listing number: ebay item number 173821809038
Seller: bnwsell
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-CO...ndbag-Made-in-USA-FREE-SHIPPING-/173821809038
Comments: Looks to be a Classic satchel, measurements approx 11x7x5.
Does anyone know the handle drop on these?
Thanks, all!

Yes, Classic Satchel, style 9880 from around Fall 1989. The handle drop is probably about 4 inches, although the seller says it's 3 inches in the listing. I've never owned one so I'm only guessing.

Thank you, Hyacinth! Here's a stupid question - would you be able to point out what a "Pinned" or "Stickied" thread would look like? I'll often search for information regarding the style that I think I may have to see if there are any red flags I should be aware of, but not sure if I've seen anything pinned. I really appreciate your patience and helpfulness.

Go right to the index page for almost ant forum

and there's a section right at the top that's separated from the rest of the threads by a narrow red line, at least when you're using a computer, I don't know what it looks like with the various apps.. There's also a faint bar across the top where is says "STICKY THREADS" and the threads themselves have a small red icon showing a pushpin.
