Hey authenticators,

Could someone authenticate these two bags (same model)?

Item: Coach 10479
Seller: snshne08, eBay
Listing no: 173831132832
link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-SOHO...:toIAAOSw19NchZCZ:sc:USPSPriority!80305!US!-1

Item: Coach F10479
seller: gidgetlovesfashion, eBay
listing no: 183740927930
link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-F104...927930?hash=item2ac7d00fba:g:7TQAAOSwXoJckrAZ

comments on both:
(1) what's the difference between the MFF and FP version? They look the same to me. Was this a case of making too many FP and they restamped for MFF?
(2) Does anyone else own this bag/is it hard to care for with the pebble leather and suede?

Thanks again for your time!
 
Item: Coach Kiss Lock Bag Clutch
Listing number: 303099761036
Seller: shannonchristine222
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/303099761036

Comments: I have always had a weakness for kisslock bags and for fancy, delicate, impractical, little evening bags, even though my lifestyle doesn't lend itself to using them very often! I believe that this bag is an Amanda Satin Darcy Clutch in coral with gold hardware 13598 B4 CO (2009, MSRP = $258).

The bag is in terrible shape both inside and out - it's disgustingly dirty - who would do that to a pretty little bag?! But I have had good luck in the past rehabbing coach sateen fabrics so I've decided to give it a try. It was listed on ebay at auction with a starting bid of $10 but I made an offer of $8 and it was accepted. I figure that the chain strap and hangtag are worth at least $8 even if I fail at rehabbing the bag.

There is no clear picture of the creed in this listing but I didn't see any obvious red flags. I would appreciate your thoughts about the bag, please let me know if something doesn't look right to you. I don't want to buy a fake even if it only costs $8!

I realize the photos are poor for this auction but I just made an offer on this cute little set and it was accepted. I haven't paid yet. May I please request an authentication on these items? At this point I'm just looking for red flags, I can request more photos as needed. I think the wallet is at least worth the $$ I will pay for these items, if it's authentic.

Comments: I think this is a Casino bag in red and I have my fingers crossed that it's the real deal. I took a chance on it.

THANK YOU!!!

There aren't any problems that I can see other than the condition, and it matches the other ones on Ebay. Good luck with the rehab!

They both seem ok but it's impossible to be sure about the bag without a creed and serial photo. When you get it you can take a photo and post it here. It's a small bag so taking serial number photos require a bit of patience.

Thank you Hyacinth! I completed the purchase and will post creed pics when I receive the bag. I very much appreciate the quick response!

I can only answer the authenticity question, both bags are genuine.

Please wait for answers to your other questions.
 
Rehabbing 2 bags for a friend's charity auction. Can you help authenticate?

Bag 1 (right) Legacy flap Companion Bag 9076

22" drop
7 1/2" l x 3 1/4"d x 7" h

Bag 2 Legacy Zip 9966

11" l x 4 1/4 " d 11 1/2h

sorry app phone glitch

Please let me know if any additional photos are needed. love the flap details on the larger bagView attachment 4382164View attachment 4382165View attachment 4382166

Sorry, both are fake.

Thanks that's what I thought
I beg you to please advise your friend against auctioning/selling those 2 bags. Not only is it illegal to sell fakes (yes, even if it's a charity and even if you admit they're fake), but selling them keeps them in circulation and eventually, someone will own those bags and not know that they're fake, illegal and will be ripped off.
