I think it's okay though I'd like to see the open bag and kisslock pocket to be sure.

Oh my goodness, I don't know what is going on with me tonight. I posted photos a million times and then tried to edit them and now there no longer here at all. Trying again...

Please let me know if you need any more. Thank you for your time and help!

I think it's okay if but I advise extreme caution when buying from sellers in the Philippines. There are extremely close fakes coming out of there.

Other opinions are welcome.

Thank you very much for the information and advice.

Would you know the name of the bag? The seller claimed that she bought it in US, used it a few times, and now selling it. She forgot the name of the bag.

Thanks.
 
Please authenticate when convenient--thank you!
Item: Vintage Coach Black Classic Leather Crossbody Purse Handbag Turn Key
Listing number: 382890986865
Seller: adorableur
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Co...986865?hash=item592614cd71:g:LusAAOSwrqhcq2e-

It's fake. J9H- wasn't a valid serial prefix, and the strap definitely was NOT made by Coach.

I didn't see the listing that was removed but I did look at adorableur's other listings and I advise caution! High feedback or not, it's obvious she's not authenticating her items prior to listing.

She sold this fake:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Small-Vintage-Coach-Black-Classic-Leather-Crossbody-Purse-Handbag-Turn-Key-/362592539288?hash=item546c331298:g:kcgAAOSwT-Fck7-W&nma=true&si=R1KZE2gbI7%2FqXEL4yI4b6utHkH8%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
and this one:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Leather-Coach-Crossbody-Bag-Purse-Hunter-Green-/362568356052?hash=item546ac210d4:g:c6kAAOSwwmBcdvDT&nma=true&si=R1KZE2gbI7%2FqXEL4yI4b6utHkH8%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557


ETA: For the record, my records show that the seller had fakes reported in both 2015 and 2017. This isn't her first rodeo. You'd think she'd have learned.
I'll also post this on the HOS thread but the fake Willis that Hyacinth commented on yesterday has been relisted.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Co...057122?hash=item5926346462:g:5VoAAOSwBc5crM65

Don't buy from adorableur.
