Just an Edit. I must apologise for this rushed authentication. She put me very much on the spot and started talking about her cancer. I was trying to take photos and load up while watching my teenage helper so was getting a little stressed hence the very bad photos. She has now gone and I have bought the bag but I have her number if there is any issues.
If you would like me to load up better photos and try and get the link working I can do this tonight.
Again Im very sorry.


Sorry about the above...she came to my work and we were busy. I did ask her to send photos 2 days ago so it was a bit of a rush. Will try and get the facebook marketplace link to work.
There should be a white tag inside one of the zippered pockets. Feel around and turn the pocket inside out to find and photograph it.
 
Title:COACH Legacy Vintage Large Duffel / Bucket Handbag / #17998
Seller:Reinna2001
ITEM NUM:173963502973

Your link doesn't work:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Lega...502973?hash=item288108657d:g:xckAAOSwasZdKWDL

It looks okay. (Apparently they didn't number these limited edition bags as they've done on other LE items.)

On an editorial note, I don't like that reinna2001 used another seller's collage picture as her first image. There's no reason why she couldn't make her own collage showing her own actual item. It's infringement to use the pictures belonging to someone else.

JMHO.

First thank you for the authentication. Wow I will look through the pictures again. What do mean by number?

Genuine, Hamptons Leather Satchel from 2005. I'm not sure if the color was that bright in real life, Coach's website photo of that and other styles from the same line look a bit more subdued.
Genuine but the actual color is probably lighter and closer to the third and fourth photos.

@Hyacinth, thank you so much for both of these quick authentications and the additional info on the color! I really appreciate it, thank you again! (Fixed my formatting mistake)
 
At goodwill, hoping for a quick Yes/No on this one...I’ve been looking for a lighter colored bag for forever.

Thank you so much!

Some limited edition items have stamping on the creeds showing that the item is 1 of (however many) were made.

This is an example of the numbered type of creed:

I don't think these reissues were very limited in the number that were produced. Don't expect the leather to feel the same as the vintage version. I believe these were lighter weight and the strap was longer.
 
Item Name (if you know it): no
Link (if available): 1 and 2

Hi, hope you guys are having a nice weekend!
Could you help me with these two Coach pouches? These are all the photos the seller provided, unfortunately no clear shots of the zippers or any interior tags. But the logo stamped on the front seems off to me, too smudgy, maybe? But I really don't know Coach all that well. Could you tell me if there are any red flags? Also I've been trying to find the name of this exact style, but nothing came up. Thank you in advance!

Please refer to post 1, page 1 for the info we need. Since you refer to "the seller," I assume there's a link to the listing.

I will say that for any item, if a seller is unwilling or unable to provide pictures or information a reasonable buyer requests, IMO, that's a seller to avoid.

Edited the post. I asked for more pictures, but hasn't got a reply yet.
