Just thought I’d check in. Bold print and cap lock alert! Everything okay?

For anyone about post an authentication request, English as you first, second or third language, there are specific instructions for information to include when asking for an authentification.

This is a Coach Forum public service announcement. :biggrin:
Anyone remember Garret Morris doing captioning for the Hard of Hearing on SNL? :lol::lol::lol:

The bag in the listing is authentic. (Serial prefix is D07 not DO7 -- with a zero for 2007.)

She mentions water damage but I can't see it in the pictures. Be aware.

Multiple accounts are allowed as long as they don't interact with each other, i.e., shill bidding, feedback "buying," using a second account if another is suspended, etc.,

Thank you. I poured over the pics. Because I have handled water stained bags and I know my tablets take pictures that don’t always pick up subtle but real surface dirt, I can almost imagine/see the stain possibly from over the fold extending center and to the right. I do expect something noticeable as it was a low starting bid for a new bag. The seller is not a newbie. I also did a quick search of vachetta and surface cleaning on R/R before I took the plunge.
I did find it by luck on the Wayback Machine; Legacy Shoulder Bag, get this, in Citron! I think it gets mistaken for the Ali, which has that distinctive tab closure.
Okay, I need to take a break from browsing listings! Honest! Yes! I do! :lol:
So, the seller ships early Saturday, as in what seems like just after the auction ended (10:30 am her time). Impressively it was delivered today (CO to NJ, slow clap USPS). The water stains are on the front going down the left of center and down the center! They are just not visible in the pics she used. Totally not what I expected. I am surprised (I know, why should I be) that she did not attempt to take a better pic showing them. I’ll post them tomorrow. I think I would have bid on it regardless. The leather is interesting.

That's why I was shouting, in case anyone was hard of hearing. :giggle:
