Thank you so much.

Wow, the seller is holding the hangtag hostage if you accept her (lower, I assume) offer! I've never seen that before.

I just saw that -

Take the lower price and tell her to keep the bleedin' hangtag. If you find another vintage bag in black just swap hangtags back and forth. No one, including us, is going to care if the hangtag wasn't made the same year as the bag, as long as it's authentic.

It would not surprise me if that happens more frequently than we know. I admit, I could probably talk my self into buying a strip of leather, if it had a hang tag. No explanation . . .

Great, lol, now all I can hear in my head is the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld saying, “No hang tag for you, get out!”
I agree. A black vintage hang tag is not hard to find. And House gave me the idea to “accessorize” with hang tags from other bags, in other colors.

It looks authentic. It could be a variation of premiere case for palm organizer #4566 from around 2000. However, I had two of these and the logo was simpler. So yours could be a later version and might have had a different style number/name. With that logo, I would think it would be closer to 2003.

Nah she lost the sale altogether. Excellent way to do business, lorac2015. ETA she offered me a price and I reoffered my lower price which was $5 lower, and she declined. Then I reoffered at her lowest offer and she declined it, so she had a change of heart and got lucky that I tried to stand at my lowest offer.

Thank you. Now I know what the velcro is for (inside left pocket below ID slot). I forgot about the palm pilot -- that and the beeper seem soooo long ago.
 
Hello can someone look at this post by lorac2015 on poshmark? I see there's discussion about her on here a few months back. It's a NYC Riding Bag that we are working on an agreed price for.

Although lorac2015 is a "posh ambassador" (whatever that means!), she writes guides and had a fake in the past.

I did see that which made me go ahead and get authentication. I considered purchasing without authenticating considering her large amount of nice looking Coach bags she has listed, it just made me more trusting of her with the ambassador status (also don't know what that means other than maybe power seller?) So, she has had a fake and is also wishy-washy.

Thank You Hyacinth, much appreciated. Can you advise in determining current value is preferred method doing a search for comps under name. Upon doing so what pops up with most frequency is canvas leather version and am trying to determine is that is indeed a comp for the leather one?

LMAO! The soup Nazi! :lol: From now on whenever there's no hangtag that's all I will hearing in my head! Lol!
