Item: Coach Small Purse Burgundy Velvet Bow Tan Leather Strap RARE Limited W/Dust Bag
Listing number: 124132269175
Seller: theseareafewofmyfavoritethings
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Small-Purse-Burgundy-Velvet-Bow-Tan-Leather-Strap-RARE-Limited-W-Dust-Bag/124132269175?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Comments: Well, I did it again, I bought a frivolous, impractical bag that I will not have much opportunity to use. It is a Soho Tweed Demi Flap 8F01 from Fall 2005.

I was watching the bag on ebay and the seller sent an offer of $40 and I took it. I already have the matching coin purse - I need help!

The bag is so unusual that I can't imagine it being faked. It looks to be in good condition except that the hangtag is missing but it has the dustbag which is nice (why are the hangtags always missing?!) Please take a look and let me know if you see anything suspicious, thank you.
 
Is this authentic?? It’s listed on

eBay (seller solcialize_8)
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/174238195398

and Mercari (seller solecialize)
https://merc.li/XQDZMtzEb

It's fake.
solecialize_8 also has this fake on ebay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-VINT...:bpcAAOSw0BVefq2T:sc:USPSPriority!02452!US!-1

And on Mercari:
https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m80462088655/

ETA: I'm impressed! I reported the first one (after it was posted here and Mercari removed it within minutes. Let's see if the 308-9875 fake goes away as quickly!

And the second has poofed! Wow!

It looks like they remove when there's more than one report. (I assume someone else reporting it after I posted!)

I'm not comfortable enough with it to authenticate but I am uncomfortable enough to recommend against buying.

I saw one posted here on the kisslock club thread with the floral bow lining but can't find any others with that lining.

The only 21814 bags I've found are on Asian sites and they have solid lining as does the listing in question. Most of the sites on which I found the bag are those that I've seen close fakes and can't recommend them.
Thank you! I think it's supposed to have glitter edges too but I'm not sure if the bag in the listing does. Also no clear direct photo of the Creed patch but I noticed it's numbered though I can't tell what those numbers are. I can make out the serial number 21814. I googled that and that's how I also found out from the kisslock club about the floral print lining. I also saw those questionable bags come up in image search.

Both are authentic.

First is a Madison Royalton from 1994.
Second is from 2011 and although I'm not sure of the actual style name, I'm seeing it called a Madison satchel.
