On the pre-loved market I've noticed that some Coach Court bags have an adjustable strap, and others do not. Is there a reason for this?

Thank you

The bag in this listing is authentic. Coach has changed minor details on some styles over the years. I'm not sure when they started offering an adjustable strap on the Court bag. An ad I have for 2000 shows an adjustable strap but it might have been available before that. In earlier years, Coach stores had the option to get a bag with the strap it came with or replace it with one that was shorter or longer. I imagine that since they had this option, they didn't feel the need to make straps adjustable.

There's no way to authenticate it especially without a creed stamp or Coach stamp or mark of any kind. . There's nothing to even prove it's a Coach, the only thing with the Coach name is the hangtag and those can be faked or replaced.

ETA - Maybe a Carnival Bag 9925 from 1997? I need to find a listing to compare details.

EATA - If it's a Carnival Bag there should be a creed and serial number stamped inside the open front pocket. We need a photo of it.

MORE OPINIONS ARE WELCOME.

I agree. I had a carnival bag in this color (aqua). I don't see any issues with the pictures but it can't be authenticated without the creed picture. When you get it, post the creed picture here.

So I have no choice. It's going to affect my feedback rating, correct?

Not your feedback, but your seller rating. If you can reach someone before it is too late, you can get the defect removed. One defect doesn't cause problems, but multiple defects might. I'm not sure how long you have before they can't fix it, or maybe they just told me they couldn't fix one of mine because it was too late because they didn't want to bother.

I don't know who to reach out to or how. Never had this happen to me before.

Someone reported my Kimball zip as a counterfeit and eBay removed it. Can you please verify?

Exactly what did the takedown message say (with ID/personal info redacted)?
