• Full clear and legible creed text and serial number

Thanks you! I love how you always volunteer bits of additional information.

Yup, she's an encyclopedia of knowledge!

You also didn't include the seller's ID: Kate - ladymiyao

I'd never trust Poshmark to authenticate items, especially a style as highly faked and well faked as Rogues and other 1941 collection bags, Disney items, NASA items and even vintage and classic styles. (I"ve gone into depth about my feelings toward PM and generally, I don't even comment on listings from that site so I'll stop here.)

But I'll try to help you.

First, the pictures shown in the listing aren't adequate for authentication purposes.

If you have the bag in your possession, please take pictures of the following:

• both sides of the made in tag from inside the bag,
• picture of a white label with 2 rows of letter/numbers. The white tag is hidden somewhere in the bag, maybe in a side seam or possibly deep inside a pocket that you may have to turn inside out to find and photograph.
• photo of the price tag showing the style, UPC and color info. (It's not legible in the listing.)

If more pictures are needed, they'll be requested.

Well.. Poshmark deemed my souvenir sky rogue authentic... tho I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean much - hopefully I get it soon so I can show you pics and you can help me - appreicate it, BeenBurned!

I'm happy to do it, especially since there's so much bad information out there about things like dates and names. Whether someone's going to keep a Coach item or sell it, a little bit of its history is always nice to know.

Indeed! I wish they could talk and tell us their individual life story though.

Please also post a link to the listing from which you purchased. I'd like to verify that it's from the real Coach Outlet site.

I am so sorry they stuck it to you.

If you paid with a credit card, file a dispute. POSHMARK IS WRONG!! And this is why I don't recommend Poshmark and will not authenticate items listed there even if the seller is an honest one! There are just too many dishonest sellers and an inept site and inept "experts" don't help.

Please feel free to send this post to TPTB at Poshmark.

Ok, we can't see the item you bought because that's a link to your transaction but you did buy from the official and legitimate Coach (outlet) site so you can be sure you got the real deal.

Thank you for the picture of the creed.

Side (OT) note: Apparently, in reinforcing their inconsistency, Coach is bringing back older style numbers. (A 4-digit number such as this bag has would have been used about 15 years ago!) m

And as @whateve posted, they're also reusing style numbers so there are 2 different keychain/charms with the same number! Ugh! it's a love-hate relationship I feel with Coach!

Especially the original Stewardess bags from United!

 

[KittKatt]

Genuine, made in 1995. The white marks look like light scratching or rubbing. They're less obvious in the closeup.

Thank you very much, Hyacinth!

Indeed! "Layover in Rome today. Owner carelessly chucked lipstick into me. Got it all over my precious suede. Patiently waited while owner fluttered her lashes on this guy Giacomo in that dimly-lit bar. Almost got Chianti spilled all over me, but owner was still alert enough to prevent it. Currently hanging out in Giacomo's dark hallway. Super looking forward to Athens tomorrow! "

And "2721" is another one. Check out the reversible Bucket Hat in the center, I think these are from around 2002 to 2005:

Brilliant!

 

[MaraudingMagpie]

Brilliant!

I most definitely don't speak from experience here.
