Hi , thank you, i will ask more pictures, I am slightly confused tho, in the 1st link hse does have several pictures, creed, sides, top , bottom, locks , creed, you could please advice me what more to request? Thank yoi
The 1941 collection bags have weird creeds - not real serial numbers nor date/plant/style info. What I need from those bags is more fully outlines in post #1 on the first page of the thread:

"Since mid-2014, Coach stopped putting serial numbers on creeds so in newer bags where the creeds don't have serial numbers, we also need to see pictures of the labels/tags from inside the bag. They are either both in the main open part sewn into the seam of the lining, or one might be buried deep inside the zipper pocket. One shows where made and the other has a serial number."

To compound the confusion of navigating such a huge site when you're a newbie, trying to figure out what pictures and information are needed depending on when the items were made and which collection they're from can leave a newbie feeling overwhelmed!

Yes, there is a lot more to it , and lots to learn . I did get the extra pictures :)
I just want to make sure they are real before making an offer since these are not cheap, thank you



Thank you again
