Hello! Can you please take a look at this one for me? She says there’s nothing else to the creed, only what is included in the photo. Thanks!

Thanks, BeenBurned. She said there’s no number below the statement. I asked her to upload another pic including the space below so I can take a closer look. You don’t know of a style like this without a number, right?
There should be a serial number. Even if (as she claims) there's no serial number, she still would need to show the FULL TEXT of the creed so we can see it. A cut off incomplete creed is useless.

If oliviarose can't be bothered to take another picture so her bag can be authenticated, she's probably not a seller you want to do business with. (Refer her here if necessary!)



I'd strongly recommend against buying that bag, with or without a creed photo. I'm seeing at least 2 problems.

The center seam on the bottom panel of the bag is noticeably off-center. I've never seen or at least never noticed that on a genuine Coach.

There's also a problem with the creed that I've only seen on fakes. @BeenBurned, take a look at the word "states" and tell me what you think.

and here's what the bottom seam looks like
 
Dearest Knowledgeable Ones,

Please can you review the following for me:

I have in-hand a large wristlet in Ginger Beet
Purchased from: Vinted (UK)
Seller ID: noshjustin06
It has old paper tags attached with design F47527 followed by the code SVA2K.
Measures:
Width - 21-23 cms
Length - 14 cms
Strap incl lobster claw - 36 cms

COMMENTS: I could only find one reference to it on TPF, way back from 2012, TPF member @lolaisodd, but not requesting authenticity.
My main question is whether it is genuine or not, then the year please.

Thank you

Soon I’ll also be posting my most exciting find this month...a green Nubuc Sonoma 4935 for you to help me with...

Thanks again

It also looks like the bottom corners aren't square enough.

Can we see the label sewn inside, the one that says "made in"?

Hi Y'all, could you kindly take a look to authenticate these bags? I'm finding some of these bags with blue/white striped lining without interior creed and some with. Any info would be appreciated! Do do know the years coach made these? Not much info on the web with info about them. Thanks so much!!
These are hard to authenticate but I think these are fine. They were made for a long time. At least from the early 80s through the 90s, possibly the early 2000s.
