Looks like Ebay removed it. Was there a problem with the bag?

I didn’t report this listing so it must’ve looked really bad. Off the top of my head I recall the font of the creed just looked suspiciously flat and wide. The style number was right but I think the plant code was potentially problematic.

I'm going to guess - was the prefix "K3H-"?

I missed the listing too but my curious nature sent me looking for a cache of the listing. (They aren't always available but sometimes I get lucky.)

The link won't always work so here are some of the pictures.

(Nope, not a K3H bag though my records show that the seller had D6J, C3S (with US text), J8P (with US text) and JHM creeds in the past)

Item: mini round canteen crossbody black
Listing number: ?? - https://posh.mk/u8T8Ac0Zy9
Seller: cindyposten69
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-coach-5f44973d3cda88d96dcb9e5c?utm_campaign=referral_code=FCTHRIFT&utm_content=feature=sh_li_ss_ios&campaign=share_content_other_user_post.default.010&post_roll=&rfuid=ext1:df6af468-b587-4348-890d-10614969a96b&ext_trk=branch&br_t=true&_branch_match_id=760581180671780825

Comments: Measures 6” height x 7” width. Mini Hangtag has (O) stamp, no creed patch - maybe considered an accessory? I am not familiar with newer or cloth lined Coach. Kind of an impulse buy, but would still clean it up and wear it if it’s authentic. Many thanks to all admins/authenticators in advance, you are truly appreciated! :heart:

Hi,
Right now I'm having a conversation with a seller regarding a Regina. I asked or a creed picture. He says that the Reginas don't have them. He did identify the bag and gave me a model number though, 9983. Is this correct?

To clarify, it's on Facebook messenger, the bag is unusually cheap and he's Being kind of cagey. Walk away?

If the Facebook page isn't public, if you can't post pictures, if we can't see pictures and if the seller is uncooperative, hit the back button!

Haha! He was selling the "Regina" with a coach wallet that I had no interest in. The guy tried to be all authoritative - " check online, these smaller bags don't have creed patches" I went back to him and said that most definitely the Reginas did. He countered with: "yes, I think the bag is a copy but the wallet is Coach. Still a good deal at $30". It was originally $75 for the pair!

Charming seller. I hope his next shipment of Viagra is fake. Nothing dangerous or potentially fatal, of course, just "non-functioning". "But hey, the bottle is genuine plastic!"

Sorry we missed that one too.

If it's genuine, and that's a very big "IF", it would be a recent re-issue and not a true vintage bag, the original vintage versions didn't have linings. And since the vintage originals had creed patches or stamps and serial numbers, there's no reason why a remake wouldn't have them too.

I don't do newer styles, but the hangtag, regardless of what's trying to be an outlet stamp on it, just doesn't look right at all. The Coach logo is crooked and looks much too small for the hangtag.

Are there ANY kind of fabric tags inside the bag, such as "made in" or any tags sewn all the way down on the bottom seam of an inside pocket? If there are no sewn in tags at all I doubt very seriously if it's genuine. Please feel around in the pocket(s) and seams and post photos if you find any.

Please wait for someone familiar with newer styles to take a look.
