A huge congrats to you!! I was lucky enough to find one two months ago too but haven’t rehabbed yet. Hyacinth kindly authenticated her as well.
I’m trying to get my skills better on other bags as I’m so excited to do mine. The color shows about the same as yours.

Dear authenticators, request to authenticate please. Thank you!
Item: Carousel
Where purchased or how obtained: thrift store
Comments: Leather is nice and soft and thick like my other authenticated Coach. Hardware appears to be same as on the other authenticated Coach bags. Stitching is nice and even. There is a number embossed on the bottom of the bag; 28.1. The creed is soooo faint, I tried to get the best photo I could possibly take. The leather pulls, both the main compartment and the little pocket inside do not seem like Coach. The dimensions are about 9" height, 9" width and 3" depth. I need your expert advice please. Thank you!

Ok y’all, I know this should be in the rehab forum but I wanted to follow-up on the City saga. This morning, I cut that horribly botched strap off the bag and then decided to experiment with replacing hardware for the first time, which I’ve never done out of fear. Me-a surgeon!! LOL! And it was so easy! I cleaned and polished everything, then used it to replace the turnlock on my $10 green Logan. It’s always been wonky and didn’t work so I never reached for it. Now it looks great and I’m using it today. I dropped the bag off at Goodwill with hopes that someone will use the beautiful leather for something. Thank you to everyone for your advice about the return-I appreciate you all, as usual. I know you all were right and I had a SNAD case if I wanted to pursue it. But, something about doing that felt icky to me, and I didn't do it. I just ate the cost, learned a lesson and gave the seller a little grace. Maybe I’ll need some one day...8BDE13BA-C2B5-4AF2-8B4F-6F7197647172.jpeg

Good morning,
Wondering if one of you would mind having a look at the following:
Item: messenger bag
Seller: Mollywee9492
Listing site: ebay
link : https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Vintage-Coa...ag-Commuter-Tote-Large-Crossbody/174233159412

Wondering if you might be able to tell the original colour? The lighting in the photos is not great. Maybe a light mocha? Or a BT?
Thank you so much, have a fabulous day!

It's authentic, made in 2001. The color looks like camel.
