Thank you for helping me understand the rules of the forum. So much info, and lots to absorb for a newcomer, so I appreciate your guidance.

The dark brown bag is 11.5” wide by 9” high and about 3” deep (maybe more).
The dark green bag is 12.5” wide at the base and 10.5” wide at the top, 9” high and 4-4.5” deep.

Thank you, those fit with the measurements in Whateve's post.

Hello! Can you please take a look at these two Coach bags and let me know if they are authentic? First one is a tan hobo bag and the other is a black leather handbag.

Both are authentic. The first is an ergo made in 2007, the second is a Madison Isabelle made in 2013. If you bought these online, we need a link to the listings and the seller's name.

OK! Thank You!! That is great News!! I purchased both on ThredUp. Please let me know what information you need from the website.

It's a genuine Soho Thompson Drawstring from 1995. Give me a few minutes to try and find a catalog photo.

OK, got it. From the Fall-Holiday 1995 catalog, click on the thumbnail:

Thanks - Thought I scrolled back far enough to see if it was posted already. I apologize and thank you!

It's a Small Legacy Soft Flap fom 2005. I owned the larger Legacy Soft Flap 9570 in at least 3 different colors. Lovely soft lightweight smooshable leather too. (Just checked, 5 different colors in smooth leather plus 2 in suede, and I still have several of them). The 2-way strap is a nice feature too.

Thank you so much! It still has the care cards and such with it and says the scratches will buff out with soft cloth and coach moisturizer so I think I'm going to try that and then probably keep it. Lol it's adorable. I've got quite the vintage to older coach collection now. I just want to keep them all.

Interesting - I just noticed that Brown is not a listed color for this bag, but I've always thought mine looked Dark Brown. It doesn't appear to be dyed either, but I really don't think it's Mahogany. (Maybe dunking it will prove me wrong.) Is there any info that might show it was released in Brown at some point?
Dunking brought out the reddish of Mahogany - yeah! All this time I thought it was dark brown. Very glad to have the catalog colors you provided @Hyacinth.

Hello again,
I hope someone can Authenticate this Coach.
I found this beauty at my local Goodwill last week and since it was like new, I paid full price (ps. their prices have gone up like crazy) so I hope I bought an authentic 9892 Coach Spring Lock Bag. Any input is truly appreciated and my apologies if I posted this wrong. I'm still learning.
Thank you! I appreciate all your expertise here at this forum. ♥️

You can't always depend on all colors to be in the catalogs. And sometimes certain colors were only available to certain retail partners, such as Macy's.

Wait until after you dunk it to figure out what color it is.
