Hello. Could someone take a look at this bag, please? I know it's on PM...it was a late night, couldn't sleep, supposed to be window shopping purchase. I was tired and it wasn't costly so I bought it. I am not too familiar with creeds before 94, so maybe a silly move on my part. I want to identify the style so I would like another opinion. Thank you for your time!

It's authentic but I can't find the style. Maybe someone else can.

I have never gotten a fake with a COA from goodwill, but I have gotten a couple with a COA from Entrupy that had the color of the bag wrong on the certificate and another where it just wasnt the same bag at all.
Idk if it was a mixup at goodwill or entrupy just got it wrong. They were similar vintage bucket bags but the style on the certificate was for a larger round bottom bag.
****************** authenticated this bag with the following certificate.

Wow. Nice bag. Yes I see the picture of the bag on the certificate looks more like a duffle bag. I guess I need to pay more attention to these COAs. Thanks bolsathemosta ☺️

Too bad the photos don't show the sides of the bag. But I'm pretty sure it's a Light Hobo from the Lightweight line, style 4017 and from the early 1990s. The photo details fit the catalog description.

Dear authenticators, can I please request help to authenticate this whiplash saddle , I bought it from a really nice lady from my coach canadian group, who in turn got it from the realreal (I think I found the original listing from the real real so I have added it) https://www.therealreal.com/product...1-pebbled-leather-crossbody-873i8?position=25
Seller : from my canada coach fan group
Dimensions: H 12 in × l 14 inch × with 3 3/4 (9cm )
There is no white tag inside (I look everywhere for it) , and the creed google only shows me the saddle 23 but this is a size 35 ; the seller is very nice and told me if there are any issues I can return.
Thank you again , I appreciate the help

You had posted on another thread and I responded thinking it was on this authentication one.

The bag is fake. Here's my post followed by a couple more of my posts telling what I think you should do.

Thank you so much, Hyacinth! I will post more pics in the appropriate identify thread when I can.

That's probably not necessary, except maybe for a pic of one of the sides. After owning one of those I'm pretty confident that's what it is. I really loved the bag and the shape and squishyness, but the lack of an outside pocket just didn't work out for me, I'm definitely a Pocket Person.

Hi All,

found this and would like to know if this is authentic. I googled around some says it is Legacy Slim Duffle or Bucket Shoulder (not sure which is correct)

Your description intrigues me. I've been curious about the Lightweights. Thank you so much for the information.

Thank you so much for the quick reply, @BeenBurned! I received a special offer for the 9966, have already committed to purchase, but not paid for it.

How should I proceed with the other 2 bags? Should I advise the seller they are NOT authentic and supply the seller with the evidence of how that was determined? Or, do I report to Ebay? Is proof of inauthenticity required?

Many thanks for your invaluable help!!!
