coach bag
i got this bag from a friends mom
I need help identifying this bag :smile: i’ve checked pretty much everywhere. I’m well aware that this may be a fake.
I don’t exactly know where the serial number is. I’ve spent hours trying to find it but i think it’s inside of the tag.
I have the leather version (45012) and there is no number inside.
It's authentic. It was made for the outlets. I believe it was part of the Penelope collection. Smaller bags like this often don't have creeds or serial numbers.
It's a Penelope signature swingpack and I believe the style number is 45026. I may be incorrect on the style number because there were various bags with different trims that may have had a different style number.
 
Great thanks, do you know the name of it? When I looked up a desciption online, a Bridgitte showed up. However this does not have a place to put a strap, it is just a clutch. Would this be a Bridgette clutch then?
It's not a Bridgit. Bridgit was a 2006/2007 Legacy collection item. This was made for the 2012 Legacy collection. It probably had "archival" as part of the name.
 
1- genuine, from 2006

2- genuine, made in 2008

3- genuine, 2007

4- genuine and made in 2010
Thank you. Found this one on Poshmark
 
I'm relatively new here, so I'm not exactly sure what you mean by seller ID. I thought seller ID is just their profile/closet name? But below is each seller's link to their shops so you can check out their other items if you are still curious. Btw, I was able to get my money back so thanks again!

Seller of the fake DayPack (mysavvycloset): https://www.mercari.com/u/713302358/
Seller of the fake Soho Zip (ach350): https://www.mercari.com/u/239283590/
Thanks.

First is mysavvycloset
Second is Ach 350

The reason we want the IDs (names of closets) is so that if someone is considering purchasing from them and searches either TPF or Google, those names will come up and potential buyers can see the history, both good and bad. This helps a buyer learn about a seller's reputation.

In fact Ach 350 also has these fakes:
 
Thank you. Found this one on Poshmark
Where did they get the idea it was made in 1951? That's not true at all! It was made in the early 90s. It's a swagger #9820.
