I'm not totally comfortable with the bag or with authenticating it for several reasons.

1. Seller didn't post pictures of the actual item
2. Style is highly faked and closely faked
3. Every other bag of this style (4593) is on a site that is loaded with close fakes and in countries where known for peddling fakes.

Personally, if I were the buyer of the bag in the listing, I'd file a dispute for a return claiming SNAD (significantly not as described). The bag you received is not the one shown in the listing, thus making the SNAD claim valid.

I'm sorry but I can't say for sure whether it's authentic or not (based on what I've seen) but the seller wasn't honest in the listing.

Thanks much. The seller has agreed to the return so I'd rather send it back.

1- genuine, and the seller's description is accurate.

2- genuine, but whoever created or added to that "What do the numbers mean?" page about a third of the way down messed up, and doesn't know how to read a Coach serial number. The "4" in the serial prefix indicates it was made in 1994, not 1998.

Thanks! Good to know about the numbers page.

I believe that the bag is okay.

It looks as if Coach used (at least) 2 different stamps in 1995 at the H plant and though I didn't find another from October 1995 (as in the listing in question), I found another of the same style from a month later that appears to be done with the same stamp.


Other opinions are welcome.
