That's strange that you can't see the pictures, @Hyacinth. Were you trying to scroll across? If you scroll down, there are a few more pictures.

The bag is fine and I'm pretty sure that the wallet is too! You got a great deal!

No, BB, it's probably an "unsupported browser" problem. Scrolling down doesn't help. Thanks!
 
Request for authentication, the bag is in my possession. I’ve had it for a while and have just been obsessing over it since I got it. Everything seems fine to me except the color is just off. It’s like a cross between Jade and Bottle. I suppose it could be dye lot variance or whatnot but I’d like a second set of eyes on her.

Both are genuine and made in 2000.

There's a problem with the black Court Bag strap though. The end has been cut off, it's straight across and shouldn't be. The buckle holes are too far from the strap end. And in the model picture it looks like the strap buckle sits right on the shoulder when it's at full length and it shouldn't. Coach NEVER does that, and it's REALLY uncomfortable to wear. I got stuck with one like that from Ebay and the strap was unwearable with the buckle digging into my shoulder. I think the strap has been badly butchered and you would have to replace it if you bought the bag. It's not disclosed in the listing either.

Find another seller.

I peruse this thread daily to learn from the awesome authenticators. As if it wasn't enough to consistently devote so much of their personal time to ensure we are purchasing authentic bags, they offer golden nuggets of observed shortcomings that we, with less experience, may not pick up on. @Hyacinth's above comment is just one of those important catches that might prevent an unsuspecting buyer from a messy return or extra costs to find a suitable strap.

I apologise for interrupting the thread, but felt compelled to take a moment to wholeheartedly thank the authenticators for their generosity and guidance! :heart: :hugs: :love:
 
Hi Authenticators,
Could you please look at the Nomad from this lot? I've had it for a while and thought I lost the link but after scrolling through all my deleted emails from 2020 I finally found it! I appreciate any input.
Thank you!!
Ps. I can take more pics if needed.

It seems fine.

Looks good to me.

I'm not sure of the color but it's lovely!
 
Hi, could you please have a look at this very dry and very dirty thrift shop find. I don’t know what it is about the hard cases. I guess I love a good challenge. It’s approximately 8.75”x9.5”x2”. Sorry about the creed pic. It’s the best I could do, even busted out the cornstarch. It reminds of those blurry Bigfoot pictures.

I can't be sure but I believe I'm seeing M4N-4154. If that is the case, it's fake.
