Item: Coach feed bag & flight bag
Purchased on Poshmark
Comments: Please authenticate these bags when you get a chance. Thank you!


Please include the LINKS to the Poshmark listings and the sellers' names, as required in the Authentication instructions at the top of almost every page in this thread and also on this thread's Page One. Because of Poshmark's miserable history of allowing fakes to be sold, incorrectly "authenticating" many items in-house, and frequent refusals to refund buyers who bought items that were correctly confirmed as fake, NO Poshmark listings will be authenticated without this information.

Thank you.
 
Apparently I was reading the number correctly. Here's the photo shown in the listing. View attachment 5147731
Thank you @whateve!
Patches in those cosmetic cases NEVER take up one entire side of the pouch. I'll bet you dollars to donuts that piece of leather was cut out of a fake Willis and sewn into the pouch. The stitching is AWFUL and the serial prefix is completely invalid.
I did notice how big the patch was and thought it looked unusual - the reason I was relying on you ladies for guidance! Someone went to so much trouble for nothing.
Thanks so much!
Nope, the creed wasn't cut from a Willis bag. In fact, it's W5S-9927, a new fake number I have several other W7B examples of in my records but this is a first for W5S.

I found a cache of chavestevendedor's listing and enlarged and brightened the creed.

Hello all,

Can someone look this over and see if I did OK at Shopgoodwill.com? We know they can be hit or miss! I've won the auction but haven't paid yet.

Item: Stewardess
Shopgoodwill.com auction
You did fine! It looks like it was made in 2002.
 
Please take a look at this when convenient. Thank you.
Item: COACH Vintage Navy SKINNY CASE COSMETIC/MAKEUP BAG WALLET or CLUTCH
Listing number: 194250980896
Seller: lindsayms1984
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/194250980896?hash=item2d3a42be20:g:OSsAAOSwgGdg-Nsq
Comment: Are the photos enough to authenticate? If authentic, do you have a style number and name? A catalog photo?
It's probably okay. I can't read the creed. I think it says made in the Dominican Republic. It's 7170 skinny case.
 
Item: Legacy Small Pocket Zip 9136 (Costa Rica, 2002)
Seller: Goodwill, $5
Dimensions: 6" tall, 9.5" wide, 2.5" deep

Comments: Please give an opinion about authenticity, thank you. Let me know if you need additional images.

Question: Is the correct name for this bag the "Legacy Small Pocket Zip"? I tried to find it on the Wayback Machine but I struck out (although I found lots of other Legacy, Legacy West, and Legacy Zip bags from this era!)
