Instagram seller clothesbrandshub. Many of the seller's Instagram pictures are taken at the stores so that doesn't prove anything other than she visited a store. From what I see (without logging in), there aren't any pictures of the actual items.

(May I ask where this IG seller is located?)

Thanks all for your help and prompt reply
I contacted them and They r apologising and said that this creed says its not authentic and that they will dispute with their source and will return it

@Zowm - I'll ask this again as it wasn't answered. Where is the seller located? (I have some guesses but I want confirmation.)

I can guarantee that EVERY item clothesbrandshub sells is fake and they know exactly what they're getting from their "source."

I think it's okay. The creed is really hard to read.

@Mustloveoldthings If you use an eyeshadow brush to dust light-colored eyeshadow over the creed, sometimes that makes it easier to read and photograph.

Item: Tango Flap Bag 9049, Dark Brown with Silver (Costa Rica, 1998)
Seller: Thrift Store, $19.51
Dimensions: 6" high, 7" wide, 2.5" deep

Comments: Please give an opinion about authenticity, thank you.

I've never seen a Tango bag IRL and I hesitated to buy this one because the reverse side of the female portion of the turnlock is different from most of my vintage Coach bags but the male portion is fine. Also because I am used to seeing brass hardware with dark brown (mahogany?) classic coach bags. On top of all that the hangtag is missing so I almost took a pass, but the bag just "felt right to me" so I decided to take a chance.

I've looked at ebay and some of the other online auction sites and I've seen bags that look just like mine and some that have the traditional hardware so I don't know what to think. I would greatly appreciate benefiting from your expertise, thanks!

Thank you- I'll get the shadow on the creed and post another picture. I appreciate your time.
