Hello, I am new to vintage Coach bags and I stumbled across the City Bag (9790) and fell in love with the style. I’ve done some poking around trying to find one that’s in good used condition or just needs a little rehab but I want to be sure it’s authentic. I came across this one at Mercari and was hoping to get some thoughts. Or advice on a better place to look. Thank you!

Bag: Coach City Bag 9790
Site: Mercari
Seller: Kelly Brewer
Listing: https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m29...aYUmdsZ_g0nXNwUP0gnxKnkmuEEN1DCsaAnTGEALw_wcB

*Edited to add details


Genuine City Bag made in 2001

ristlet?
Where purchased or how obtained: Long time client. She always brings in her bags with their receipts (love her), but this item she received as a gift.
Comments: If you are able to share any information, we would very much appreciate it.

Thank you very much!

Genuine Suede Drawstring Wristlet, style 7128 and probably made in or around 2003. The color is Denim.

Here's Coach's August 18, 2003 webpage, click on the thumbnail to enlarge:

Hello authenticators!

May someone tell me if they think this piece is authentic?

Item: Regina Bag

Link: https://posh.mk/8hOJmsiUXib

Comments: The leather feels stiffer and smoother than what I’m used to. Also, the turnlock seems loose. In addition to the photos in the link I provided, I attached a few others, for a better overall view.

It's genuine. Leather can be affected by the way it's been taken care of, or NOT taken care of. And turnlocks can loosen over time, the bag is 25 years old. Neither condition is any kind of indication that a Coach is fake.

This one is genuine and made in 1996.
 
Hi Authenticators,

Item: Looks like a Rambler
Where purchased or how obtained: New client
Comments: Looks like 98 if genuine, yes?

Cannot thank you enough!

Item:Coach Court Bag
Listing number:m53053032497
Seller and site where listed: myygarcia on Mercari
Link:https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m53053032497/
Comments: Hi all, I purchased This bag recently but now I am questioning whether or not it’s authentic. It looks a little different than another court bag that I have so I figured I would see if someone could authenticate it. Thanks in advance.


Genuine, made in 1998
