The bag is fine but it was originally solid color leather. I think the bag in the listing is mushroom.

This is the stock image:

Local garage sale so no link, but the seller was kind enough to send a few pictures ahead of time.

Pre-1994 (White? Bone?) Dinky:




Pre-1994 Scooter:




Pre-1994 City Bag:




I’m pretty confident the Dinky and City are authentic but the Scooter seems a little off to me.

Hi,
I bought this coach Willis on eBay. The straps were in the original picture and turned out to be way different (thinner, not adjustable) than my other Willis straps, although the color matches well.

I am annoyed at all the undisclosed pen marks that will never come out.

Here’s the original link

My pictures are attached. I didn’t get a good photo of the turn lock, but the panel is flat.

please let me know if you think this is authentic or not.
Thanks!!!

The bag is genuine, the strap and hangtag probably came from another bag.

I'm not going to lecture you about not buying Coaches that don't show any creed or serial photos or photos of the inside of the bag, but please remember this experience in the future. If you zoom in on the third photo you can just barely make out some of the pen marks, but that photo doesn't even come close to showing the extent of the damage.

But you may have a legitimate SNAD claim. There is serious and usually permanent damage to the bag from those pen marks even if they can't be seen from the outside until you open the flap and then they're no longer invisible. Not only did the seller not disclose them, but although she listed it as "pre-owned", Ebay's description of "pre-owned" clearly says

"Pre-owned
An item that has been used or worn previously. See the seller’s listing for full details and description of any imperfections."

Security Measure

www.ebay.com

I'm reading that as requiring that sellers have to FULLY disclose any imperfections in the listing description or photos. Maybe @BeenBurned can clarify that.

The Willis is genuine but there's no way I would keep that bag in that condition.

The pen marks are UNDISCLOSED DAMAGE. On Ebay that can be a magical term--open a case, you will win and get your money back including shipping both ways.

Thanks for your assessment. I don’t like these kind of surprises and doubt anyone does. I appreciate your advice and I’m definitely learning about what to watch out for. I’m going to keep looking for my forever british tan Willis purse
