Good evening:
Could someone please take a look at this Coach bag? Thank you in advance!
Item: Vintage COACH Devon Leather Crossbody
Seller and site where listed: vintagecollectorllc (eBay)
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/393611184128?autorefresh=true&nma=true&si=tnSNOLWSA3g7QEKVxFXRhPlWoyc%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
It looks good.
Although that bag is authentic, vintagecollectorllc doesn't verify her items. This is a fake she has listed:

Every seller should make sure she has legal items!

1- genuine Coach BUT NOT A STEWARDESS. Maybe a Ranch Bag? And maybe not an NYC bag either.
Hard to believe that any seller could make such obvious mistakes.

2- genuine, early to mid 1980s

3, genuine, but a lot of wear for a 20-year old bag. It's NOT from the mid 1980s as the seller claims, it was made in 2001.That's a big difference.

Thank you so much!!!
 
A family member purchased a bag on ebay as a gift using my account (with permission, of course). The bag is smaller than anticipated and I was asked to verify that it's authentic. Thank you in advance, authenticators!

VTG Coach Crescent Saddlebag Pre-Creed Hippie Flap Purse Bag Leather Mocha
Seller: calup930
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/255043655458
Item: 255043655458

The bag is small, which I also did not expect. I've had vintage saddle and crescent bags before (sadly sold) and all were larger.
Frankly I think it's real but promised I'd ask.
