Please just "BUMP" your post by using the REPLY button in the post to move it forward and put BUMP at the top of the new post.

I don't know if Depop requires membership to view listings, but I can't see the photos.

I think Depop blocks users from certain countries to view their website. I couldn't access it either, but it works fine with a proxy. A proxy is an addon/extension to your browser that changes your IP address to that from another country. Most of these extensions are free, if you're using Chrome, hide.me works OK for me most of the time.

Or blueicy333 could save the pictures on her device and repost them here.

Thanks for the information!

It could also be that I'm using an out of date Windows version, which limits me to an out of date browser too. But I'll check into a proxy or extension.
 
Hello and thanks in advance for any assistance!

Item: Coach Crescent
Listing number: 224781389729
Seller and site where listed: cassette.tapes at ebay.com
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224781389729
Comments: Purchased this bag early this morning, as didn't want to risk it being sold. Pre-creed, so not much to go on in this regard. The strap looks a bit different in that the leather along the top edges appears to be rolled then sewn. The seller has another Crescent listed that has IRREGULAR to the right of the creed and also sold another Crescent a short while ago.

There are no carved in stone schedules for how long a style stays in production, it depends almost completely on how well the item sells. I've seen some styles disappear after only a few months, and others chug on for years or even decades although most of the time they're discontinued for a few years, brought back for a year or two, discontinued again, brought back again, etc. Every style's history is different. Some popular Coach styles have been re-introduced at least 3 or 4 times.


My records on the 9755 Pocket Purse show a 1989 introduction, discontinued or at least disappeared briefly from the catalogs in 1993, popped back up in 1994, disappeared from the catalogs again, popped up AGAIN in 1995, and reappeared off and on until around 2003. Like I said, there's no schedule, it's whatever the market will bear. As for "collections", the Pocket Purse like most standard smooth leather styles, was considered part of the very large and very permanent Classics Collection and the "Classics" have been available in various versions for most of Coach's history, at least until recently, which means until the last 10 years or so.

Remember, NO RULES. The first thing you need to learn is our Coach Mantra - "The most consistent thing about Coach is their inconsistency". Repeat that every night before you go to sleep. :biggrin:
That was well written! Thank You!!!!
