Good evening. I just purchased this coach bag. I've had similar one from MK some years ago but gave it away to my mom. To be honest I have loved this bag so much, so once I have seen this one online I decided to get it. Now I just wonder if it's authentic. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

Item: coach bag
Listing number: 138983727
Seller and site where listed: goodwill online
Link: https://shopgoodwill.com/item/138983727

I might just add, that it was with coa but who knows :smile:
It looks fine.
 
Now I’m doubting all my bags lol. Just found this suspicious spot on my Emmie strap where it connects to the bag… what do you guys think about her? I learned my lesson! Authenticate BEFORE purchase lol! :annoyed::yucky:
It's fine. (I'm not sure about the strap but the bag is fine.)

It's not necessary for this bag but as per the post at the top of each page, we need links to listings and seller IDs for future requests.

Both are fine.
 
Today was a very good mail day. I’m pretty sure it’s the real deal but some extra eyes would make me feel better. 9.5”x 10”x5” I was squished into a little box so it’s hard to measure accurately.

Hello my lovely people!

So I've already purchased this bag, have cleaned 'em up, polished the brass. I'm 99% sure is authentic but wanted to double check with the pros. Also, is it really called the Madison? (side note - strap is from my '93 Willis as it came with original non-adjustable)

It's a genuine Madison Satchel Large, style 9765 and made in the mid 1980s, between 1986 and 1988.

Coach has used the name Madison for both individual styles and almost half a dozen various style lines in the last 35 years.

From a 1989 catalog:
