Hello again, of course the bag I was going to buy got sold :annoyed: and my second favorite one had a price increase when I was about to buy it. I would appreciate it if you would take a peek at this other bag. Thanks for you time!
Item: Vintage COACH Willis Bag Satchel Crossbody British Tan Leather Made In USA 9927
Listing number: 224872100198
Seller and site where listed: thesteelnest on ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224872100198#rpdCntId
Comments: I messaged the seller about the turnlock and didn't get a response. No phone number listed.
 
The red one looks like it has mold damage. That should be treated as soon as possible to avoid more damage.
I don' t know if it is mold. It looks like indentation marks which has turned dark. I had it soaked and washed in warm water and dish drops but the marks wouldnt go away. It is not really noticeable unless one looks at it closely. The camera catches all the flaws! But I will take your advice and try to look for solution to treat it.
Thank you ya :)

Is this an active ;listing or a bag that's actually in your possession? We need that information.
Sorry. just got it but isn’t sure.

If items are or WERE listed online even if in your possession, please post links to the listings and seller ID from which they came.

I speak for myself but there are sites and/or sellers whose listings I won't authenticate and sites I won't support. And since the forum rules require the info, we want and need to see the sources. (As with the Taft, Poshmark is one of the sites I avoid so I want to know where the item came from.)

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the knowledge I gained here. It has helped me take each baby step in my small business.

Although I had a few hiccups at the very beginning, my goal now is to become one of the honest sellers out there.

Once again, thank you and most importantly, let’s all keep safe. Health is the most important thing in life.

I will for sure remember to attach my link if I already have the item for sell.

I'm not sure if you misunderstood. You can't post a link to your own listing. We want to see the links to listings you bought from, even though you may have received the item and are posting your own pictures.

Oh I see. There is actually no link on this particular one. I didn’t buy it anywhere online. I bought it from a friend. Going forward, if I bought it online, I will put the link where I bought from. Sorry I misunderstood.

Okay. And if you bought from a thrift, friend, yard sale, whatever, just state that.

It's genuine.
 
Item: Coach zipper pouch
Listing number: n/a
Seller and site where listed Vleopardette on Poshmark

comments: please authenticate when you get a chance. Thank you. I don’t think it has a Coach creed in it.


It's a genuine Organizer Caddy, style 4514 and was introduced in 1997. From the Summer 1997 catalog:
