I was wondering if anyone could tell me about this coach bag. The only thing someone had told me was that it was so rare that Coach hear to find and buy one for their archives. Please and thank you.

I see you have sold this bag on poshmark? Have you not sent it out yet? Be careful with legality if you are trying to sell it elsewhere..

Hi, so some of my vintage Coach friends online made me aware of this post. I am the buyer of the bag on postmark. I am very excited to get this bag to add to my collection. I was wondering when you would be able to ship it?

Hello authenticators,

I wanted to ask for your expertise to confirm my doubts about this bag's authenticity.

Item: Vintage Coach Crescent Bag
Listing number: 62868a6389a0ea651b60724a
Seller and site where listed: Matylda6620 / Poshmark
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-...e-Bag-Crossbody-9988-62868a6389a0ea651b60724a
Comments: All of the seller's bags I've seen have been genuine so I didn't think this one would be an issue. Included additional, detailed photos below. The leather is stiff and unlike the vintage Coach bags I have. Luckily the seller is nice and has responded.

Thank you so much!

Apparently the seller has a history here. I probably shouldn't even be looking. But....it's RED!

Vintage COACH Dk Red Leather SCOOTER CROSSBODY BAG 9893 USA

Seller: the_primitive_pumpkin

I'm not sure if the creed photo is good enough for authentication. I know some of the authenticators can lighten and brighten photos but I have no idea.

(small voice). but....red!

I really wish they would have flipped the creed picture. I think it looks good.

I see you have sold this bag on poshmark? Have you not sent it out yet? Be careful with legality if you are trying to sell it elsewhere..

Hi, so some of my vintage Coach friends online made me aware of this post. I am the buyer of the bag on postmark. I am very excited to get this bag to add to my collection. I was wondering when you would be able to ship it?

Without even seeing the Poshmark listing, my comment is in response to @rendunigan 's post about the "legality" of selling elsewhere. Perhaps I misunderstood your post @rendunigan. Why would there be an illegality?

Although I don't recommend, promote or authenticate listings from any sellers on Poshmark (nor do I trust or recommend the PM site), there's nothing illegal about a seller doing her due diligence and verifying authenticity here so she can legally resell!

In fact, that's precisely why we authenticators in the Coach subforum are perfectly willing and agreeable to help sellers stay honest!

I have no idea when (or if) the bag was "sold" on PM but if a seller is selling and not following through, that's for the seller to deal with Poshmark.

Why do I have the feeling that there's an ulterior motive from 2 newbies?

Oh, you noticed that too? Funny how they seem to be carrying out their "discussion" here, isn't it?

And unless they want to post a standard by-the-rules authentication request including a link to the Poshmark (?) listing in question, I think we can probably ask the Mods to delete both posts. (And maybe both members?) This thread is for AUTHENTICATIONS, not private accusations or requests for shipping information for a purchase on another site that belong on THAT selling site or privately between 2 of its members.

Poshmark certainly has been known to close their eyes to public disputes between members before. Maybe they're trying to keep out of Posh's sight for some reason? Especially if there's a chance we may have seen at least one of the "new" members here or at Posh more than once, possibly under different names. And why does one of them "LIKE" the post of the other one? Seems a bit odd.

For some reason a name or group keeps popping into my head... or am I just excessively suspicious? Throwing out accusations or insinuations on Posh without any proof seems to be accepted there. Either way, they can either follow THIS forum's rules or take their discussion back to Poshmark.

Comments? Criticisms?

(Comments from rendunigan and RedCoaster would be welcome as well, if they'd like to explain what's going on.)
