Ok, I'll let it go. Your response sounds like its authenticity is questionable.

It's not questionable. She said it was genuine, so it is. She isn't sure what style it is. There are no measurements provided in the listing. It is probably a city bag.

Do you know when Coach started making the Murphy?

Fall 1993.

Do you know when Coach started making the Murphy?

I believe that the murphy bag was first released in 1994.

There's no way in the world that item, whatever it is, can be authenticated or even identified with just those four photos. Whatever it is, it's plastic-coated fabric. Are the three listing photos and the extra one you sent your only basis for bidding on that? The description can't even decide if it's a wallet or a purse.

@Hyacinth, the site is quirky. If you click on the photos in the listing, it shows you more, rather than the close up. It's an authentic pouch.

Here is the Poshmark Link for the bag

"Sonoma 4907"

I can't read the creed.

Good evening authenticators! Could you please take a look at this bag I purchased at a thrift store and let me know if it’s ok? It measures 9.5 wide, 9 high and 3 deep.
Thank you!

Then Mercari is another problem site for me. Sorry. Thanks for the heads-up.

Hello Authenticators, this is my last one for today... is it real?

Item: Coach Vintage Bag, 1994
Listing number:
Seller and site where listed: hdsdanielle, poshmark
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-vintage-bag-1994-628f084bc3c2d0369833003b

Thank you so much!

It looks genuine, from the late 1980s or maybe around 1992, but I can't identify it.

It's not questionable. She said it was genuine, so it is. She isn't sure what style it is. There are no measurements provided in the listing. It is probably a city bag.

I thought it might be a Collegiate bag, 9815.

I thought it might be a Collegiate bag, 9815.

I think the proportions are wrong but it is hard to tell from the photos.
Here's a collegiate and a city.

I never said that its authenticity was questionable. I'm having computer problems and can only see a few of the photos.

The creed is right but I can't see other details of the bag.

The proportions and apparent size of the turnlock compared to the front of the bag makes me think it's a City Bag rather than the much smaller Collegiate.

Was I wrong to report this listing as counterfeit to Mercari? It’s still up.
