The pictures show an authentic bag, made in 2000.

Thank you so much @BeenBurned ! It arrives tomorrow, I’m excited!

Can also I quickly ask when the authenticators who review post-2010 items will be back from vacation? No pressure, just want to bump a post from last week when the time is right.

Ah, so that’s you! Ok, absolutely no rush. I’ll bump next week if it’s missed during catch up. Thanks in advance, you all are so generous with your time and knowledge!

I hope you had a lovely trip!

Hello Authenticators,

Please tell me if this one is authentic, I know its not vintage, and it needs repair, but if its not real, I'm not gonna waste time repairing.

Remember, the "M" plant code isn't a problem. It's a temporary plant code that requires some extra care when authenticating. It can cause confusion because there's really no single set-in-stone font or serial format although there are several ones in our files that we accept as genuine. But it's definitely a code that needs a close look.

So, having looked closely, I don't see any problems. Genuine Daypack made in 1996.

Thank you so much, Professor Hyacinth!

I have no excuse for this authentication. I would, however, direct all interested parties to look at the condition of this bag.

It's NOT from the 1970s. The creed wording and serial number put it somewhere between 1988 and 1992. It's recent enough that the buckles are PLATED, not solid brass, and the plating is already chipping off at lest one of them, note the close-up of one of the buckles. The creed stamp looks genuine, but I'd personally avoid that seller just on principle. Your Mileage May Vary.

And using Cashin's name in a listing posted at least 14 years AFTER she parted company with Coach is borderline deceptive in my book, JMO.

I believe it's the Poppy Floral Scarf Print Tote 25125 in the Dessert Sky Pattern. It looks like a great bag for summer; please post it at the link below!

It's a cold day in February and I'm tired of the winter! I was just reading a discussion about straw bags and it made me think of warmer weather and frivolous summer bags - and that warmed my heart! I used to hold some odd opinions about straw bags. I thought that they were "old ladyish" and...
