Here's a "lot" I got. Does the brown Willis bag look good? Is there enough here to tell? I zoomed in on the blurry creed and it does look like it says 9927. Thank you! If it's not enough photos, I'll wait until it's in hand and ask again.

Personally I'd be more comfortable waiting until you have the Coach in hand and can take a clearer photo of the creed and serial number. If another authenticator can see more details than I can and wants to authenticate based on that, no problem.

This was my grandmother’s bag, I was just wondering about the value of it now. Should I keep it pristine or start using it? Thank you to anyone who can help!image.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg

Thank you! I'm taking a chance on the bag because even without the strap it's a good deal! And, if authentic, condition looks great.

Not an authenticator here, but feel like commenting anyway. The value fluctuates, simply based on how much someone wants to pay. Check out Coach NY basic bag on google shopping and see what people are asking for similar bags at the moment. I think you should use it and enjoy it.

Hello there, hoping to authenticate what I believe to be a Dinky.

Purchase at Goodwill
Dimensions are approx. 9 inches long, 5ish inches tall and a little under 2 inches deep. Hope these photos come through well.

Thank you as always, for your time.

#1 is fake.
#2 and #3 are authentic. #3 isn't a Waverly, it's a Soho buckle bag.
