Genuine Court Bag Spectator probably made in the late 1980s or early 1990s

Hi! Would appreciate your expertise if this is an authentic Stewardess bag from Carousel Philippines? Is the creed ok? Thank you!

I think you type the search key in the search box, then select "this thread", then click the red search button.

Yes! That is what I used to do, now it only searches of members of the name I plug in. In the past, if I did a search on a storefront name, usually a list of links where the storefront has been mentioned comes up. Now, it only searches to see if the storefront name is a member name for purseforum.

The bag shown is authentic, made in 2001.

ETA: I'm assuming you took pictures and posted the bag you received. Note that the listing/seller's listing doesn't show nearly enough for a buyer to make an informed buying decision. There are 2 picture of "her" bag and 2 pictures of a random different bag.

But again, if the pictures you've posted are the bag you got, you're fine.

Would you give an example of the search term you're using but not getting desired results?

Thank you! I have not gotten the bag yet but asked for a creed photo. ☺️

Oh gosh. I went in to retry and it is back working as normal again. I am not sure what was going on before. So sorry, I wonder if I am completely losing it!? Lol!!!

Hoping someone can tell me if this is a fake or not. Going to keep it either way, but the serial number seems fake.

Found at a junk/thrift store in west virginia. Thanks.
