Hi please may I have the following authenticated please:

Item: Berkeley saddle
Listing number: 175397280178
Seller and site where listed: saintstrange and on eBay
Link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/17539728...3R-yxnAQWa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Comments: lovely condition but I’ve noticed the hardware looks different in comparison to others in the vintage range

Thank you so much

The bag itself is a genuine Willis made in 1998, but that doesn't seem to be the original hangtag, it looks gray and not black. The strap is also a less-expensive non-Coach replacement, and there doesn't seem to be any way of adjusting the length.

Please post the link to the Ebay listing. We also require the seller's name or site ID, as listed in the READ ME post at the top of each page. The seller should have disclosed the poorer-quality replacement strap and it affects the value of the bag.

Thank you! I didn’t notice the strap!
I didn’t include the link because it was already purchased (unless it’s still available, I’m not super familiar with eBay, I know the listing disappears on Etsy). My apologies!

I love learning. May I ask how you know it's near-vintage, and not vintage? Is it the design of the hang tag?

Would you please authenticate this bag I purchased at the consignment shop? It's about 12.5" x 9" x 4"
Thank you

Ebay usually keeps sold listings up for at least 90 days if I remember correctly.

We can't really suggest what to do without seeing the listing. There should still be a link to it in your "My Ebay" buying history.

Other suggestions are welcome.

No. We've been mentioning that Costa Rica plant mistake for years.

And that's NOT a 1994 creed.
