Item: Coach Ergo Mini
Serial No.: H7C-9027
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintag...i-ErgoHobo-Pre-Owned-640bcb6db635f8fcb5cc15dc

New to this, so please let me know if this is authentic! Preliminary research I did seems to point to no issues with the serial number, but obviously the image of the stamp is blurry and as such it's hard to make out much of the text. Any insight is very much appreciated

Comments: I've never seen a red version of this style and wondering whether it's fake? I have the black one and the size and details are exactly the same.

It's authentic.

That site has so many Korean fakes!

oh, wow! I did not have my hopes up but this is surprising! I'm glad I took the chance!
Thank you so much @BeenBurned !! Really exciting to know this! If Coach made this in Red, I wonder what other colors they made this in. I know that the catalog indicates that this style was made in Black and Mahogany. I wish they made this in green.

Again, thank you so much~.

There's a small chance. Other styles in the line were made in leaf, including 9033.

This gigantic style in Leaf will be a statement bag! I personally think it would look really good in Bone.

I have a "Willis Bag", purchased in 2005 in Portland, OR at an estate sale. Measures 10.5Wx10"Hx3"D. It has strange color variations--edges are much lighter than body, and strap darker than body. Is it authentic?

It's authentic. I don't know what caused the color variation. Sometimes this happened because the trim leather took the dye differently from the other leather.

Thank you, whateve! You should be enjoying your weekend!

 

[JellyHime]

I don't believe it's authentic.

Other opinions are welcome.

Can you explain why it's not authentic? I'm just trying to get more info cause in my hand, the leather feels thick and soft and the stitching look as good as my other vintage Coach. Granted, I don't have a fake on hand to compare it to. I tried to get more opinions and someone mentioned that it looks like it has 'B' plant fonts except for the 'C' so maybe it's an error? Not entirely sure...
