Item: Coach Purse
Purchased/obtained:I bought this “coach” purse off of Poshmark. I didn’t think twice about it being authentic because I liked the bag.
Comments: I’m thinking if it’s authentic it’s from before 1994 but it’s made in Italy and the hardware isn’t Coach’s usual style.
Measurements: approx 12”x 8”x 5”

Genuine pre-1994 Sonoma. I'm not sure of the style name, probably the Medium Flap Bag #4903.

Dear Authenticators, please take a look at this bag when you have a chance.
Item: Coach vintage black leather Whitney messenger bag
Seller and site where listed: bessus2014 on ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/325752407834
Comments: I suspect she made a mistake with the price. So, if that was the case, I gave her the choice to cancel the sale. If the bag is fake, I will fight for my moolah :smile:
