Boy--do I feel terrible. This bag--a consigned item--was pulled from Ebay due to it being reported as counterfeit. The owner believed it to be an authentic City Bag (9790), and is upset. It was listed under 360kelly (seller), and I can't seem to be able to attach original listing. It's approx 11" wide, 8" high, 3.5" deep, and strap drop up to 20". Could you please list the items which point to it being fake? Thank you very, very much!

I can't help unless you provide a readable copy of the seller's photo of the creed stamp and serial number and if possible, the back of the turnlock that shows the prongs that hold the 2 parts together.

It's authentic. I love the color!
 
Thanks @whateve, for the quick response. Happy to hear! The yellow is indeed so cute...

Have you any idea on what type of bags they are and their aprox. age? Thanks again!
👌👌👌
The yellow is a retro Lindy bag made around 1991. The pictures of the other one are no longer available. If I remember correctly, it might have been a Barclay tote.

Good day!
Could you take a look at this, please?

Item: Manor #9977
Where purchased: ThredUp
Measurements: 9.5” x 8.25” x 4”
Comments: is the strap authentic for this bag? I’ve seen this bag have 2 different hardware hooks - this lobster claw and the dog leash.

TIA 🙂☘️

It's authentic. The only catalog picture I have shows a dogleash clip attachment. Straps often get interchanged.
