Is or was that bag listed somewhere?

Sorry! It is not listed for sale. I was at a store trying to take photos without showing the absolute chaos in the background 😂 (Memorial Day sale!). Do you need me to add better pictures?

Item: Coach Courier (large) pre-creed

Not listed for sale

Seller: Purchased at Lucky Consignment in Burien from reputable reseller. Previous owner history unknown.

Comments: This is a very dark blue vintage Coach without the Coach ID#, as pictured. It appears to be authentic, but I do question the imperfection In the strap that I photographed. It also is in much better condition than what I would expect from this time period (early NYC Coach). Dimensions are 10” x 10” by 4.75”, with depth measured at the bottom corner.

Thank you in advance for your opinion and any comments!

Hi! Could I please get this coach court bag authenticated? The hardware looks good, turnlock looks good, but the font isn’t as deep as I’m used to seeing so I wanted to double check and be safe! Thank you

I hope you didn't buy it.

The bag is fake.

The bag is authentic.

The strap does look bad and I can't say I've seen such a shabby strap on a bag. It's possible that the strap may be a replacement.

Other opinions are welcome. Maybe someone has seen a sloppy strap such as the bag has.

ETA: It's not pre-creed since there is a NYC creed.

It's authentic. I've seen that kind of problem on a strap on a early bag before. I'm curious, are the buckles stamped with anything?

Hi!

I thrifted a vintage coach court bag and I have some suspicions about its authenticity. Serial number is 022-8116. It has a lot of consistencies with bags I’ve restored before, but I have my doubts. Any help is appreciated!

Burien as in Washington State Burien? If yes, I'll have to check out this store. Your bag is gorgeous.

I'm not sure what's going on with ebay but the listing wasn't showing up. I was able to pull up a cache of the listing and saw the pictures.

The bag is fine.
