Hi! I'm new to this forum and buying vintage bags. I bought one on eBay before finding this forum, but I am having doubts about it already...

Item: EUC Vintage Y2K Brown Leather Coach Bag

Listing number: 326132640013

Seller and site where listed: m_steen33 on eBay

Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/326132640013

Comments: It's cute enough that I will carry anyway, but I want to know for certain if someone asks.
It's authentic but it isn't vintage yet. It was made in 2006 so it has a few more years before it will be vintage.

Can you please give me an approximate year when this bag was new. I thought it was an early one, since it didn't have the Coach ID#, but it didn't have the "Bonnie Cashin" on the creed.

Yes, brass buckles have "Solid Brass USA" on the back side top. Thank you!

They never put Bonnie Cashin on any creeds. If a bag was made when Bonnie Cashin was at Coach, it won't have a creed at all. Your bag was made mid to late 70s.

Commenrs: Please authenticate this bag wh you get a chance.

Thanks for all your help!

I'm confused. Your request is from September, 2023 so after over 8 months, the listing is no longer viewable. We need to see pictures of the bag.

This is the seller:

ETA: NM! I just realized that the bag in question is the one you posted pictures of.
