The bag you're asking about is authentic.

However I recommend caution in trusting ETBH (Everything but the House) to authenticate accurately. In the past, I've seen mistakes and a quick search of current listings turned up a fake. The obvious nature of this fake tells me they don't have basic knowledge of Coach!

Thank you! Yes I've learned over time that every "authentication" service on places like ETBH, Poshmark - even the shopgoodwill authenticators make huge mistakes unless they are a REAL Coach expert. Thats why I brought this here.

But, if some online site guarantees authenticity, you usually can get them to return it at least.

PS I'm getting ready to bombard this thread with a bunch of fakes in the next week, I've opened an old estate sale tote with mostly Willis and 9988s and I can't BELIEVE how many fakes are in there. Literally 2/3 fakes I think. I will check with you guys after the last Patricia China I checked here (thinking fake) turned out to be authentic.

Comments: Hi, I am new to the world of vintage Coach bags. I found this bag earlier today and I thought it looked authentic, but I’m not 100% sure. I bought it on a whim already so I hope it is legitimate! I appreciate any and all help!

Item: 9145 Studio Flap in mahogany
Listing number: can't find one
Seller: upscalefinds on Poshmark
