Bumping in case this got lost. I really love a blue bag, so I'm hoping this is real.

I can’t seem to find any answers whether this bag exists. I got this in the secondhand market. It seems quite well made but not sure if it is real leather either 😩

Was the second hand market an online listing? Can it be reported and can you get a refund?

I think this looks okay but I don't think it is Ashley. I think it is Kristin.

Thank you! You’re right, it’s totally a Kristin. Apparently I have Ashley on the brain - sorry!

 

[KitOHara]

It's authentic. AFAIK the script was used for many outlet styles.

Good to know - totally confused myself. Thank you for doing all of these.

 

[GoWithTheFlow]

It's authentic. For future reference, we don't need to know the zipper brand for Coach items.

Thank you so much for your fast reply and for the information, I appreciate it!

I think I thrifted a vintage Coach City bag and am guessing it could be from the late 1980’s. Any insight would be appreciated! I love knowing the history of my bags!

Can you please help identify whether it's a real Coach 9144 or fake? The strap is definitely from another purse. the number is
CON-9144
Thank you so much!

Authentic but not a city bag. I'm guessing a compartment bag #9850, made 1989-1993.

The bottom part of the bag is authentic, Legacy Studio Flap made in 2000. The strap, tassel, and genuine leather tag are obviously from another bag.

Please pay attention to the rules of the thread, as noted in the first post on each page. We need to know where the bag was obtained and if it was listed online, we need a link.

Hello Authenticators,

When you are able please could you take a look at this Coach Vintage Patricia Legacy. Thanks so much. Your time is very appreciated.

Item: Coach 9951

Listing number: 156655418431

Seller/site: eBay twintops21

Link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/15665541...TMMG93YSfK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

notes: I know Patricia Legacies are often faked and not sure about the creed spacing/font but I was drawn in. The hardware and leather look thick and chunky. With some research, I found this bag was reissued in 04/05 and I know Coach moved most production to China in 01. But I’m likely being overly optimistic. Obviously, expert knowledge would be appreciated. Thanks again.
