I have my eye on these two NYC Basic Bags:

Item: Classic Coach shoulder bag, made in New York City, vintage@ 1970s,
Listing number: 231692211522
Seller: qandainusa
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/231692211522?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Item: Vintage Coach Black Leather Handbag Purse
Listing number: 281803976417
Seller: meodi2012
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281803976417?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

As well as this City Bag(?) with a completely incorrect item name that I impulse-bought before authenticating because I'm dumb and impatient:

Item: Vintage COACH Bonnie Cashin era Coach Stewardess Bag Flap NYC Pocketbook
Listning number: 131605282126
Seller: rusticdoor
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-COA...7ke58GythLNejTdC1IkCg%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Any help is much appreciated! From what I can tell the creeds look okay, but I bow before the experts. I know the third bag is neither a Stewardess bag nor Cashin-era, but I'm hoping it's still an NYC bag ;)

The bag seems okay but the seller's feedback has 2 negs as well as a neutral for items that weren't received. (One non-receipt might be an item lost; for a seller to have 3 of them, that's a bit worrisome.)

All three are fine. The City bag is one of the few rare ones I've seen with a NYC creed since the style didn't come out until around 1987.

I can't recommend mypurseorphanage as she has another fake. A seller who has this many Coach items needs to learn how to verify their authenticity.

looks good.

Note that the seller has several errors in the lisitng.

Title shows prefix as: H12D
Description states prefix as: H8P
Creed image shows prefix (Correctly) as: H1D

Note that the bag was made in 2001 so won't be vintage for 6 more years.
