Is this a real coach bag? It's ebay

I've never posted here before, not sure if this is the right way.

Thanks - I've been looking at some others too, then realized there's more to buying Coach online than I though.

It's a genuine Coach Metropolis Bag made in 1997.

Hello I am not an authenticator but your link is not to the seller Varoom1234

Could someone please authenticate this MFF Coach set?
50% off sale at local kitty shelter thrift...wristlet was inside pouch!
Pouch: approx. 8.5"w x 5.5"h x 3.75"d. Strap 7" to rings.
Wristlet: approx. 6.25"w x 4.5"h x .5"d. Strap 6" to rings.
Bpth have open inside pocket and no creed.
I'm guessing the big one is a Signature Stripe Top Handle Pouch of some sort, the other a Signature Stripe Wristlet.
Thanks in advance for further info on name, age and style # :)
Both pieces are fine.

I was just going to point that out.

This is the listing from varoom1234
http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-ALMOS...7-EXCELLENT-/331670190478?hash=item4d3915798e

And in fact, the first listing from zoef65 isn't vintage either. It was made in 1999 and won't be vintage for 4 years.
 
Item: COACH Brown Leather Crossbody Purse 9976 EUC!
Listing number: 231706131923
Seller: maryrose36
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Brown...se-9976-EUC-/231706131923?hash=item35f2c2fdd3
Comments: The text in the serial number on the creed looks wrong to me. Should I report? Thanks!

Yes, there's a LOT wrong with that stamp! The borders around the Coach logo are too thick, the serial number font is too thick. Also the strap buckle is wrong, the top zipper should have a brown fabric backing to match the leather, and the metal top zipper pull is a complete fake and a design never found on genuine Coaches, only fakes. The outside pocket isn't quite right either.
 


Thanks for the link Hyacinth, I read all the links u provided. Unfortunately I still don't get it. [emoji37] I must b very stupid with this kind of stuff. I will post question on Vtg Coach n try to learn more
