(think this'll be easy to care for? Also I shouldn't have a fear of color transfer should I?...) Also i'm 5'3", 110lbs, noodle armed, will this fit easy on my shoulder?


Can someone authenticate this for me? :angel:

:tup: This look good. I think it should be fairly easy to care for. The suede bottom may show some wear as suede tends to do, but wouldn't be too noticeable since it's a darker color. I don't know about color transfer... I'm thinking the colored suede might transfer if you're wearing lighter-colored clothing, but that's just my guess. I think it should fit over the shoulder pretty easily, but you may want to ask the seller what the strap drop is.

Hi -- reposting this because I don't see a response. Can anyone tell me if this is good? Does it look to you like there are spots on the patent?
Thanks so much!

This has ended, but would really have liked to see a closer picture of the creed. It looked ok so far.

thanks a bunch! :D
 
I would pass on this one. Something looks off to me about this. This seller has sold several fake keychains and already sold the same bag in another auction using the same pictures as this auction. Also, the creed looks different from other creeds I've seen from this same style made in the same year.


Thanks so much....it helps when someone supports a feeling that something is off.
 
:tup: This is authentic and so adorable! I've been watching this one too! :p I love this style - it came out a few years ago, and yes, it's supposed to have the signature lining. A bullseye on the creed means it's from the outlet and an X on the creed means it's from a store like TJ Maxx or Marshalls. However, markings on the creed are not a guarantee that an item is authentic, since markings can be faked as well.

Thanks again, starrymaz for your answer! Have a great night!:smile1:
 
Hi everyone! Does this look ok? I bought it for mother's day, so I'm hoping it checks out alright. Thanks!
Here's the listing and I've cut and I've included the pics from the listing too.

It's from the Madison line, probably made in 1993. Looks like a Carlisle, about 9x8 inches, made of a finely pebbled leather that's much stiffer than the soft leather Coaches.

The Madisons were their top of the line in the mid-90s. The serial number is from before 1994 when Coach started using the style number as part of the serial number, but this one should be a 4401.


Thanks once more for your expertise
