Hmm, interesting. This is another seller who seems to have current season items that are missing the hangtags. See this post:

Did your friend's bag come with the hangtag and luggage tag?

Some made for Factory Outlet items will have an F before the serial number, but I'm not sure if this is from the outlet. While certain details of the bag look good, the creed looks strange to me. Please wait for more opinions.

The P at the end of the number means it was a Pilot bag, a pre-production model released into some stores for a very limited time to see how it would sell. I'm not familiar with what kind of numbering system they used on the Pilot bags - or, Coach being Coach, if they had any system at all - but the details on the bag look good although I'd like to see a closeup of the inside of the price tag just to see what codes they used.

The seller's Feedback dated March 1st would make me steer clear of their listings. I don't think the creed patch color is correct for that color combination, is it?

There was also a post here about 2 weeks ago where a seller had dozens of new bags but none had price tags or even hangtags. I'd stay well away from those sellers. If they're selling bags as new they should come with the same tags a new bag comes with from the store. The Coach hangtag is an integral part of every Coach bag and its absence not only devalues the bag but makes me think that there's a reason to be suspicious of where the seller is getting the bags. I don't trust ANY of these sellers, sorry.

This is authentic and it's the Natural color, not Whiskey. The Natural colored bags have white creeds and the Whiskey ones have brown creeds. Many times sellers mistake the Natural for Whiskey, but you can tell that it's Natural because it has a white creed.

Thank you so much. My money is pending in Paypal and I wrote to her asking me to read the hangtag for me. She has not answered. I know the whiskey is B4/wY and Natural is B4/NA. My money will clear on Monday and I do not want to put it through to her account if it is misrepresented. So I want to wait the day and if she says the tag says whiskeyWY and I know from several sources including Jax that it is not a Whiskey I will just hope I do not ruin my 100% feedback when I cancel the transaction. I asked if it was a 2006 whiskey and she said yes it is, but i prefer the 2007 darker one, so I think she knew at that time. I just do not know what to write her since I never did anything like cancel a transaction. This is the only bag my daughter wants is a whiskey for her birthday. Thanks!!!:tup:
