Thanks Hyacinth!

I don't see any problems with it but I really don't knoow the Legacy bags.

The leather looks off to me, and my Legacy bags has the multi colored stripe lining, but I could be wrong.

Thank you, Hyacinth and KristenMCD! I appreciate your advice/info. I will keep the outlet price in mind. :okay:

Oh! More good advice! Thank you!

 

[kristinmcd]

You are welcome! IMO, the original Legacy with the striped lining is a MUCH better quality leather and they are all over the Bay or BONANZLE. Hint.

I've never seen one like this (although it is adorable). All of my COACH key fobs have "Made in China" on the back of the tag - I thought it was odd that the photo of the back of this one happened to have the COACH tag flipped. Hmmm - let me know what you ladies think. Thanks!!

Very fake, can you post a link to the listing?

Take a look at the creed patch - this is one of the newer Legacy bags made just for the outlets. The leather and lining are different. There are lots of posts in various forums talking about these bags. I don't know why the seller put the wrong style number in the listing.

Several posters here and at other forums said they've been disappointed in the quality of the leather compared to the older "real" Legacy bags. But as far as I can see, it's still a genuine bag.

Oh yeah, you are right! The leather just does not look as good as my older Legacy. Mine is buttery and soft and just gets softer with use, but even brand new it never looked as stiff as that bag does. I agree you would be better off looking for an older one either on eBay or Bonanzle.

I think it's ok but I wish the seller had photographed the creed patch.

Thanks, that's what I was just thinking, I should have asked. I'll post an update when the bag arrives.

No, it's NOT. I would NOT advise buying anything from that seller, every wallet in their listing both current and Completed is fake.

Thank you so much! I knew something looked odd about it. Beware - this obsession has taken hold and I'll probably be posting more of these. As a matter of fact...is this real?

I would not buy from this seller. There are many red flags here: it's a new seller with no feedback selling highly faked styles of wallets and using stock photos.

Both look ok.

This also? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

2nd one is gone, but would still be curious to know what you think. Thanks!

That is the new Legacy for the outlet bag, NOT the original Legacy. It looks fine, but they are runninr about $200 or less in the outlet.

I'm quoting several responses here.
I just want to say that kristinmcd and Hyacinth are correct, this is the new made-for-outlet Legacy line. I much prefer the older '06 Legacy bags myself. I agree that the quality of the '06 Legacy leather is better compared to these newer bags, but that's to be expected. The Legacy Stripe lining was the big draw in the older Legacy. I guess for those who missed out on the '06 Legacys, this is their chance to purchase a bag that looks quite identical to them, but I'll take my "original" Legacys over the new ones any day.
