I have 4 purses that I'm deciding on for my girlfriend but before I get too deep in deliberations, I wanted to know what you guys think as far as their authenticity? They don't have as many pics as I would like and I've petitioned two of the sellers for more pictures:

#1 looks good, pending a clear, close-up picture of the creed.

#2 looks good, but a clearer picture of the creed would help.

#4 looks good.

I'm not sure about #3 though. Wait for someone else for that one.

#3 is a 1996 Madison "Sutton". It looks correct to me BUT I would definitely ask for a picture of the creed to be sure. They should have posted pictures of all angles of the bag, plus the creed and a good photo of the inside.

The old Madison line was quite expensive but I'm not sure the seller will get the price they are asking, especially with the lack of photos.

If you look at this auction you can see the beautiful leather that they used on those bags.

Vintage Coach gurus please!!!! Can you all authenticate a really old “ Bonnie” bag? I bought it because it looked familiar, but I don't see a creed? Does this model precede the creed? I bought it, but have not paid yet.
Thanks

It's authentic and it's another "adaptation" of the Bonnie Cashin "Skinny Tote". It has a pre-creed Coach mark that I can see in the photo of the inside of the bag.

I've shown a picture of the mark that is on the bag in your auction AND a picture of an actual Bonnie Cashin Skinny Tote.

The old Coach mark is simply the word "Coach". You can easily see the differences in the 2 bags, especially in the different handles and in the way the bag is put together.
