Item: Coach Signature beige fabric/leather handbag! EUC!
Listing number: 220509847206
Seller: goodday501

Comments: Just a pre-purchase check, thanks!

I've seen other creeds of this style made in the same year and same plant with the same HANDCRAFTEDIN run-on words on the creed. Maybe the same template was used for the batch? The run-on words on the creed seem to have been fixed on bags of this style made after August 2001.

I'd like to see a closeup of the Coach logo stamp on the clip and the stamp on the leather patch on the side and a closeup of the hangtag. Otherwise, the other details of the bag look ok to me, but I would definitely want to see the additional pictures before bidding, as this style has some close fakes.

Wait for other opinions on this one. I'm not feeling good about the run-on words on the creed.

This is a style that I've seen some really "good" fakes and "superiorcraftsmanship" and "ourcommitment" are often the telltale giveaways.

The only run-on words I see on the creed that the OP posted are HANDCRAFTEDIN. The words SUPERIOR CRAFTSMANSHIP and OUR COMMITMENT have a small space between the words. The creed of the bag in this listing has the same spacing:

Hmm..I've never seen that fob before...the "original packaging" looks weird though...

That's a genuine Duffle Sac keyfob from 1995 or thereabouts - one of a group of four in different styles. The box is also genuine and was first made for the 1995 holiday season.

Comments: It doesn't look like this seller has sold much at all, should this be a concern? It looks to be in great condition though. Does anything else stand out that should be a concern?

Thank you BeenBurned! It seems like you're always on at the same time I am since you help me authenticate my items! :p
You're welcome. Of course, you're always welcome to wait for other opinions too.
 
Thanks Starry! Will ask the seller for other pics.:D

I found this dustbag at a thrift store for 45 cents. It's made out of what feels like muslin, not flannel (I could have sworn I read that some of these bags were not flannel). It looked good to me, and wanted to know if this is a real Coach dustbag. I thought this would be perfect for a small crossbody I have that needs a bag.
