The hobo style is an Ergo Mini Satchel from 1998. The Mini is from about the same time give or take a few years, and AFAIK that striped lining was only used at that time in accessories.

I don't recommend the first seller, designhandbag2008. She doesn't show enough pictures to determine authenticity and most of her listings use a copyrighted stock photo as one of the photos. There is NO reason for a seller to use stock photos. Number one, it's unethical to use someone else's work and number 2, if the seller owns a camera, which clearly she does, then she should take her own picture of the front of the bag.

The scarves from the second seller look fine.

That's just one reason we keep telling posters NOT to depend on Google as a source of authenticity information. The last 4 digits in the small tan bag are NOT the style number, they're part of the older style Coach serial numbers and have no relation at all to the style. thanks, that gives another piece to the puzzle :)There are several posts in the Answers to Authenticity Questions thread that explain how to dissect a Coach serial number. ohyes! I've read those posts a few time and have 'em favourited :)

I'd still want to see a better photo of the creed stamp and also clear pics of the sides of the bag since I'm not sure when Coach started making bags with the dowel at the top, She said she's going to send me some tomorrow night but it could be an early version of a Logan Bag, assuming they made that style in the 1980s. Or it might be a Post Pouch. But it's at least 15 years old I figure it's an older bag (like me!) tooand Google in addition to its other faults is almost useless on older bags. It sure is!

Please ask here before depending on Google. I did ask and didn't have much for time so I took the info I learned here, toolhaus and went with my gut.I"ll let you know, if you like and thanks for your knowledgeable time

Hi. I'm still very new here and have a few questions. What is the difference between an outlet bag and the ones from the boutique? Are they of inferior quality? How do I tell where the bag was from? Also, why do some sellers sell bags without dust bags? Where do the sellers from ebay normally purchase their bags from? Thanks for all your help!:D

Hi! Please help me authenticate this wallet. Seller said it was bought in an outlet store in the U.S. Thanks in advance! :smile1:

Item: Coach Slim Envelope wallet
Listing number: 300376336404
Seller: mrs.fields18

Those were at the outlets but the seller's description is wrong and VERY misleading. That's NOT a Slim Envelope Wallet, in fact it's not a full-size wallet at all. Coach calls it a Multi Case, style # 42130, and there are some better photos of the entire wallet here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-COACH-SIGNA...ptZWomen_s_Accessories_UK?hash=item3a55996029

This is really designed just for paper money, credit cards and a checkbook, there's no zippered pocket anywhere for coins.It's much thinner and lighter than a regular wallet so it's OK if you just carry paper money and credit cards, but not if you need a place for coins. The Multi Cases only cost less than half of the price of a regular wallet.
