We're doing you a favor to offer our opinions, but please don't get impatient when you don't get an answer right away. This isn't a job, we don't get any compensation.
If someone reads the post and isn't sure enough to give a definitive answer regarding authenticity, we don't respond. We wait and let someone else with more expertise in the specific product voice an opinion.
Personally, I'm not familiar enough with that style. I've never seen it but that doesn't necessarily mean it's not made.
All this seller's listings have a prop in the pictures that concerns me, though. Personally, I don't feel comfortable about the seller, whether the bag in question is authentic or not. JMHO.
I agree. There are several problems with that listing and I would NOT recommend bidding.
And for the second time today, I'll back up what the other experienced posters have said. Demanding our immediate attention or complaining when you don't get it is rude and immature. We're not here to provide immediate gratification, we're here to analyze and then give opinions. And OUR lives and families and jobs and schooling and responsibilites and commitments come before yours. If someone can't live with that, sorry, but that's the way it is.
And in case it's not clear, this isn't the local deli or fast food shop and we don't give you a numbered ticket when you walk in, and we don't always answer questions in the order that they're posted. Some may get answered within a few minutes and some may take a lot longer. That's the way it is, and the order in which questions are answered is completely up to the individual members who are doing the answering and giving up their own personal time to do it.
If you need an opinion quickly because an auction is almost over, please say so politely at the top of your post and we'll TRY to answer. If there aren't enough photos, we probably won't be able to answer, so try and get the photos of the item that we usually need to see before posting here if possible. And if you miss an auction, it's not the end of the world, the same style will show up again sooner or later.
If that's not good enough, then try asking at Ebay's Shoes and Purses forum and see what kind of answers you get, and how long it takes to get them.

I'm semi-familiar with the style, but I never recall that bag in particular, nor does the seller provide you with a clear picture of the creed (and I've never seen one of the silica packets in ANY of my Coach items).
