Thanks for the info! ::D I have read the information...just wanted to double check! ::D

There are several posts in the Answers To Authenticity Questions thread that explains this, please take the time to look them over:

A lot of common questions are answered in that thread, and anyone who buys Coach should probably take the time to read that thread at least once. And keep in mind that the most recent answers are the ones that are most up to date. Coach doesn't have many "rules" and the few that turn up can change without notice. What was true of Coaches ten, five or even one year ago may not be true today.

SMALLER BAGS like Pouches (such as this one), Swingpacks, Demis, etc, may OR may not have creeds and the creeds may OR may not have serial numbers. Coach makes that decision. And again, there are no "rules".

I don't see anything wrong with the Pouch in the listing. It's probably between 3 to 5 years old and looks perfectly genuine.
 
Thank you for the quick reply on the saddle purse. The stitching and everything looks the same. It has a strip on the inside of the bag that covers the interior side of the magnetic snap. This strap was glued on from top to bottom instead of sewn on. It looks really good. It is actually held best on by the fact that the edge of this strip is lined up under the standard trim piece that is sewn on. I forgot to mention that the green leather on the inside is white along the edges near some of the seams when you pull on it. Did they dye the leather after putting a purse together? I've seen it in a lot of purses and always thought it meant it wasn't Coach. I only assumed Coach would stain the leather before putting a purse together. You guys would definitely know best because so many of you have such WONDERFUL collections and have seen so many! And do you think it is true that sometimes Coach has their name indented instead of raised. I've read in so many places that it has to be raised. What do you think? Thanks again!

I agree with post 529 from Been Burned. Descriptions, no matter how good, can't prove anything is real - we need to see photos.

Also please try to ignore whatever you've read that says "Coach ALWAYS does this-or-that" - Coach does what they darned well please, and there are almost NO Rules about how a Coach is made, stamped, sewn, or numbered that's valid on ALL or even MOST Coach bags. Any "Guides" that spew out a string of "Rules" are almost always as useless as you-know-whats on a bull and should never be used as a basis to authenticate any Coach items.
 
It looks ok, though a clearer picture of the creed would help. You can ask the seller to try taking the creed picture using the macro feature (indicated by the tulip/flower icon) on her camera to get a clearer shot.

I tried that, she said she tried taking several & that was the best she got... she did say the numbers are H0773-11062 if that throws up any red flags?
Thanks:D

This bag is fake and so are the other Coach bags this seller has sold.

Someone who knows UGGs should check out the seller's sold UGGs.

EDITED TO ADD: Ugh! This seller's Photobucket album makes me sick.

Here's a picture from the PB album that wasn't included in the auction. Maybe because it would have made it too obvious.

"Hello,

Could someone help identify and authenticate this bag? It has already been purchased, wasn't expensive, but I am still curious about its style and authenticity.

It's a simple, small, cross-shoulder, black leather bag approximately 7" x 7" x 2" at the bottom. Model inside is listed as G30-6610.

I don't know the name. The tag said SIG STR SHLDR BAG 3H00033049 and had a handwritten price of $209.99 (Like an outlet markdown). I'm not naive enough to believe the tag and think it's either from another bag or an outright fake. However, I'd like to know about the bag itself. Is it genuine? Does anyone know the style? Any help would be appreciated."
Thanks Hyacinth! Just to clarify, do you believe the bag is authentic? Can I call Coach with the model number to get a style?

It looks genuine. When I believe something is fake, I say so. :D

Hopefully Coach should still have the style number on file.
 
I would like to know if this purse is Authentic. I found it at Goodwill. I do not know the name given to this style. I would appreciate any information you could give me. The stamped No. on the inside of the purse in case you can read it from the picture is 967-4836.

Thanks,
Patricia
