If it's from the same place as the one sunshinedaydream6123kim sold to some poor sucker two days ago for 97 bucks, it's fake.

Can anyone verify or supply a style number? The hangtag and creed both are raising red flags.

Would just like to have these authenticated and re ID before I go ahead and clean the poor things up. I've picked them up at various thrift shops as well as on ebay.

Red basic?

thanks, that one she sold before was so obvious I'm surprised ebay didn't remove it. I will remember to never buy from this seller, but I'm still wondering if Coach made a bag that looked like that. It sort of looks like a Parker.

ETA - Regarding seller cheapandaffordable:

I'm not comfortable with the integrity of this seller. Many of her Coach listings state: "Buyers should know I have sent out all my Coach bags and purses to Coach for repair and/or authentication checks. ALL have checked back to be AUTHENTIC COACH and no one should have any issues in regards to this as I paid a 20$ fee per purse just to make sure I sell you the real deal."

AFAIK, Coach no longer authenticates so I find it hard to believe that she's being honest in her statements.

Thanks BB. Even if Coach still authenticated bags like you said, I find it hard to believe she would also pay the shipping too. That would make for a pretty pricey listing.

There have been several posts here and in other threads stating that Coach no longer has an authentication service. I don't believe her statement either although the bags look ok just based on a quick glance at the Gallery photos.

Unknown, the color looks ivory in the pictures but it's a very light tan

From both posts:

The first 2 are both Basic Bags. If the 3rd is 10x7x3 it's a Classic Shoulder bag - the original Coach Bag.

We need the measurements of the off-white one, thanks! And a description of what sort of compartments and pockets it has.

Thank you Hyancinth.

The off white
Length: 9''
Height: 5-1/4''
Width: 1.5''
Strap Drop: 16-1/4''

it has the single zippered pocket all along the inside back.

The off-white one really has me confused. The only one in that size range I can find that only has one smaller inside pocket is the Dinky Bag but those didn't have detatchable straps. But there are a lot of years I don't have records or catalogs for.

Maybe someone else has a name for it.

I asked for the creed number and she said there wasn't one. Obviously I should have done this first before bothering you. That's definite proof it is counterfeit, right? Thanks for all your help.

Absolutely! With the exception of one GINORMOUS tote they made for the outlets a year or two ago, anything bigger than a Swingpack or Pouch made in the last 30 years should always have a creed and serial number.
