I don't have a good feeling about these. The style numbers and measurements are wrong. I realize that there aren't any creed pictures.

The pictures aren't that clear, but what I can tell from them, they look like they could possibly be real.

The inside color is throwing me too, I've never seen a black bag with that interior color but I don't have any vintage Station Bags either. Is there any sign that the bag may have been re-dyed?

I honestly see nothing that indicates re-dying, color is consistent on the leather throughout (had my eagle eyed husband look it over also) but some indications that it may be some sort of fading on the inside, inside of compartment FI looks darker - tho still brown. Another poster mentioned possibly mold - it's not been wet that I can tell, no bad smells, no stiffness - really is in nice shape - the brownish interior is not something I've seen before - Tho - I do have an old well used NYC era bag that has some weirdness going on with the leather colors inside & out.

For what its worth - I added a better creed shot - taken outdoors (hurrah for the sun!).

Also I added shots of it with another older Station Bag that was with this lot, a Brown one, also the Brown ones creed, Brownie needs auth-ing too if you don't mind me tossing her into the mix.

Coach does not appear on every single snap, and a lot of zippers do have YKK

SANDMAIL, please check to see if the poster's question has already been answered before replying. This forum can get very busy and we don't want to bury it with multiple answers for the same question that say the same thing, especially when an experienced authenticator has already answered the question.

Also, before you jump into answering questions about authenticity, maybe you could tell us about your experience with Coach? No offfense meant, but we discourage posters from taking any action about a questioned or suspected fake based on an answer by a new member with a very low post count and no history of authenticating Coach items, mistakes have been made in the past and we want to make sure that this forum maintains its credibility. TIA!

While I know you mean well, I believe that you may be giving false and incorrect information to the poster as well as lurkers who may see your post and think the bag is authentic.

Without further and clearer pictures it's absolutely impossible to even say they could possibly be authentic and as pointed out by the poster who asked the question, the style numbers are bogus. If I were a gambling gal, I'd say the bags are fake.

Comments: Hi, I honestly did not know that Coach sold on Ebay can be fake. I bidded on it and won and am afraid it might be a fake.

Hi, the posting on ebay is no longer there, but I do know that coach did make that pattern.

??? The listing is still there and an opinion was posted following the addtional posting of the creed.
