I have to say I have the best boyfriend ever...he went to the Goodwill on lunch and came home with this beauty! I have trained him so well on how to spot them. It has a few marks on it but I hope I can work them out! Just making sure it's authentic!
The dimensions are 10.5"W, 8.5"H, 3.5"D! It has an inside zipper pocket, a open pocket under the flap, and an outside pocket.
TIA!

It's a genuine City Bag made in 2000. Tell your BF that he done good! :smile1:

There's no doubt the bag is genuine, maybe they just weren't careful enough matching the texture of the skins. That could be why it has an outlet stamp.

Title: Stuffed Purse - Black Coach Purse w/ Bath & Body Works Goodies
Item number: 2227550
Seller: Lady_Zyanya
Link: http://www.listia.com/auction/2227550-stuffed-purse-black-coach-purse-w-bath

Comments: Bag appears to be fabric however the creed describes a leather bag. The placement of the serial number looks to be rather high in relation to the bottom of the patch.

Is this bag authentic? Thanks.

Thank you all for your help on this... Though I'd love a lime green classic, I'm not a fan of rancid olive oil:throwup: I've only just begun the search, so I'm sure there will be others down the road.

I'm just wondering what caused that dark spot on the right front side?



OMG! The LAST thing you ever want to put on any kind of leather is olive oil! Olive oil is a food product and will turn RANCID.

Someone posted in one of these forums a while back about doing the same dumb thing - wonder if it's the same seller? We followed her listings for a while and while she was weeping and moaning here about how awful her bag looked, and asking for advice and sympathy, she didn't mention ANYTHING about that in her listing - in fact when someone contacted her she denied it was the same bag, after posting pictures of that mess here for everyone to see.

Stay FAR away from that seller whether it's the same one or not. And always ask what products have been used to clean or "condition" a bag.

Oops, did I goof on the link?

From what I can see the creed is K1068-16295 Seller emailed photos of it, they're a bit small for me to read the numbers. How can I post a photo here? The K almost looks like an N.

I think we've seen one or two other Neos with incorrect creeds. It's a lot more likely to be real with a wrong creed than fake since Neos weren't faked much and not very well either. The style and details of the bag are right.

Thank you Hyacinth. She also had 2 other really bad fake Coach bags and I wanted to double check this one.

That's a possibility. I have a Betsey Johnson bag that is pieced together with four pieces of leather and one part has no wrinkles what so ever while the other three pieces have varied degrees of wrinkles. I'm a total perfectionist so it bothers me but I still love that bag to pieces and I got it for a pretty good price.
