What Drilldown are you putting it in? The old Drilldown doesn't exist any more. And please DON'T use Google, it's useless for most Coaches especially older ones.
There's nothing wrong with the bag in the listing, it's a Whitney Mini Hobo from 1999.

I used a link a found in earlier posts, where you had to replace the numbers at the end - it didn't show up on the official site...
Thanks for confirming the bag - happy day
Have a great rest of the week-end, and thanks again for the help!!!
Asking for authentication/identification and age for 2 bags:
Drawstring Flap
Purchased in 2009 at Goodwill in Florida
No. 826-8747
Nylon/Leather Tote
Purchased in 2008 at Goodwill in Florida
No. MO42-1835
Didn't pay much for either one, thought I could re-dye or remove stains. Will ask Rehabbers for help.
Pics attached. Thanks in advance for any and all info.
I love this forum!

If you're the winner, I'm glad the bag is authentic but the seller has highly questionable current Prada, completed Burb and Gucci in feedback listings.I used a link a found in earlier posts, where you had to replace the numbers at the end - it didn't show up on the official site...

The seller also ripped someone off for this fake Coach:

1- Probably a Soho Shoulder Pouch, style 4025, from between 1988 to 1991.
2- Twill or canvas Tote, maybe from the Hamptons line, I don't have any information on it but it looks genuine. Made in 2004.

Thanks - not just for these authentications, but the wealth of info you've posted on AT! I'm on page 315 and getting smarter all the time. More authentications coming...Thanks again!
1- We really need to actually see a photo of the creed stamp and serial number. The stamp itself is one of the things used to determine authenticity. If the seller can add a photo to the listing or send you a photo we can take another look.
2- looks genuine, made in 1997
3- appears to be genuine BUT the seller's Negative and Neutral Feedbacks at Toolhaus.org are a LONG string of "not as described", more worn than usual, undisclosed heavy smoke smells, etc. I personally would NOT consider buying from them.

Also the serial number in the Description is NOT the same as the serial number in the photos, one is from a 7 year-old purse and the other from an 18 year-old one.
Is this bag real? I don't have much information about it - suppose to be a Brown Patch Coach Leather Satchel
Please refer to post number One in this thread for the information we need. Also we usually need more photos like the front, back and inside including any creed patch or stamp but in this case we can probably do without.
If you've bid on it, cancel your bid. If you bought it, take or send it back and get a full refund. If you bought but haven't paid yet, DON'T.
The stitches are sloppy, the patches are fake, NOT made out of real Coach fabric, and at least one is noticably crooked. The strap is also completely wrong.
Thanks. It was a bag I was going to purchase. Unforuately this was the only information I had. Thank you so much for your time...I will not be purchasing the bag. 
I did a bid first ask questions later (bad I know) But I thought these looked good and the sellers accept returns.
here's the first

I got taken in by the two colors of hardware.
Thank you, authenticators.

I'm glad you didn't go through and already own this item. The strap was the dead giveaway and the first thing that caught my eye.Thanks. It was a bag I was going to purchase. Unforuately this was the only information I had. Thank you so much for your time...I will not be purchasing the bag.
