Title: Coach purse and matching wallet!! - $60 (Chandler)
Seller: local
Link: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/clo/2942465028.html

The bag seems to be ok but I can't help with the wallet.

BTW, did you ask the seller for more details about exactly what needs cleaning and how badly? Even though it's Craigslist, don't waste your time looking at something that's too grungy or stained to get clean.

Comments: Is this caviar leather? Thanks in advance

No, it's a Sheridan Roswell Satchel and the Sheridans are just "pebbled".

Coach has never actually used the term "caviar leather" since Chanel has pretty much made that term their own property but the only Coaches to have caviar-style leather were the Madisons.

Oh ok, that's what I thought but the phrase on the creed "specially treated to maintain a new appearance over time" was what made me think it was caviar. Still very nice. Thanks for authenticating.

I've seen S codes on a few bags from the mid-90s with US creeds but most of those seemed to have other authenticity problems. I'm pretty sure the Chinese S plant may have been making a few travel and business bags maybe as early as late 1995 -early 1996.

Handbags with S codes marked as US-made are still questionable, at least for me. Remember, many plant code histories are still speculation until we can confirm that a bag we're 100 percent sure is genuine has those year and country codes.

thanks for the info. that is very interesting. i have seen a few classic styles (like an old willis) where everything seemes okay but the letter "S" always throws me off and i get the feeling that it shouldn't be there.
 
Gracious Seniorita :D
You're welcome.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Thank you for your response! I've added pictures of my own bag.

The bag and wallet in the listing seem to be okay though the pictures are awful!

This is my first time with an authentication request. I want to know what bag this is please!

Item: Coach bag, Made in New York City
Link: http://coachbagrehab.blogspot.com/2012/04/new-project.html
The link is to my own blog on rehabbing, and all the photos are mine. I am usually pretty good at figuring out most of my bags on my own, but as I start buying older bags, I am running out of information sources! Thank you so much in advance!!
 
Item: Fetching COACH Jack Russell Terrier Mens Italian SILK Pocket Square Handkerchief

Listing number: 220971731801

Seller: beardsleywellington

Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/220971731801?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_770wt_948

Comments: This was a BIN item and I pounced on it. The seller has great feedback and the "made in Italy" sounded right since the leather JRT fob was an Italian item as well. I've always wondered if Coach made a JRT scarf but could never find that info. This is the first one I've ever seen, and - if it's legit - I am wondering if it truly was sold as a men's handkerchief or if the seller just sees it as such since they deal in men's items.

I don't recognize the scarf but that doesn't mean anything. There's nothing that screams fake on it (and fake Coach scarves do scream fake). When you receive it, please post pictures of both sides of the brown tag/label that is attached to it.

Nice find, I think.
 
Item: Navy Willis 9927 (Costa Rica, 2001)
Seller: Savers $35

Comments: Please authenticate, thank you; let me know if you need more pictures.

I’ve probably spent too much on this bag but it was the first navy Willis I’ve come across and it is in very good shape. Unfortunately it reeks of cigarettes, but I am hoping that a good long bath will take care of that! Thanks again!
