Hi ladies, I recently joined a fb group that allows people to buy/sell Coach bags. The problems are really showing as there are those who are claiming they can "spot a fake" a mile away to others who are giving misled advice as to how they are certain someone else's bag is a fake or not. I've posted that those who are not sure of their bag come over here to have it authenticated but so far admin has removed my comments. I messaged the group admin and suggested she come over here and see what you do. I hope this is ok. Of course there are those who "worked for Coach" so they know here too! . . . Eye roll!!!
 
Please authenticate! Thanks!

Item: EXQUISITE RARE VTG LG COACH DRK PUMPKIN FRONT POUCHETTE HAND BAG TOTE USA BEAUTY
Listing number: 320972460636
Seller: onlybeautifulhandbagss
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EXQUISITE-R...636?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4abb73125c
Comments: I know that this appears to be a Watermelon tote, which is one of my favorite vintage bags. But, since the seller does not have the best feedback, I'm a bit nervous on the authenticity of this bag. Also, what year would this Watermelon tote be from and would the color be burnt orange? Thanks so much for your help!!

The bag is an authentic Watermelon Tote and is probably from the later 1970's judging by the "mark".

I would call it burnt orange, but colors show up differently on different monitors.

COACH VINTAGE BONNIE CASHIN BLUE LEATHER KISS LOCK CHANGE TOTE, PURSE

Item number: 320975174327

Seller: getitgotit-gone89

Thank you!

I own one of those and I have an email from the Cashin Foundation that states Bonnie Cashin did NOT design that bag. It's a Watermelon Tote from probably the later 1970's.

It looks to me like it's missing the leather tab on the zipper pull or can I just not see it?
 
Hello
Recently picked up this bag at a resale and am wondering about
it's authenticity. The model number on the creed 9718.
I had a hard time taking a picture of the creed, I hope
it's readable. Does the K1D indicate it was made in Oct 1991?
Does anyone know what the style name is?

Thanks for your help

There doesn't seem to be a pic of the zipper pull. Do you think it's Coach though? I do like the bag. Thanks so much :smile1:

Yes, it's an authentic Coach Watermelon Tote. You can see the small "Coach" stamp on the photo with the inner pocket pulled out.

I enlarged the picture below.
