I believe this is from the Fall Special Edition 2004

The serial number is: C04U-9747

Someone asked about that same style on the ebay purse board last week. I don't think I'm allowed to post a link but the title of the thread was:
Is this COACH Authentic?

And the answer is no, it's not authentic. It's scary because the pattern and the creed are nearly perfect (as in "perfect" according to Coach "rules) but unfortunately, the style isn't legit, the serial number doesn't match the wristlet and the item is fake. (The centering and alignment of the pattern isn't perfect, but that's not completely surprising on a fake. But it's "better" than some!)

This is what style 9747 should look like:

Hi Hyacinth! I was hoping you'd be around this evening. There is a creed photo but you have to scroll down and click on the 5th page of photos I think. Here it is a direct link to that photo page for you (top right photo), does it look authentic from the creed? Any idea if it's a Ranch?

if you go back to the original page link (http://www.ebay.com/itm/130764104608?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649) and scroll down to the photos and click on PAGE 5, you will see the creed photo there.

Thanks, I wish sellers wouldn't make you dig through multiple pages to get photos. But at least the photos are there.

The bag looks ok. And yes, it's probably a Ranch Bag which means it's from around 1990, NOT the 1970s as the seller claims.

Thanks for your input on both bags, I really appreciate it. I also really appreciate that you guys work the boards on the weekends, evenings, you name it, to provide us with your wisdom, knowledge and feedback. Thanks for all that you do for us. If I could send you flowers, I would!

Item: Coach Envelope/Sleeve (???)
Seller: N/A

I purchased this yesterday, I'm not sure what it is, or whether it's real - there's no creed, but the leather felt right, the zipper is YKK, and the color red matched a vintage bag I have, so I took a chance. It almost looks like the pocket they would sew into a vintage bag, but there is no indications that it was removed from one.

There are more pictures at the photobucket

Thanks for all suggestions!
