I know very little about newer Coach. Wait for Hyacinth or one of the other ladies to look at the bag.
I'm posting your question in the format that is requested by the authenticators in Post #1 of this thread.

Somehow I've missed the information about so many fakes beginning with J8Y ....grrrrr....but I already owned these from ages ago so had to check anyway.

OK, I'll try this- sorryStill getting this:
This item might have been deleted, expired, or you might not have permission to access it. Contact the owner of this item for more information.
I don't like how far off the center of the pocket section the creed stamp is. A lot of those J8*- serial numbers are going to be questionable like this one, I just don't have other examples to compare it to so unless there's another red flag it's going to be a "don't know".
Thank you. I do see- after looking at several bags online- why this is a conundrum. I've found another auction that -if there aren't other red flags, it too has an off-center creed but it isn't a J8Y. Maybe if you have a moment you can see if this is another mystery bag, or a fake, to help me with this learning curve. This is a big help to me. I've spent hours tonight re-reading all kinds of old information in this thread and others, hoping to no longer be fooled with all these questionable bags in the future. Thanks so much.

Was hoping someone could take a look at the purse I bought at the thrift store today for $5. The creed stamp is very light and hard to make out, the serial is J8Y-9134 Thanks!
