Sorry, your links aren't working. If you re-copy them once they've already been posted somewhere, the shortened bits won't show up.

You need to either BUMP the original post using the Quote feature or post a link back to the original post, C&P won't work most of the time. I'll re-post the link:
http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-763164-41.html#post22523786

Give me a few minutes to take a look.

ETA - They all look ok.

Hyacinth,

Thank you for checking on the bags and also for reposting the link. It's good to know that the links shorten up and don't work.
Now I'll know to "bump" the post with the quote feature. I will try it with a "thank you" as I don't want to keep posting the same thing .. I know how annoying that can get for others. ... always something to learn!

Thank you Hyacinth!
:smile1:

Please ask the seller to either post or send a clear readable photo of the creed patch and serial number. The outside seems ok but we need a creed photo to be sure.

Thanks Hyacinth! I'll get that to you as soon as possible. IF she sends it... if it's fake, she may not! Also, is the fact that there is no dust bag for a "New with Tags" bag a red flag??

No, never. Sometimes full price bags don't have one, Outlet bags almost never have one, and sometimes the seller just decides to keep it.

I heard back from the seller today and here is the info and measurements on the bag.
"Bag is roughly 11.5 x 6 x 3". Strap drop is 15".
No bk outside pocket. "

Does this help identify the bag style? Thanks again for for your help. :-)

It's probably the Convertible Clutch. Sounds like it has the shorter 36-inch strap or maybe even a replacement, so it probably can't be worn cross-body. Date is probably mid-80s.

Many many thanks ms Hyacinth. Fortunately, i have not paid for it. I asked the seller about the wrong tag of em op pat leah so she called her niece who is living in the US. She feedbacks that the bag came from the coach outlet store. Admittedly i was convinced esp that it came with the plastic, dustbag, white box and coach paperbag. But i had doubts when i held the fabric that's why i submitted it here for authentication. Thanks again ms Hyacinth.

I don't think it did. There is no letter "F" in front of the style number on the price tag like there should be if the bag was sent from the full-price store to the Factory outlet, they always make a new price tag and add that letter. There's no price markdown hand-written on the price tag like outlet items would have, and there's no "F" in front of the style number on the creed patch like there would be if the bag had been made just for the outlet. So once again, what the seller is telling you does NOT fit the facts in front of us.

I think the Swingpack may be genuine - PLEASE wait for someone else to confirm that - but the handbag definitely is not. The badly cut creed and the clear plastic on the straps alone are just things that Coach simply does NOT do.
