The wallet seems good to me.

Re price, we can't quote on "deals," but if you search completed listings for the style number and/or description, you can see what they've been listed and sold for. (ETA: Well, that won't work because there aren't any others of this style.) IMO, it's a fair price.

Thank you! I think I'll just hold out for a sale on a legacy medium or large wristlet

Re shopnagain: That crooked plaque on the bag concerns me as does the seemingly crooked plaque on the wallet in the same listing.

As for the feedback comments that were removed, if you'll notice, they're from sellers and since sellers can't leave contradictory feedback (positive feedback with a negative comment), shopnagain was able to get them removed.

When that many sellers have issues with a buyer, I usually add that buyer to my BBL.

ETA: I've BBL'ed this buyer-seller. It looks like she buys for resale, picks apart her purchases for partials, then flips the item to make more money.

I checked the removed feedback from the seller with the wristlet. Way too many comments about smoke smells. and then the comments made when responding are not professional at all.

Hi! I won a bid last night and would like to get authenticated if possible. I know you need a good photo of the creed to fully authenticate so I will take a clear photo of the creed when it arrives and post. I requested a photo but is was so grainy - could barely read it....the seller says it is a NYC bag serial# 191-5244.......hoping it is authentic and what the name of the bag is. Thanks so much!

item#:281067251171

seller: melody16061108

addendum - it appears that Tetondeb and I bought two bags from the same seller and she (the seller) gave me the wrong serial# so you may have to disregard that serial# and I will post a pic of the creed when I receive it. If you know the name of the bag, that would be most helpful. :)

Debi - I bid on that bag and I swear, when I lost the bid, I thought, "I wonder if Debi bid on it?" It is your type of bag!!! Okay, I bought the other bag which is a few posts down and I requested creed pics for BOTH bags but I could barely read them so I requested her to type out the serial# for MY bag and she told me the same# (191-5244).....ugghh...probably a mistake....I'll have to see what my bag looks like when I receive it...

So the seller is giving out the same serial number for both bags?

The satchel is probably genuine but if there's a question about the serial number I'll have to wait until you both get your bags and compare and post the numbers. Be sure to refer back to the numbers or URLs of your original posts when you get the bags.

With Ebay allowing 12 free photos there's no reason why the seller couldn't have taken decent measurments and a full set of photos. Good luck!

Item: VTG COACH MEDIUM RED LEATHER SADDLE FLAP BAG PURSE MADE NEW YORK CITY USA
Listing number: 251235429524
Seller: worldwidepcs3070

Comments: I'm looking to build a vintage coach collection, and this red bag would be a great addition. Everything seems to be in order, but can anyone confirm this is authentic?

From the measurements it's probably a Convertible Clutch style 9635 from the mid-1980s, and it looks genuine.

Well..I won the wristlet from her. I messaged before it was over asking if their items were from a smoke free environment.She said yes.Thought I would get outbid...didnt happen. I still paid like a good buyer and we will see how it turns out. $30.25 shipped. Thats almost half off retail before taxes.I guess for that price I could live with it or ask for a partial.
