Wow, what a great thread this is! I came across it while investigating my newly purchased ( used) bag.
I am not 100% it is authentic because I can not find this model in teal anywhere else. Online, I only see whiskey, black, ivory and pink.

I know it's a Legacy and think it is style # 12868. Please advise, thanks in advance.

No, it's a style 13371, just like the creed shows. Not all colors show up online, and there's nothing wrong with it. Try searching Ebay for the number instead of the Wayback or Google.

For some reason, this color is really rare. This is the factory version. I have the Legacy shoulder bag (the one with only one front pocket) in the same color but with the Legacy striped lining. When I was researching it, I could find almost no information about it.

Just commenting on the listing that's described as "NWOT." If you look at the seller's other listings, right before listing this bag, she listed an Etienne Aigner bag that IS new without tags.

I think she just did a "sell similar" and forgot to change her description.

2- definitely not new! That interior has years of wear and tear on it. Same with the outside, especially the back. I'm wondering if it's been re-dyed or recolored, and what they used. It has streaks of different shades all over the back, and the front almost looks like some kind of oil was used on it. It's the original vintage version of the Rambler Bag.

Thanks for looking at it and pointing out that the leather may have been altered. I sent seller a message with questions, but never heard back. I was ready to go high but am glad I did not pursue this. Thanks again!

Hello Ladies! I have a couple of items I'd like you to look at. First up is here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-with-ta...104?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item41716d2730

I'm not interested in this bag, just curious if it's real....and I will report it if its not.

First off comes the fact that it's got plastic on the handles....has Coach started doing this? Next is plastic on the hardware and not taped with foam sheets as usual. Is this a new thing with Coach too? And the shoulder strap wrapped in plastic?

The bag looks authentic from what I can tell, but all that plastic is throwing me off.

Next is this person and the 999999 Coach bags.....and nevermind these. I found another thread with these on there and it had a link about this seller.
Thanks in advance for your help!

They've got 2 cut-out style bags and plus a Linsey woven that are all 999999 bags. These are pilot bags? Is there any way to find out if actually going to sell them? I really like that particular laser cut look.

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. The last item I got from JAX wasn't wrapped in plastic. The factory orders come in plastic bags, but every order I have gotten has had paper or foam on the handles. That isn't enough to report it for. It could have been wrapped by someone else.

2. I don't recommend buying from that seller. She has a lot of questionable bags. With the 99999 style number, there is no way to tell if they are authentic. I think it is worrying that the two Lindseys she has show 2009 production dates, when the Lindsey wasn't introduced until at least 2011, if I remember correctly.

ETA: Although I can't predict what Coach will do, I doubt you will see these in production. Coach made laser cut bags similar to these last year and I don't think they will repeat themselves. Now they are making laser cut bags for the factory.

I bought all three of these at the outlet recently. They appear authentic. The seller should show the back of the keyfobs.

Thanks Whateve - I'll check and see if the seller can post pics.

They're authentic.

Note that the candy keychain has been faked, with some fakes being fairly close.

There are some very close fakes of that bag and this one is one of them. The plastic is a huge red flag and the tag is for a different color bag. It looks like the seller used a possibly genuine tag (and photoshopped?) the color information from the tag.

I wouldn't touch any listings from seller 1006patton with a 10-foot pole.
