*should the J8Y prefix be a concern?

Many thanks!

J8Y- should always be a concern. Not only have I seen several fakes with that number (there's at least one currently listed) but there's one small detail on the red bag that worries me a bit. I'd have to call it Questionable or just say I can't be 100 percent sure about it.

The second one's ok.

The Court Bag may not be real. The serial number looks way off, the stamping isn't right and the digits are too close together and seem to overlap which shouldn't have been possible with Coach's old stamping system. The hardware looks off too especially the D rings on the strap.

It looks like a genuine City Bag as long as the measurements match.

Thank you so much! What are the measurements of a city bag?

Hi,

Is this bag authentic?

I'm learning how to read the creeds!

Thanks!

It looks ok, although the seller has a photo of a Sheridan bag and hangtag mixed in with this one.

 

[CoachCatcher45]

About 11x7 inches.

Everything measures up! Can you tell me how old it is and the original price?

Late 80s or early 1990s, between $180 and maybe $205 depending on age.

GlitterAndSpice,

I am by no means a Coach "expert", but from a quick look this bag looks good to me.

The style number matches up, and it follows the "rule of C's".

A quick check you can do is to look at the bag and make sure the same patches are in the same positions on the front and back - i.e. if a particular patch is on the bottom left corner on the front of the bag, it should be on the bottom left of the back of the bag.

Enjoy!
