1- both the Willis and the coin pouch keyfob look ok. However someone has added extra holes to the strap on the Willis - note where the strap is buckled - but at least it doesn't look as if they cut the strap like some owners do.

2- the second one seems ok but is about 3 years away from actually being "vintage".

3- we always recommend that buyers check a seller's full Feedback record at Toolhaus.org - ESPECIALLY for this seller station_85 and others like him/her. 16 Neutrals and 12 Negatives in the last 12 months is nothing to be proud of. I have personal experience with this seller going back years and I would NEVER recommend them. In fact I won't even authenticate their items because all too often it seems like what's in their photos doesn't look like what you eventually receive, or the item's condition is Not As Described.

In fact their record of Negatives and Neutrals is so long that the Toolhaus page actually times out before the full list can be loaded. This truncated page only goes back to 2010, my own experience goes back at least 3 or 4 more years, so they've been building up this record for a very long time:

I bought this bag an estate sale for $8.00 The all numerical numbers on the creed patch threw me off but I'd read a post by Hyancith that some earlier bags had these type creeds. The leather is thick, heavy and chewy and I'm pretty sure it's authentic...at least I hope so.







Measurements are 10 1/2 long, 7" tall, 2" deep and the double strap is 40" long, excluding the brass dog leash clips.

There is an open leather pocket inside. TIA for your help. I already love this bag and look forward to using it.

Am I correct in thinking that this little Demi is part of the Bleecker line in 2000? I figure that the zip bags were Bleecker Demi Zips, so this must be a Bleecker Demi Turnlock, correct?

I don't think so. The Bleeckers mostly had style numbers starting with 93xx, a band of leather around the bottom, and no turnlocks. The Bleecker Demi Zip was style 9311.

Coach just calls it a Demi Turnlock

I read your question in the other thread. Normally, these all number creeds had a seven numbers separated by a dash, in the format of xxx-xxxx or xxxx-xxx, but occasionally the stamper screwed up and you ended up with an 8 digit creed.
