I looked up this style no. and can't find anything, but this bag really seems like the real thing. The quality of the leather and material is very good. Please let me know if this bag is real!

Thank you!!

It's authentic. Since it's from 2002, you aren't likely to find a lot of listings. It's a Hamptons multi color striped (market?) tote.

I've seen a number of them out there - are there a couple that you would recommend?

For what it's worth - if you have an Android or iOs phone or device, Myibidder is pretty good & free, they also have a browser (cloud ) based interface to keep track/make bids that you can also access from any device (desktop, laptop, notebook, tablet, mac, pc etc ) that uses a browser. Very handy! I was stuck sick in bed recently and was able to get some major auction bargains with my smartphone :)

Hello, I am looking for a coach taft bag. Is this one on Ebay authentic? Item: 281108168385 the seller is: 2muchpackingtape the link is: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Taft-...385?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item41735a3ec1 there is no picture of the creed shown. I emailed the seller, she said she wasn't able to get a clear photo but the creed number was: M1D 9980 Thanks

There are more reasons we need to see the creed than just knowing the serial number, and no highly-faked style like a Taft should ever be authenticated without that photo. It may be genuine but without that, there's no way to be sure.

Thanks, I really don't want to buy a fake so I think I'll just keep looking. I have learned alot reading this forum.

You might want to do a google search or a search of TPF for references to the seller 2muchpackingtape and her many ID's. Here's just one post: http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-694619-629.html#post21571248

Hi - I bought this beautiful Coach bag in a large lot so i'll just attach some pictures for you. Please help authenticate. I think it's a City Bag from 1995 - is that right? Thanks so much.

Hi. .. just received this almost too nice mahogany court. It's in perfect condition. Only concern is the suede bottom. I've had many court bags and never one with a suede bottom. .. always the continuation of the back panel onto the bottom. The creeds a little sloppy on the "coach" but it looks, feels, smells right! Please take a look and give me your thoughts. .. Thanks!

There are at least 2 others currently listed that were also made before 1994 that also have suede there. I don't think it's a problem but anyone who also has one from before 1994 with an all-number serial number is welcome to comment.
