Item: Legacy canteen mini ?
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181168495736
Seller: oliviadancer10

Comments: Can you tell if this is authentic with the photos provided?
I had asked seller for some more photos, she added the pix of hangtag, paper tag and COACH imprint. I was expecting to see a creed patch like my bag like this has - (older, original) but now I am thinking maybe the newer ones had no creed patches? Am looking for one with silver hardware, so am hoping this one is real - but the fuzzy photos aren't helping my confidence.

The pictures make it difficult to authenticate. I do know that these smaller bags don't have creeds. From what I can see, there aren't any problems.

There are about a dozen listed on Ebay with better pictures. It's a recent remake, not one of the original Canteen Bags. From the colors available it's probably just from the last year or so, but you probably knew that. It doesn't look as if this style has a creed stamp, but the black one is probably genuine.

I don't see any problems either.

Omg.. did you have to show me all those :p !!!! Now I want the UV one!!

Thanks so much Hyacinth & WhatEve..
The seller probably thinks I'm nuts because I told her to please check again for the creed patch "mine has one!"
:o
Apparently I've become one of =those= eBayers in my old age!

I'd go for one of the colors over the black one too, especially since it's a small bag - you want it to POP. :cool:

Can I get an opinion on this handle backpack?

VINTAGE COACH BROWN LEATHER BUCKET BACKPACK BAG TOTE # 9992
Seller: formation
Item: 221248630460
http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-COACH-BROWN-LEATHER-BUCKET-BACKPACK-BAG-TOTE-9992-/221248630460
Comment: Turnlock looks crooked and hardware on handle is wrong.

It's another one of those "J" month code bags. Other H plant codes I've seen from the same year have different spacing both in the serial number and in the creed itself. And like you said, the turnlock area has a few red flags too. DON'T bid on it.

Not sure if this is metalic over leather or just leather. I am not sure of which color of blue it is..I believe it to be authentic....

thx

It looks authentic to me too. I believe the color was called cobalt. Other listings described it as shimmery, but this one looks flat except for the creed. Maybe the shine wore off? The drilldown picture looks a little shiny but not sparkly.

Hi all. I was wondering if I could have someone take a look at a bag I found. It's really pretty but I don't know much about it.

Item: vintage Coach Bonnie Cashin double kiss lock bag
Seller: laurenlavan

Other than the hangtag, which is newer than the bag, I don't see any indication that this is Coach. Ask the seller for pictures of any Coach imprint or tag anywhere on the bag.

I don't think #2 is a Coach bag. The others appear authentic.

Thank You. I remember the second item was listed as a coach bag, when I placed a bid on it. It must have been reported, and has been removed.

It wasn't Coach but the seller (mistakenly or not) used "Coach" as the brand in the item specifics, thus the bag came up in a Coach search. Honest mistake or not, it was KWS (keyword spamming) and not allowed.

She has relisted it, now with "unbranded" in the item specifics:

You're welcome. I don't think the seller meant to list it as a Coach bag. She probably just created the listing from a previous one that was Coach and forgot to change the brand name.
