Thank you Hyacinth! It does not have the strap included so I went for this one instead:

http://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/156546407/vintage-coach-willis-bag-coach-9927-dark

She sent me the creed pic separately:

I hope you can access it - if not, it is made in the US and #D0C-9927.

I know i should have waited before pressing "buy" but the last bag I wanted disappeared right after I posted it here. I could cancel if it is wonky.

Thank you again to Hyacinth, Whateve and all the authenticators! You gals are awesome!

Hey, that was NOT meant as a slap! Your expertise with vintage and BC bags is always welcome here, I wish we saw more of you.. The more opinions we can gather, the better.

If anything about my comments sounded offensive, I apologise, they certainly were NOT meant to be.

1- Buying white bags is like hop-scotching through a minefield. Always make sure the seller has a 100 percent satisfaction return policy and no restocking fees and that they stand behind it. So many older white bags have been recolored, repainted, and in some infamous cases, touched up with white shoe polish. There are at least three marks on the strap where an owner tried to punch more buckle holes but never finished but the round marks are still there. Other than that it seems ok in the pictures.

2- looks ok

3- looks ok

Thank you so much! That's very good advice on buying a white bag. I wouldn't have thought about the touch ups!

Title: Coach Chocolate Brown Leather Legacy West Backpack 9827 w Tag Made in USA
Item number: 400562759916
Seller: johnny-sells aka johnnyconlisk on Bonz.
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Choco...916?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item5d4366a8ec

Comments: May I have an opinion on this backpack? Was the style made in 1995? The lining doesn't seem right and the creed looks wonky.

(The seller was previously discussed here): http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-250.html#post25133595 and http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-250.html#post25133836

Item: 21281
Listing number:181207464460
Seller: cakbeg
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-MADIS...460?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item2a30ce7a0c
Comments: Just wanted to see if someone could authenticate for me before I decide to place a bid. I really want this bag and it's at the price I could get it at the outlets (if I can find it) but includes the wallet. I am skeptical though especially since it is preowned and only had the one picture up.

Thank you as always!

The picture is the seller's own but it's impossible to authenticate the listing with just one picture.
