Are there any pictures of the creed stamp that's usually stamped on the inside pocket? We can't authenticate effectively without that. Was there any information like measurements or a serial number in the listing?

Check the first post in this thread for an explanation of the information we need to authenticate.

Hello Hyacinth, There are no photos of the creed. I simply took a chance and paid very little for it. Based on what I see, it is authentic and I think it is older than an Ashville. The construction on this one seems less polished than the Ashville. I checked because there is an Ashville posted for sale right now.
 
Hi all! Is it possible for someone to authenticate either or both of these ebay listings?

1. http://goo.gl/IQ9S6A

2. http://goo.gl/VKQJ9x

Thanks in advance! :flowers:

ps. I shortened the url b/c they both were massively long.

The forum software automatically shortens URLs.

We need readable photos of the creed and serial number for the first one. Also if it has silver hardware, it was made in the very late 1990s at the earliest, so it's not really vintage.

The second is genuine, but again not quite vintage since it's from 2000.
 
Maybe I should ask her if the bag has been dyed? LOL...


Well this was her exact message to me. I'm thinking that I should actually report her. I've blocked a few of the words with symbols. I only said to her "I'm trying to help you avoid having a buyer return this or open a case against you. You should say that this bag has possibly been dyed to protect yourself" then this craziness...Thoughts?

Dear sacsmagnifiques1941,

Nowhere does my listing say "undyed" so i am not lying to anyone in any way. I am not a coach seller. I'm a single mom selling anything of value i have to take care of myself and my toddler before we end up homeless. F**k you and your threats you spawn of satan. STOP HARASSING ME OR I WILL REPORT YOU TO EBAY FOR VIOLATION OF THEIR COMMUNICATION TERMS! Leave me alone! My 1 darn purse isnt going to hurt your profits. I dont care how many purses you have and sell. Stop trying to intimate people like you are ebay purse mafia or something you psycho!

I added this a few minutes ago:
The style could be a Laurel Bag but we'd need measurements, and we'd still need to see the creed and serial number to authenticate

The Laurel was from around 1992 and would have measured about 11x8.
 
We really can't authenticate effectively without a creed photo. Was there any information like measurements or a serial number in the listing? It's also time-consuming trying to even identify a bag without some hint as to when it was made.

Hello again,

Here is what the seller just sent to me. :D

"Thank you for purchasing myebay item and paying so quickly. I will mail the bag out first thing on Mondayvia USPS Priority and will send you the tracking number. I don't use the ebayshipping feature so I do it all manually. The patch number is 0686-118. BTW,there is another one currently on ebay listed at over $200. I can't rememberthe seller but you can maybe search it under clam shell."
 
:roflmfao: I think it's only fair to know right? She's honest and forthcoming surely. But I'm the spawn of Satan, so what do I know!?

Did you notice that she just revised her description? She tap-dances past the issue even better than Shirley Temple.

"MY PIX AND DESCRIPTION ARE CLEARL ENOUGH THAT IT IS EVIDENT THE EXTERIOR IS BLACK AND THE INTERIOR IS BROWN. THIS BAG WAS VERIFIED AS AUTHENTIC I'm PERSON AT A COACH STORE HERE IN RICHMOND, VA. THE SHAMELESS HARASSMENT I AM ENDURING BY THE EBAY COACH BAG "MAFIA" IS GETTING RIDICULOUS AND NEEDS TO STOP! "

Maybe we should make her an offer she can't refuse? :graucho:
