It looks fine to me. Coach just called it a Backpack, style 529. Here's their website page:

Oh that's great!

And the ad answers a question, I thought perhaps the drawstring was missing those little leather arrowhead "thingies" (I'm sure they have a name.?!) on the ends that are on many of my COACH items with drawstrings. I'm so pleased to know it didn't have them!

It needs some cleaning & conditioning, but otherwise is in pretty OK shape - boy oh boy nice buy for $5!!:smile1:

Thanks so much!

Not a bad deal! Especially when you figure that the original price when it was new would probably be more than 500 dollars in today's money. :D

Both look good.
 
Lot of 4 coach bags various styles... Looks good in pictures but I am a little nervous that these are not authentic and what shape they are in.. Also seller has low feedback and I'm not sure what the seller means by some "wear and a little tear" is there a tear in the bag? I think I will contact the seller! Any info would help!

Only two creed pictures are included. The black and brown Sheridan is authentic. The wallet is probably an authentic Sonoma. The Whitney (the tan bag with the flap) also appears to be authentic. You need to ask the seller for pictures of the creeds of the other two bags in order to get them authenticated.

The bags in the pictures appear to be in good condition. You should ask the seller to clarify if there is any damage to them, and what is meant by "small tears."

I don't think the shipping charge is that much out of line. I bet all those bags will weigh between 8 and 10 pounds, and may require a big enough box that would have an extra surcharge for being oversized.
 
Thanks so much for the info...any idea how old?
You won't believe what comes next...stay tuned (think suede:)...gotta wait til the sun comes up in the morning...YOWZA...it's been a crazy day!
I just saw that you edited your response. As far as age, I don't have a lot of information about this style. Based on the style of creed, it was probably made in the early 90's.

I would at least ask about the tears since only two of those bags have linings - are the linings torn or the leather? If the seller has time to send creed photos that would be best but there isn't a lot of time left in the auction. I can't be sure about the authenticity of the two bags without creed photos but what little I can see of them seems ok if risky.

The seller has one Neutral but it doesn't seem deserved, a buyer complained about handles on a VB bag that were "more worn than she thought" but the seller's pictures clearly show a lot of wear and frayed damaged fabric.

The shipping cost is probably fair considering the weight of the bags.
 
Can someone please authenticate this Coach Leatherware Bag?
Bought at Goodwill today...in crazy, like-new condition!
Approx. 9”w x 9”h x 2.5”d Strap drop 16” from knot
And there is a pocket under the flap...didn't photograph that.
Name? Style #? Age? Any and all info is much appreciated...Thanks in advance, as always!
