Item Coach Madison Hailey Hobo NWT
Listing number :281215283298
Seller name:lifedeal99

I know, I know. I bought it. I thought it was OK because I had another Hailey. But looking at the creed I am not sure.

It does not include country where made.

And the Coach emblem, the whip looks funny. Here are photos:

Thank you.

Newer creeds are missing the country of origin so I don't think that is a problem. I have never seen a MFF Hailey. I wasn't aware they made any Madison in saffron for the outlet, so that has me a little concerned. The shape of the whip is also worrisome. Is it possible to get a clearer picture? Also can you show pictures of the buckles on the sides of the bag and any other areas that show construction details?

I don't see any other problems. It seems to match my Hailey from late 2011. I don't see anything wrong with the seller's other items. I'd feel a lot more comfortable with it if I could see a clearer picture of the horse and carriage, and I found another Hailey with a 2012 factory creed.

I uploaded some more photos. I'm not an expert so hope they are clear enough. Thank you.

I can't get the creed any clearer. The number is J1271-F18633. The buckles on the sides are one piece. The bar is not moveable, nor is the one on the longer crossbody strap.

So would I. I will try to get a clearer pic of the horse and carriage. I have done a lot of web surfing looking at pix and buckles and carriages!

whateve,

OK I added four more photos of the carriage. I think they are clearer.

I have a saffron hailey, I couldn't tell you what year it is but if the color is the same there's a good chance it's around the same age. I know the lining is the same color. I probably can't post pix till tomorrow afternoon but I'll try to get them up if that will help.

I got mine on ebay, btw.

I think it is authentic. Coach seems to have changed the shape of the whip in the horse and carriage sometime in 2012. Although I don't recall seeing a Hailey made for factory, I know they made Lindseys for factory so they could have, and the date of manufacture is consistent with when they would have made them for factory. There is a theory that they may have put factory creeds in old stock in order to sell them at factory stores.

I think it's okay. I was bothered by the whip but it looks like the MFF bags have the hanging thing on the whip.

I couldn't find any listings with good clear straight on pictures of the HAC logo but this seller has two different colors of the bag, both with the same whip:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Madis...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
and
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Tags-Co...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

This one has a slightly clearer picture.

The first two are genuine.

Wait for a photo of the third one's creed.
