The creed looks okay.

Geez, I just don't get why a seller capable of taking a good picture would even want to use stock and stolen pictures.

Actual pictures give a seller so much more credibility.

And along with the credibility issue, using someone else's pictures, even the manufaturer's or pictures found on Google is against Ebay Rules:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/image-text.html

"Images and text policy

Policy overview

eBay members are not allowed to use images—including photos and other pictures—or text they didn't create themselves. Exceptions to this policy would be if they are authorized to do so by the owner, its agent, or the law...

What are the guidelines?

If you're not using pictures or text from the eBay product catalog, you should use your own when creating a listing. If you're using someone else's photos and text, make sure you're authorized to do so...

Not allowed
You're not allowed to use the following if you're not authorized to do so by the owner, its agent, or the law:

  • Photos and text from other eBay users
  • Photos and text copied from websites
  • Scans from catalogs or advertisements...
Additional information
Copyright law protects original works of authorship—which may include certain pictures or text—from being used or copied without authorization from the person or company that owns the copyright, its agent, or the law. You can find helpful information about copyright law at www.copyright.gov "


Really, how much clearer could they say it?

the serial number on the inside on the credo is K05Q-6314

id like to know how the condition is of this purse and any history like name and yr and if its real. i know the pics arent the best, sry, i could only get pics onto here through uplaoding from my phone to facebook and then saving them to my computer. need to know anything else let me know.

i bought it for $34 at a year round indoor flea market where u can sell ur old purses to this lady and she resells them. she had LV, D&B, coach and many more.

did i get screwed or did i find a good deal? i kno ur not suppost to ask what the original price was but how would i find out then? ive tried looking up the item on my own but even when i called coach to authenticate they couldnt find it...

The bag is authentic and is some type of soho signature flap bag from 2005.

As for condition, you're the one with the bag and can tell whether it's in good condition or not.

For value, you can compare what you paid to the sold listings for the same style. (I didn't open the listings, but at least one of the sold bags ($10.99) is fake. Others seem okay):
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=coach+6314&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc

There's no reason that you can't ask the original price. (What we usually can't tell you is the "value," since that's a matter of how hard the item is to find, the condition, the color, the quantity and availability of the same style, etc.)

Unless someone has the original tag or can find an old webpage or catalog showing the price, it would be pretty hard and time consuming. Similar bags made around the same time sold for between $258 and $298.

This isn't about your bag but just a heads-up about the general Forum rules - they include

"Posting in English only. Please refrain from excessive text message shorthand posting (or text speak)."

If you watch ebay (and other site) listings, you might find a seller with a listing that shows the tag. It's not uncommon to find listings for NWT items that were purchased years ago and never used.
