Here's another listing from hungergames2010 that should be looked at.

I thought it was a typo when I saw her description of the serial number as JED-9072, but it does look like JED:

Am I reading correctly?

I noticed that one too. Not only is the year code invalid, but the font doesn't match what the D plant was using at the time.

Thanks. I wanted to double check.

hungergames2010 is another seller who sells an awful lot of Coach items and should be doing a bit more homework.

Hi, I was just checking back a couple of pages and it looks like designerdesire never got an answer to her two posts ( 2525 and 2573) regarding a newer bag. Wasn't sure if there is someone who can answer for the newer styles. Thanks.

Before you shop for any more vintage Coach bags, you really need to read and Bookmark the six Salearea Guides posted at Ebay. They give a lot of information about Coach in general and older styles in particiular, including WHY you can't find any information on that style when you search for the serial number. I'll give you a hint - because the style number isn't in the serial number. Read the Guides to find out why.

And no one can ever remember every single bag Coach has made, even the official Coach Archivist himself. Don't depend on someone's memories to tell you if something's real. As I said the first time I answered your question, it's a Carlyle Bag from the early 1990s. Please remember to check for answers to your questions before re-asking them. And please check the forum Rules too, they ask that members not send Private Messages to other members asking about authenticity but to ask in the forum instead.

Venting.... Don't you just love how a seller knows ALL about a bag they are listing "Authentic, Beautiful, Excellent, Coach" blah blah blah... UNTIL you call them out for selling a fake or dyed/painted bag etc. Then suddenly they know nothing about the bag...they were selling for their girl friend etc !!! :busted
