Hi all!!

Just passing by and saw comments on the red trail bag. Ooo la la, that's gorgeous, Whateve!!! That red is perfect!!

Hyacinth, don't want to promote the seller, but the catalogues on DVD are pretty awesome (she says sheepishly). If there was more reference material available I wouldn't have bothered.

Thanks!
Aw, now you make me regret passing up those catalogues!

You could try contacting the seller and asking if there is another one available. After all, he burns them on DVD himself so he's not likely to run out of inventory.

And you could pay as much for a single paper catalog from the '80s or '90s as you would for the entire DVD. I really hate to be recommending anything from a seller with his track record, but unfortunately it's the only game in town.

Good idea!

Yea, the dream of finding a cheap box of catalogues at a tag sale are pretty slim. : (
 
Whateve's (GORGEOUS!) red trail bag (style 9955) is not the same as Coach's Creel bag (style 4909). Among other things, the creel bag doesn't have a top handle.

The 4909 creel bag (shown here) was so named because it (sort of?) resembles a real fisherman's "creel" - I've included a photo of a "real" wicker creel for comparison.
Theres a fishing creel in the Sonoma range too in both full grain #4909 and Nubuc #4937. There was a nubuc in rose pink listed a month or so ago. I kick myself for not getting it. That red Trail Bag of Whateve's is the best though!
 
Here's the link http://******/1gs6oqc

There are 2 left. I wrestled with getting them, but they really are great. I even found a picture of BT drawstring bag from the '80s that I coveted so much : D

Ps so much for me not wanting to promote the seller.

But wouldn't the seller just make more?? (As far as having 2 left)

(oops, I see someone has pointed this out)
 
Probably would make more. Who knows if he would make them sooner or later. I would assume he has all the images saved and can burn at his leisure.....but who knows.
Maybe he'll just burn until he gets busted. I wonder what the penalty would be if Coach decided to press charges? Would there be a fine for each copy or one big hefty one? It's a risky business selling in such a public venue. The record is there forever.

It's tempting to buy a copy though....

I can't imagine the penalty would be light. It would be wonderful if coach had references for collectors. Too bad coach doesn't produce DVDs of their old catalogues. I've used the wayback machine several times and it really hurts my brain. Sometimes I can find/see what I'm looking for and other times forget about it.
 
Is this a drawstring sac from the (late) '80s? Authentic? (I hope)

If authentic does it look rehabable?

Cool bag! I'd rehab it......if it's real. Sorry, I'm not a pro but my gut would say it's authentic.
Someone in the know will surely let you know for sure.

I feel good about it too. If it is authentic it is the same style bag that had me drooling at the coach store window. I was in my late teens and couldn't justify spending over a hundred bucks on a purse. I miss it....even though I never had it...lol!! If that makes any sense.
 
Hi everyone. I'm burning the midnight oil tonight.
