Hi all!
Can I get some thoughts on this bag?
It's hard to measure, very soft, I get 11" x 11" x 4".
(Don't mind my stained up work table - I don't bother to cover it anymore
when I do work on it, just causes more mess and spills!)

Tried to get a clear shot of the creed but it is faded/worn down.
Every word and number is legible and there are no misspellings.
The serial# is 983-7705
After I get your opinion I have another issue with this bag.....lol.
Thank you!

It looks fine. It looks like a Lightweights Shoulder Pouch.

Wow! A HERMES scarf! OOH-LA-LA! that is impressive! Do you still have it? They are CRAZY Valuable & wicked Expensive!! My brother bought one for my mom when he was in Paris in the 1980s, she never wore it because it had one of those Hunting Hawks on it( She has this thing about Birds ~due to the Alfred Hitchcock movie) anyway, she found it again when she was moving house.., 23 years later and never worn... I was able to sell it for 600 bucks. Unfortunately she didnt have the original box. A.HERMES gift box goes for 30-40 bucks.
...gone are the days that any of our Florida thrift stores..at least the ones near my home let anything slip through..It would be worth it for me to drive over to the west coast to get the deals that TPF member(cant remember her name) keeps finding.. A Brand new goodwill 1 mile away, and not one leather bag..all plastic..and I live in the same county as Tiger Woods, Celine Dion, near Palm Beach and the ***** people .I wonder where the rich folk dump their goodies?? Maybe they don't throw anything away..they just build more closets, or another mansion to hold all their stuff!! LOL

Sounds like I live in the same Florida county that you do, and I've never found a thing at Goodwill either. Just lots of beat up plastic overpriced junk! :)

I thought it was okay, thank you!
NOWWWWW Here's the problem,
the left side strap - the side where the buckle is, was sewn on backwards, so that the buckle is facing inwards. You can also see the seaming where it is sewn to the hardware/strap attachment
I'm including pics of both ends so you can see what I mean.
What do you think of this?

THE 4th and 5th photos are of the "good" side of the strap

Goodwill in Palm Beach has a "Boutique" in the downtown. Nice items and more than nice prices. If I want to pay $100 for a average well used leather Coach I can look at Ebay and run it past everyone here for half the price. So I think I know where Tiger Woods' stuff could end up.

Oh, and I keep checking at the Goodwills. No Coaches, no Dooneys, no Fossils. One dirty Tignanello.

Can you check the rings to see if they are solid? If there is a break in them you can work the strap off and then work it back on the right way.

Could someone please authenticate this "strapless" MFF Coach bag?
From Goodwill...shame about the strap, but the milled/pebbled leather is beautiful...and it was cheap!
Approx. 10.5”w x 5”h x 2.5”d
Have no idea of name or style, just know it was made in 2006. All info is appreciated...Thanks in advance!
