The bag seems okay but I just want to comment that the seller had a fake Coach cosmetic pouch removed yesterday as well as another fake Coach in the past. She doesn't verify her items before listing.

As always, thanks for all the info.

Looks OK to me.

It's fake. The creed is also crooked. The piping around the edge of the pocket looks too thin and the top of the pocket next to the zipper looks unfinished.

I have several with the same creed in my files. I think it was just a plant mistake. I think the bag is authentic.

I’m not interested in this bag but clicked on it bc it seemed like a good price for a borough. I was a bit confused by the sewn in tag. The other details looks ok to me, even after comparing to my borough. What’s with that tag?

Item: large borough

That's the third one I've come across, all Stewardesses, two of the three with outlet stamps and one of those with what looks like stamped "FS" stamps, not just the white ink kind. They all seem ok although I didn't save pics of the earlier bags, just the creeds. I wonder if Coach got hit with an unexpected demand for the re-issued Stew and just threw the production order to whatever plant was able to make them in a hurry without fiddling around with changing creed stamps?

First 3 thumbnails and pics are the current bag, last 2 are the earlier ones.

I purchased this item It's listed as a Miranda Hampton. Can you authenticate, and give a general release date? Thanks for your help.

It appears authentic. It was made in 2007. I don't think it was a limited edition. It was called something like Hamptons Vintage Miranda Satchel.

Hi, I’m new to this site but it was highly recommended to me. Please forgive me if I’ve made mistakes while posting this. Well, here it goes. I have this bag that seems to be very well made but not sure if it’s coach since it doesn’t have signature lining, or the coach symbol on outside of bag. The serial number is E1473-09951. I can post additional pictures if needed, thank you!

To clarify, this is the tag I was asking about!


ETA: here is another one with that tag. Sorry if this is silly - to me the tag looks weird and it’s just made me curious.
