The bag you've asked about is okay.

You are correct about laur100's history. What's also notable is that her listings that were on ebay in the past (but reported and removed) didn't stop her from selling them on Etsy. (Unfortunately, I haven't had good experiences in reporting fakes to Etsy or to their sellers and seeing either Etsy remove the listings. Sometimes, an honorable seller will end her listing if notified that an item is counterfeit.)

Sometimes when a seller knows they can get away with selling a fake on one site but not on another, they will list on the site where they can sell it but not on the site where they'll get caught.

For example, she sold this about a month ago on Etsy. I believe it was removed from ebay.

ETA: I would recommend extreme caution if buying from Laur100 on etsy or from laur100 on ebay.
^^^ That's a post from an authentication request made in December in which I warned about using caution when buying from LAUR100.

It's not just on etsy and ebay. The seller also sells on Poshmark and seems to list items there that she can't sell on ebay and in fact admitting it's fake!

Poshmark seller laur100
Whether Poshmark will remove the fake or not is doubtful (which is why I don't recommend nor authenticate Poshmark), it's worth a try to report.

I guess she doesn't realize that selling fakes is ILLEGAL whether she admits it or not! From the listing: "Although this bag definitely looks like the Coach Stewardess Bag, it is not."

Beware, sellers who mix fakes and authentic items are more dangerous than those who never sell a genuine Coach. Buyers tend to blindly trust sellers who they think have the real deal.

Ugh! ETA -- I realized that the fake stewardess was already sold. Maybe the buyer will see this post and demand a refund.

^^^^^ Post from a few days ago. ^^^^^

This is a CURRENT listing from Ebay. It's another fake stewardess being listed by laur100 (2869

LOL! This is from the description:
"Please note: The eyelets are the strap have turned silver rather the gold plated. Since I haven't seen a vintage Stewardess with silver eyelets and this is the correct strap, I'm attributing this to the aging process."
