ok so I don't have a pic but there was a purse I saw at Woodbury last month that the SA said was part of the Kristin Collection. It was a coral/orange color, leather and had gold tone chain links on both sides. It had a boxy shape to it and a zip top.

Any ideas?

I FIGURED IT OUT! Its a Kristin Leather Pleated Satchel 15339 in tea rose. There was only one left and some girl took it!!! :hysteric: I didn't even get to find out how much it was at Woodbury but I'm figuring its rare at an outlet right since it's a Full Priced bag.

Yesterday I purchased the ladybug motif boxy straw tote 4439. The bag is in very good used condition and I want to make sure that it stays that way! I would like to learn more about it, if possible.

I'd be very grateful if one of the authentication experts could check their records or catalogs to try and find more information. The serial number is A05K-4439 so it was made in 2005 and I've read that that it originally sold for $398. You can see pics of the bag in the reveal thread at the link below:

http://forum.purseblog.com/coach/my-first-craigslist-purchase-bag-truly-fit-lady-672236.html

The bag was listed on CL as a "limited edition" and all of the ebay ads also describe it as a "limited edition" but I don't see anything on the creed confirming that. The creed does say that it is made in China of hand-woven straw so that does sound kind of special. How do you define a limited edition and is the description accurate for this bag?

I've just cleaned and conditioned the leather trim and gently brushed the straw and suede and crystal areas, but I've never owned a suede bag - and the suede is applied onto various materials (leather and straw) which makes it a bit tricky to clean and maintain.

Do you know if the appliques are made of suede or nubuck? And what's the difference anyway? I plan to buy a suede brush and eraser but if anyone has other suggestions for keeping these areas clean I would love to hear them!

I really love this new (to me!) bag and I want to make sure that she stays beautiful for a long. long time. Thank you in advance for any information you can provide!

Sometimes sellers use "Limited Edition" for an item that was only sold in select Coach stores, although I've never read any statement by Coach of what it actually means - probably depends on what quadrant the Moon is in on that particular day or what Reed Krakoff read in his tea leaves that morning.

Most of what Coach calls Limited Editions didn't have any special series number (like "Number 50 of 100") on the creed. Yours was called a Ladybug Applique Boxy Tote and although I'm still looking for a catalog that shows it, the matching wristlet #6544 WAS listed as a Limited Edition in the Early Spring 2005 catalog. The Wayback Machine seems to be down but if I think of it I'll try looking for the bag again later.

I get it! It doesn't really matter because she is still special to me, I was just confused by the term, thanks!

Your bag was made in February, 1998. You aren't apt to find too many 13-year old bags on ebay, which is why your search wasn't successful.

I also noticed there was an x on it and I have heard that means its from a tjmax or marshal's or stores like that.

Yes, the X means that it was sent to a discounter.
