I just came across this listing and I have never seen one like it before. The front clasp reminds me of a Laurel but it is definitely a satchel. Thanks for any info you can provide.

It's called a Hudson Bag and is from the same period, around 1991. Style number 4113.

I have not reported them but perhaps I should. Sometimes it is accidental (or so they say) but I think most of the time it is deliberate.

Try to report them if you can. It's definitely against Ebay rules.

I hope Hyacinth has a catalog page to show us. I would guess it is a Lexington flap based on the number.

Correct. The Lexingtons are often faked, but this one looks ok.

Thank you Whateve and Hyacinth. Its a handsome bag. It looks like it could go for a good price. Seller only ships through GSP - it's so frustrating! I would much rather bid more than pay higher shipping costs than are necessary.

I just have a question. Did the original flap (shoulder) bags come in white? There is one out there that is in pristine condition in white. The creed appears to match the bag. I've attached a couple of photos. Thanks!

Yes. As far as I can tell, white was discontinued around the time that serial numbers were introduced, and probably replaced with bone. White was reintroduced for the Lightweights collection.

To me it looks like it's been dyed or shoe-polished, that's why the deepest parts of the creed stamping are dark, the back of the strap is a lot darker than the front.

Maybe I'm wrong but it's TOO white, and the surface of the leather looks wrong. JMO, I'm a naturally suspicious person.

Hi! I bought three leather purses off Ebay and I was wondering if someone could give information about them? I want to try to rehab a few older purses and decided to buy these but I am newer to Coach and I have no idea on names and ages of them. I tried to look up the id number online and very little came up. I appreciate any info. Thanks!
