Hi everyone! This is my first post. I have a Coach bag that was purchased from eBay and I didn't have much luck researching it online. It has no creed or serial number inside, just purple lining and a pocket. I've had it for maybe 5 years. Is it authentic? I don't know anything about it. Can anyone help me out? Thanks so much in advance :)

Sorry, I don't know why they are uploading sideways :tdown:

I'm not sure of the exact name - Signature or Signature Stripe Lozenge Top Handle Pouch? Style number 41423, probably from around 2008.

Hyacinth, thank you so much. I got more information here in one day than I have in several years. With your detective work I found exact pictures of my purse (and different colors) online. This is what it is.
Coach Lozenge Top Handle/Pouch
Jacquard fabric
Colors: Khaki/Mahogany
Style number 41423

Thanks again! :woohoo:

Style number, color, when it came out, retail, etc

Looks like a Garcia but with Madison hardware

I haven't seen it before, and it just doesn't look like the kind of style that would fit in the Madison line. Too much hardware, and the Carriage emblem doesn't look right, it looks like it's a different color than the hardware, and the Coach plaque underneath is a really bad color match for the leather. Bidding on something like that with only one poor photo is NOT a good idea. And if it's a Garcia, I never saw one in that color. The Garcias had Carriage logos, but stamped, not stuck-on emblems. That's not a Garcia turnlock either, it should be flatter with a duller finish.

It looks like it's trying to copy the 12705 Legacy Leather Tote but they just went overboard with the straps and buckles. And the buckle holes in the straps down the front look too small for the buckles. Coach would never make such tiny buckle holes and risk not just damage to the straps, but also a PO'd customer who has to fight with the bag any time she tried to adjust those front straps. I've never seen undersized buckle holes on ANY Coach.

If you're the high bidder on that one, post photos as soon as you get it. Better yet, if you haven't already paid for it, DON'T. Tell the seller you want photos of the inside and especially the creed and serial number.

The seller also sold this "Chanel wallet" with a broken zipper

Do NOT buy from edeime25.

Not only did she list that fake wannabe Coach bag and a fake Chanel wallet, but she has this current fake Coach. No other pictures are needed to know it's not a Coach style.
