Hello, I have been searching the web for about two hours on how to identify the bag I have. It is my mother's, given to her in the early 2000s from a friend she had a falling out with. She has allowed me to sell it as I am taking off work for a long period of time for a college program and need any extra cash I can get. It is still in the box with slight damage to the box, and it has the card (care card?) still in it as well as the paper stuff but there is no serial number on it. Here are pictures below, under the spoiler since there are a lot of pictures:

I would like to know, if it is possible, what this purse is and how much I might be able to sell it for. (Like new, never been used -- only damage is to the box.) It seems like it is from 2001 seeing that that's the copyright year dated in the little booklet.

It's authentic and called Hamptons cosmetic pouch. The style number is 7143.

I couldn't find the original price and we really can't suggest a value since prices are set by the market - condition, supply and demand, etc.

I ran into a NYC, saddle flap in a thrift shop, pre turn lock, with a snap that was an add on.

I wish there was a certain way to tell, if some bags have details (like the snaps), that were never part of the original production and added later, so nobody (buyer or seller) is left with the doubt, because as seen and discussed here a couple times, Coach had sold those prototypes that left people wondering, real or fake, unique or add on.

Most people like me, that collect some, use some and sell some, are more concerned with having the real thing, than to find one worth for the Archive, but I guess we will have to keep guessing, LOL

In the future, please include measurements if the bag's serial number doesn't include the style number.

It looks like a Jackson Bucket style 9912 from around 1992.

Thank you so much! it's so hard to measure it, I wasn't sure how to do it - the height is like 9-10 inches (it depends on how much I put into it) and the bottom like from side to side is about 7.5ish Thank you again! I couldn't figure it out without the style number on the creed :)

Coach's "official" measurements can be confusing and are often inconsistent. The catalog description for that bag shows 9 x 9 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches, so apparently they're measuring the 9" Length measurement across the top of the bag. The Height measurement would be the 9 3/4 inch one.
