They don't to my knowledge sell replacement buckles. Odd that the buckle wore down but leather looks good. How long has he had the belt?

Fellow Coachies, this is for you. Website for ordering four free Covid at home tests:
How are items packaged coming from the Coach UK website? Do bags come boxed or only with dust bags? Do they automatically do any kind of gift packaging? Thanks!
I just sent back a black Coach Cassie 19 I ordered online. I had watched several Youtube reviews and I was sooo convinced it would be the perfect everyday bag for me, but now that I tried it on it was clearly too small. I had ordered it with a cute See by Chloé Hana mini bag keychain and I realised I wouldn't even be able to fit the keychain and my MJ wallet comfortably in, let alone a cosmetics pouch. I don't know how I failed to understand the sizing (or the size of all the crap I'm carrying) so completely! This got me thinking that even the regular Cassie would likely be a tad too small.
I've been really into Coach lately so it's a bummer it didn't work out 'cause the bag was still lovely. I'm quite pleased with myself for not keeping it though, as it wouldn't have served the purpose I had intended it for. Also funny how I was super impressed with how carefully packaged the bag arrived and then the next moment I was sweating and cursing while trying to wrap everything back
Now I need to re-calibrate my Coach desires and come up with another easy cross body (I think?) choice to lust after, good thing this forum is full of inspiration!
Sorry I am just catching up. Do you think you would like the large Tabby Shoulder bag? It's bigger and still has top handle and crossbody strap option and doesn't stick out. Only thing is Coach discontinued the style so you have to hunt the resale sites.
Yes! Great suggestion, and I've been keeping an eye out for the Tabby shoulder bags! Shape wise I prefer the Soft Tabby but I've only seen it in this smooth soft leather (as the name suggests I guess
) that seems rather delicate for everyday use. The more boxy Tabby 26 comes in a more sturdy, grainy leather I prefer, but it's not as spacious as the Soft one. I'm in no hurry though so I don't mind waiting for something that feels just right.Hi Coachies!!!
I'm starting a new chat thread for all generic chatter, not necessarily Coach related. This is our own little place to chit chat about anything on our minds, and hopefully we can get to know each other a little better.
Let the discussions begin!!
Hi everyone! I’m a new user so I couldn’t start my own thread but I’ve been dying to ask this question. I got a Coach Willis 18 bag recently and it has two stamps on it, on the left side of the bag near the top. One is the X with the 1941 around it, and the one below it looks a bit like a puzzle piece. Does anyone else have these little stamps on their Willis 18? Or know what they mean? Pic included
The "puzzle piece" is a generic sign used globally to tell something is real leather, often found on shoes and other leather goods. 1941 is of course the year Couch was founded, I'm no expert on their collections but I think Willis is part of their Coach Originals collection.

If you look at the shape of the "puzzle piece," you'll notice that it's the shape of the hide when removed from the cow.
Hi you have to tick the box for gift packaging on checkout for the black box and brown ribbon if you don’t they just come in a brown postal box
Thank you for taking the time to reply!
Ahh, I see. I don't remember seeing an option for gift packaging.
Not that I really need any more boxes floating around here 
but I am a sucker for packaging! Thanks again, I'll know for next time.
I swear They are making it harder to find the gift box option too - Im sure they remove it at sale timeThank you for taking the time to reply!
Ahh, I see. I don't remember seeing an option for gift packaging.
I could swear it wasn't there! I purchased two items but only one of them was a sale item. Didn't see an option for gift wrap or any packaging options at all.
There was a time (probably 10+ years ago) that they'd gift wrap your outlet purchases with tissue, ribbon and boxes.
I've just had a look at one of the emails I received to confirm my order, and it says:
I assume that means I'm not getting any packaging! And I assume that also means it wasn't an option at checkout. Seems like a strange way of doing things... buy online, but take your order to a store to claim a free gift box.
