Pics of Kristin Crossbody Decorated and Loaded!

Here's a few visual aids to help you differentiate the FP deletes and the MFF bags.

I borrowed the first pic below from an ebay auction. It shows the "F" at the start of the second set of number indicating "Factory" so it is a MFF bag.

The second pic shows an FP delete from the boutique store. There is no "F" at the start of the second set of numbers and no "bullet" on the creed.

The third pic is the creed of an FP delete sold at the outlet. There is no "F" at the start of the second set of numbers but there is a "bullet" stamp on the creed.

And at the link below you will find Happybag's photo of the "white dot" on a MFF accessory or small bag.

Hope this helps!


Thank you! This was soooo helpful to me. I have bought 3 Coach bags in the last 5 weeks. Two from the factory outlet , a black duffle bag which upon just looking does, indeed, have the 'F' after the dash. The second one from the factory, a large Kristin Hobo in a kind of beige color, does not have an 'F'. So I guess the Kristin overstock and a better buy, $199. I'm betting that if you buy their more expensive bags from the otlet or factory, it will not be a factory bag.

The third bag was bought from a seller on Amazon.com and is authentic Coach( Madison Maggie in that beautiful persimmon color) for almost FP and free shipping and no tax.

That's usually true but not always! Occassionally you get lucky and find an FP delete bargain at the outlet. This usually happens if someone left a beautiful boutique bag NWT sitting in their closet unused for a few years and then decides to return it. I got my XL Copper Zoe that way, it was $500 new but I bought it for $116! :D

You need to be an informed buyer and know what you are looking at to get the best bags at the best prices.

Glad that I could help and congratulations on your new bags!

And thanks to you, Ms Katev, I have turned into exactly that, an informed buyer, lol. Thanks again.
 
I apologize for bumping this thread but I just wanted to add a Coach stock pic of the bag while it is still available in the drill-down, because these bags are currently at the outlet for $66.

ETA: Oops, the one I found is a different style. I picked up 47396 last weekend for $58 but it has an outside pocket and zipper. They also had champagne and another color (might have been gunmetal but just remember there was a third color).

Very cute pouch and a great buy!
 
I've been eyeing this Kristin crossbody for some time now. I noticed there are two versions - one with a smooth leather flap and another with a woven flap. Just wondering if anyone out there can tell me what the differences are or why its different? Looks like the smooth flap Kristin has multiple credit card slots (which I love about it) but with the Woven (I love this design more) it only has one inside pocket. Hmm is there a combination of a Woven one with multiple card slots out there? If so please do tell a model number so I can be on the hunt :D

Thanks in advance!
