That is what I thought at first, but there are several on a FB group that I think are her “we” that are speculating it was painted. Admittedly that the inside of the flap looked purple and the inside of the bag looked navy gave me pause last night when @CPSE (Thank you) gave me a heads up, but it was authenticated so I didn’t hesitate too long buying it Today.
Happy you got it and hope it gives you much joy that only vintage coach bags can bring! Haha. There’s just something about that shade of vintage coach purple... so easy on the eyes. Partially why I can’t give up my purple sling, even if I feel like Legolas when wearing it.
 
Tentatively (you can never be sure until it arrives with a PM purchase) checking a purple station off my list and cutting up my credit card. It was a tense buy. Another poster alerted me to the bag, but parts of it looked navy so the seller took it off line to get sunlight pics (this one person was giving her a hard time), after the fake Willis I wanted it authenticated, which it was and then I had to keep checking the listing to see if it was reactivated yet, then I made an offer panicked and bought it at full price while the tough time giver was still playing 20 questions with the seller. Assuming she ships it, it is mine
Well I'm very happy YOU got that bag ;). Those purple stations can be a few different shades of purple all in one bag because of the different leathers used in different areas.
 
I *think* that person was noodling for a discount....not to steal that word from you but it made me lol so, I took it. I could be wrong but I thought that person was the hang tag Nazi we encountered here a while back. I'm not sure though.

That bag did not look painted or dyed to me. And it's a very lovely shade of purple!
Yes she is the hangtag nazi. Jus sayn. :coolio:

Oh boy. It'll be okay.
I was doing really good until our 2 week lockdown was extended until April, then I fell off the wagon and stayed off for the remainder of being a shut in. I currently have a list of things arriving so I know when they are all here. Although my most recent ones were 2 pairs of my designated “park” shoes for the Disney trip I had to push off to next year. They are opening, but all the rules and such sound like a pretty miserable experience for the price they charge, so I am waiting.
 
If PM allowed for private messages, after it was authenticated, I would have messaged her to forget the new pics and just make it available she had a serious buyer waiting.

Next time, add it to a Bundle and comment under there. Bundles aren’t private so someone can see your convo if they click to view the seller’s bundles but people rarely do that and its easier to have a side convo without someone chiming in. Its not a PM but its the closest alternative for now
 
I just block people who ask questions with a doubtful tone because they seem like they’d be the most likely to have buyer’s remorse and try to open a bogus case. Ive never had a case opened against me so Im gonna continue to follow that block rule since it seems to be working lol
Honestly, I can't predict who is going to cause problems. Often the buyers who don't make a fuss blindside me with a bogus return request, like the guy who claimed the Coach wallet was fake because it was made in China. He didn't ask any questions ahead of time. The listing stated it was made in China. He just opened the return request not as described and didn't respond to my answer about authenticity so I had to accept the return.
