Thanks, E!

I believe my Manor is Taupe. The mod shot I posted might be a better representation of the color.

From what I can find, I believe the Manor Bag comes in: Navy, Black, British Tan, Mahogany, Red, Bottle Green, Taupe, Bone.

Looking forward to seeing future reveals, E & MB!
Thank you for the color info TBO! I loooove the taupe color of your Manor, so I'm definitely going to be trying to hunt down one of my own now lol.

My Crosby bag should be here Monday or Tuesday and I can't wait! I'm hoping she doesn't need much more than a good dunk, re-shaping, and conditioning since that's all I have experience with so far when it comes to rehabbing.
 
Saturday Satchel photo. Photo of my Sonoma Satchel Natural Grain No. 4921 in black (left) and Gramercy North/South Satchel No. 7004 in black (right). Both were authenticated in the AT thread & I sincerely am thankful for the help. I think I I'm going to need to dunk both as the lining is dirty. I have attached the catalog photos I've saved for each and I was wondering - do ya'll think they stuff the purses for the catalog photos? The reason I'm wondering is because both purses when empty, sink a little and don't stand up completely on their own. I understand it could be do to age and storage, but I'm wondering if they originally when new would have had more structure on their own (my photos have them stuffed with the shipping tissue and towels otherwise you really wouldn't get to see the shape). I'm going to search the rehab thread for washing Sonoma bags (since it has a lining) and I hope there is a suggestion/hope for reshaping crooked/slanted handles. I also may do a board search for inserts I could maybe buy to put in the bags to help them stand a bit.

Catalog photos always show the bag stuffed, at least for larger handbag styles. It's a good idea to do the same thing when selling pre-owned bags online. It looks more professional and makes the bag look more like the catalog photos.
 
Thank you. At least she posted a photo with the creed this time; even though, it's blurry as all get out. I couldn't get her to give me a copy even during the dispute process.

I can read it and it's a Made in Korea fake.

Serial numbers in a 3+2 format are almost always Korean fakes. The creed is a lot more "worn down" than the serial number, I bet the seller either filed down the creed or Photoshopped the creed picture. The wonky serial number is unmistakable though.

Hi everyone!

I'm hoping to ask about the Pocket Purse (style No. 9755).

Any opinion about how much stuff it holds?

I've been searching for information about this style and what fits, but haven't found a lot of info.

(I don't need it to fit a tonne of stuff; mostly just the things I bring when I go for lunch near my office.)

P.S. If anyone happens to have a photo of what fits inside your Pocket Purse (or if you have a link to something like that), that'd be cool.

=)

I just bought a pocket purse. I could fit my wallet, pack of tissues, AirPods, phone, keys, mints, and sunglasses without a case. There was wiggle room for maaaaaybe some super small things like a thin 3x5 notebook, chapstick/lipgloss, etc. For me (because I live in NYC and we seem to travel with a thousand things from sun up to sun down), this won't be an every day purse. It would work for a night out or something like that.

I had one once. You can't fit a full sized long wallet. I could fit a card case, coin purse, sunglasses, key and phone.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a taupe bag. It's hard to tell from pictures, how would you describe the difference between taupe and mahogany? Now I'm not even sure what color my bag is, ha ha! I'll have to go find those posts with the color comparisons now. Thank you for the list of colors, I was wondering about that. I'd like to find a red one in good condition someday.

I'm not sure if this answers or helps. I found this hangtag photo from a previous forum thread. For the classic colors, taupe really just looks like a less dark/intense version of mahogany. Maybe someone else can share comparison photos.

The taupes I've seen IRL seem lighter than that swatch. Taupe usually doesn't have any red in it. It is halfway between gray and brown.
