Vintage Coach Photos & Chat

[Bagmedic]

Ever since I saw this bag, I have been in love. It was hard finding one that was in my price range. When I did, I missed the auction deadline. I asked the seller for a photo of the creed and if she was going to relist it. She sent the photo of the creed and told me she would relist. It took her awhile to relist but when she did, I snagged it, lol. It is a cream/ivory color with a gray undertone. I'm going to clean her up and condition her. Oh yeah, the cat in the background is Zoe. I couldn't move her because she was so happy in the sun.

Congrats! I love the black one I have and also loved it from the first time I saw it in the Coach in the Wild thread! I'll have to keep an eye out for more colors!

Who likes a satchel? NA, but not pinging my radar.

Well someone bought it, I hope it was a fellow tpf'er [emoji1]

It was me.. I loved the brown one so much, I had to have the black. I also got $5.00 off from Mercari.

Yay! I liked it just to keep an eye on it, and I got the notification it sold. You'll have to post pics!

I will, it’s a great size for me and I love the style. Thank you for posting ...

There's been a lot of love for the Manor bag here lately, and after seeing the beautiful pics @theblissfullyobsessed posted of hers, I really wanted one in Taupe. I've been searching eBay, Poshmark, Etsy, and Mercari and actually found 3 different ones--unfortunately all 3 were missing the straps. Evidently there's some sort of black hole somewhere that sucks in Taupe Manor straps lol. So I was super excited to see one listed on eBay earlier today WITH the strap. The seller accepted my offer too, so even with shipping it ended up being about $20 less than the asking prices of the strapless ones. The always helpful @whateve just kindly authenticated the bag for me on the AT thread too so yay! This was the bag at the very top of my wishlist, so maybe now I can slow down a bit with the obsessive checking of new eBay listings. Just kidding, my new targets are Court bags in red, BT, and black w/nickel hardware lol.

Yay congrats! I am also on the hunt for a black Court with nickel hardware.

Congratulations! Hope you will post a picture of it here when you get it. I started looking at manor bags because of this thread too and I almost pulled the trigger on a black one.

I think my eBay seller sent me the wrong bag...I won the regular courier in what was pictured to be BT (see listing pics)


But what turned up scarily crammed in this small box

Seems to my inexpert eye to be the small courier in tabac????



I am actually ok with the size and the bag as a whole, really just looking for help with her offiical color name and if she is the small (which is what I wanted anyway).

I was watching that listing. You can verify whether you received the same bag by checking the serial number shown in the listing and comparing it to yours.

It looks like Tabac to me, but I don't think it's the smaller version. The smaller version has slightly rounded bottom corners:

I'm not surprised. That seller isn't known to give stellar service.

The serial number is a good idea, I didn’t think of that, thanks. I see the difference in the corners, it is just smaller than I expected, guess the actual small woukd be too small for me then.

Probably why it came with a paper saying to return it through them and not ebay if unstatisifed. I plan to keep it, it just looks nothing like the listing pics except for being a Coach courier.

I'm glad you're going to keep it. Tabac is one of the vintage colors that has grown on me.

If you're planning to rehab it, I think you'll be pleased with the transformation. Here's one I rehabbed:
