Picked up a Bixby Sling for myself that needed soma love and decided to freshen up a bag my niece has her eyes on. CPR, horsehair brush to inside and out, stuffed more CPR, clipped some threads and brasso to the hardware. Final touch blackrock to the edges and straps.
>Beware of the Coach Soho Belted Bucket Bag (Style 4156) currently listed on TRR. I recently returned this exact item due to massive quality issues and incorrect specifications. The strap is far shorter than 52 inches, the hardware stamping is historically inaccurate for the style, and the leather base is glued and peeling apart. I submitted detailed photos of these structural flaws, but it was relisted anyway at full price.
This is a fake Coach Soho Belted Bucket Bag (Style 4156). I bought it on a whim due to the sale price at the time. As soon as I pulled it out of the bag I knew it was fake. The size of the bag is off, the shoulder strap is supposed to 52in, this one is very short. Leather and hardware are all wrong, cheap flimsy leather bottom piece is glued and coming apart, strap handles are coming apart. Solid Brass is stamped on the hardware big Red Flag for a fake of this time.
See second pic for details on the authentic.
So frustrating, I went rounds trying to get a return and gave them all the pictures and details on why this is fake and they still relisted it and at FULL PRICE!
Buyer Beware if buying vintage coach from them.
