Crazy for Coach | Thrift Store Finds Part Deux

This past week, I stumbled into a Goodwill not really expecting to find anything. However, I found a bunch of these lovely genuine leather bags.

Someone dumped their vintage Coach collection at this particular Goodwill for some reason no one will ever know!

{ Coach | Tagged at $16.91, but got a 50% color tag so total was $8.46 }


{ Coach | $8.95 }


This was my favorite and may use it as a camera bag...
{ Coach | $11.91 }


With my ever growing collection of purses, I'm rapidly running of room and am seriously thinking of re-selling some of them on ebay or etsy online. I'm also considering in giving them away as gifts.

There are a lot of fake Coach handbags out there and I tend to follow these guidelines when I come across a good priced Coach handbag (retrieved from various sites online).

General Guidelines:
  • The zipper pull has YKK mark on it
  • It has an embossed label with a serial code (some fakes have this, so make sure its embossed or at least raised print)
  • Stitching lines up and doesn't look sloppy
  • The straps don't fray or peel


Oh, and also, I found out that you can shop for more Goodwill finds online! Hellooo Goodwill of Orange County California { they seriously dump their last season purses and clothing on this site } http://shopgoodwill.com/


I'm still searching for what I've always wanted though...a vintage { or new - I'm not picky :) } Louis Vuitton purse.
