This is an authentic Chanel Couture Messenger Bag. it is in Fair condition. still have a lot of life left in it. please note: a few popped stitches on the front flap, corner wear on the flap and on the bottom of the bag. The leather has relaxed on the bag so it is very soft. there is a red stain in the interior slip pocket (I have not tried to clean it) this bag was purchased this way and I have never reached for it.
