I ordered four bags in two separate transactions since I kept changing my mind. Both went through fine and show up on my accounts.

I went to moneybookers and started registering but they ask for way too much information for my comfort and seem to be just like Paypal-- an online payment system for sending and receiving money. To get limits lifted apparently they need your bank account, which is not happening.

Like Jenova, Be can cancel and refund me if my orders don't go through because I am not signing up for the Moneybookers account.

What post from Jackie about the sale? I just bought a pewter AP and a mottled silver clutch me and got an email from BE confirming my order. I don't want to set up a moneybookers account. I'll be a bit pissed off if I have to in order to get my sale items. Ok, maybe giving up coffee was a bad idea? Everything seems to be getting on my nerves! I'm off to make a cup, I can't stand being this mad all the time.

I think it is going to be OK if the payment seems to go through unhindered.

Yes they are all in their cocoon for the winter. Hope that I dried them out sufficiently to survive the cold season first.

It does look the same. If so, what a pretty color!

I am not keen on the sounds of that site. I don't like to put in my actual bank account information unless I absolutely need to. I only did it for Paypal b/c I needed to do so for limits being lifted and to receive money for ebay/Bonanzle sales.

I thought the same thing, and I freaked out. If you pay with credit card, they can verify you and raise limits by verifying address by snail mailing you a code that you go and enter into your account and/or credit card. They verify the card by doing a small charge that you enter once you check the balance and see what it is.

It was a painful and annoying process at first, but it's easypeasy now. I did not give out my bank account number at all.

Hi darling

here's the link to Jackie's orig post:

BE News - Upcoming Sales....

if my c card transaction doesn't go thru i'll just cancel the order as to be honest Moneybookers is just another layer of beaurocracy i don't need. it was bad enough getting bank accts verified on paypal, let alone this!!

Thanks P! I'm with you on the whole PayPal thing, what a palaver. I've just noticed a Black Crash Hug Me on sale for £199 but I must resist, I must! I love the Hug Me and would love to try a crash leather but I must be strong.

Wow! After seeing the berry pictures, I decided to switch back to my Wine Sheen TME Midi. I think you got one of the best bags in the sale.

It's not at all, Pradameinhof. Kiwi is DARK. It's an olive. I was expecting my kiwi LM to be somewhere near the Hermes chartreuse color, but it is a very, very dark color. Not even close to apple green at all.

Kiwi is far closer to Hermes toundra or vert olive barenia, not at all like chartreuse.
