Default Berry Matt TME silver HW
ok i was just on the BE website (which i haven;t been on for a while, due to kids being ill, housework piling up, husband being away on business. loads of ebay hassle...) and saw a bag described as a Berry Matt TME, silver HW ..(no picture) .
the price was reduced to £180 so i've just bought it - i've no idea what the colour will be, but i've so many BE bags figured it will go with something in my wardrobe like grey/black/taupe... does anyone have any idea why this bag was so cheap and what colour it is?? i know it was a complete impulse buy but i love my TME midis (have milk choc pebbled and pewter crash) and couldn;t resist a full size TME as i know it is a style i will use and is super-versatile..

i'm feeling a bit extravagent though as my other 3 bags from the limited leather sale should be arriving tomorrow!!!!

That sounds pretty! I think it will be somewhere between the darker wine pebbled and the lighter raspberry toned wine sheen. That is my best guess. It will be neat to see the color of it!

wow that is a fab price

I impulsively bought a tme in glossy red in the summer sale and love her - she is a very smart "dressy up" bag the only downside - I went on a bit of a red shoe buying spree but still have not found the perfect pair but the search will continue

looking forward to your pics

skipping off now to see if anything else is madly reduced

ok now i've seen jackie's post about the sale i'm wondering did i get the bag or not? if i've read her post correctly (and i only skim read it) we need to use Moneybookers to pay from now on and register and get a password and stuff. i'm sure this is more secure but to be honest i'm so innundated with passwords for various credit cards and bank accts that i could do without any more!!! has anyone else snagged a bag in the "unofficial" sale yet and had it confirmed they are getting it????

I did and the payment seemed to go through OK. If BE wants to cancel it that is fine and I will get a refund and refrain from reordering.

But isn't that the same bag as the dark pink which is at full price? Looks identical on my monitor.
