The buyer probably buys then sell A LOT of bags. So maybe they cannot remember every details of each bag. It's easy if you sell one bag once in a while to note everything.

This sounds like an excuse why a seller doesn't disclose flaws. Is it fair that a buyer should have to pay return shipping on an item because of a sellers' 'excuse'?

Uh - it did concern me since I was going to spend money in her store. If it was SNAD, I would have to spend money again to return it.

So, it's my prerogative to assume that this seller is dishonest by not disclosing an obvious repair job, and not waste $10+ on return shipping, plus a restocking fee.

You are ABSOLUTELY correct.It is these kind of sellers who buy things then mark them way up just because-- they have large feedback?- or they call themselves resellers? It is worth more somehow?? I see MANY of these with feedbacks stating items are fakes...So do they not check them totally out or maybe they do???Humm.then list them with as few issues if any at all --and some issues you can even see in photos yet they do not mention them? They KNOW they are there they just want more money..And yes then one of us buys it then sees this nasty mess and is like HELLO??WTH??? Then we have to pay the $10++ dollars to reship+ possible restocking fee.. ..it is INSANE. I actually know see quite a few resellers who do this .One in particular I just seen a very small bit ago buy a lot of what the seller called JUNK items.All LV however all in pretty rough shape did she list them like that...uh no...... Then us buyers are left to ask eighty million ? and request photos and STILL get let down.Vicious cycle..
