Default Opinions on Hype Costa Del Sol

Hey guys, I'm thinkging about buying this bag. It's marked down from $295 to $130. I love the shape. It's called the Costa Del Sol. Does anyone have one? Is it a good bag?

I'm technically on a ban, but I only have one black bag in my entire collection sooooo, I think adding another would be more like a fail-safe?? lol Enablers, help me!!!

p.s. princessaj0603, weren't you about to buy a Hype bag? If you did, how do you like it??

Or this one? Kinda reminds me of a small JC Mahala. It's about $50 more than the Costa Del Sol

I don't have that one, but I did just buy this bag:

and I love it. It's very smooshy, with soft, thick leather, and it has a TON of pockets. My only concerns: the inside, which is a thin satin, may show wear pretty easily, and the hardware (mainly the clasp) could be nicer quality.

I really like it! That is such a great deal too! From my experience, Hype has some nice quality leather and the purses hold up very well. I love that this purse is a handheld and has a shoulder strap...very versatile. You MUST get it. Btw...where is this selling for $130? I'd like to take a look at it...I also only have one black bag in my collection..another couldn't hurt right?

It's selling on SmartBargains.com. You also get free shipping if it's your first purchase (will be mine). It also comes in Taupe. This same purse is on Endless.com for $250!!! I'm going to mull it over and make a final decision tonight.
