Discuss **Deals and Steals** Chat Thread

[chodessa]

I just received a Foley and Corinna Black Patent Hobo today and unfortunately it has only intensified the **SEVERE ITCH** for the violet HH trophy....
Should I start a new thread for Non-HH purchases? Do you think others would share there "deals" there??

[asark]

I think we have something similar to that already - it's called "If you love HH you'll also love... " (or something like that!).

how do you like the F+C? i got a Mid City Tote in Glitter and i like it but am bummed there is no dust bag. it is rougher in terms of craftsmanship but there is something kind of chic and cool about it. not sure if i'll keep it or not... the glitter is awesome though - a vintage aged gold metallic. kind of sueded.

were you thinking a show and tell about deals and steals we snag or a heads-up about deals and steals? or both?

i think it's a great idea. i have been dying to show off my Jenny Yuen bag! I kind of envisioned the "if you love HH thread" to be not necessarily about bags or even accessories or purchases at all. RM has a thread i think that is "post your non-RM purchases here." i'd be interested in something like that for us!

I wrote a whole review in the Bags Bags Bags... the no dust bag thing actually really disappoints me for those prices... Rude IMO...
I'm going to post it in the new thread...

[chodessa]

Okay... the thread is up... please join me.. sometimes this forum makes me self conscious like I am ALWAYS posting pictures of myself... LOL........

Not Rare ~ It's the Coral canvas from Anthropologie and I understand the color is more a light red. I've seen better pictures of it, tho, and do think it's kinda interesting.

[leothelnss]

I think it's interesting too... Not sure if it's my style so I didn't go for it.
Is the main bit leather or canvas? I see that the pockets are but can't tell with the rest of the bag.
Some of the anthropologie stuff is really... Interesting. lol

There's a Pompidou in ebay now. I'm drooling!!!

Yes, it is canvas with washed leather trim. It is a deep coral color with luggage leather. I have it in the Gaza Satchel. The whole bag is washable, which is pretty cool. I've never used it, so I may need to take it out of the closet and give it a spin.

Hey ! What are you waiting for ! It looks so good on the satchel very pretty for Fall,( yes they are washable, I've done it) . Where did you post a picture of yours?

[mlinky]

Ummmm, I didn't because I'm one of the technologically impaired (ie: no digital camera). However, a friend lent me one to take pics for my HHRAOK reveal, so maybe I should take this opportunity to make pictures of my collection?

I do have a camera on my holiday wish list.

I just bought a clutch wallet off of Ebay and I'm really excited because I've been itching to get a clutch wallet in Lagoon. But this is the first time I've ever purchased anything off of Ebay, and I'm a bit nervous. It feels weird to have purchased something from someone without even communicating with them. I don't even know if I've done everything I need to do. I got a payment confirmation message--is that all that needs to happen? Will the seller just send me the item or do I need to email them?

I know you ladies buy from Ebay regularly, so I felt better about going through with it, but I feel like such a fish out of water in this process...
