Surely a bargain for one of the newer Koobas?
This seller is also auctioning off a Kooba Devin which is simply called a 'leather shoulder bag' - they look real, but where did the seller get them? did they fall off the back of a Fall '07 Kooba truck or something? I dunno. It could be an amazing deal for both. I'm scared to find out though.

I bought my brynne from this guy. The pics he emailed me were authentic. I think he doesnt go into detail because he is an Ebay newbie and because he is a guy I guess! I also think he doesnt know just what price koobas can go for on ebay. I got my brynne for $225 where as other sellers have them in the $300's....
To him its probably just a 'red leather bag' not a 'Kooba devin'...hehehe

I made him an offer on the Devin, which he declined. Told me that was what he paid wholesale? How do you come by wholesale Koobas I wonder? Think I'll make another offer!

HAHA. Can you imagine if there was such a thing? Lexie and I would probably band together with matching pink balaclava's and hijack it stat!

That's good info Halzer. Did you receive your bag yet? Let us know!
Wonder if he got a "five finger" wholesale discount. Seems like a really great price!

The shape of that Scarlett is nice and the price, wow. But I envision the back side turning blue from rub off on my blue jeans.

Sigh...

Plus add the code miss235 and get another 15% off. That's almost 45 bucks off!

I find it amazing that if one waits long enough, you can buy a brand new Kooba for 50% or more off of retail.

It shows how quickly hot styles come then go.

Lexie, have Kooba prices always fallen quickly as styles move to the next season?

I think it depends on where you are looking. On ebay, Yes they drop dramatically but on Kooba.com....they hold their prices forever it seems. Even Kooba's sale page prices aren't great compared to Ebay. Seems like people know what is "in" and what the market will bear on these bags. My Tatum just sold for a whopping 86.00. I betcha if that bag was on Kooba it would be over 200 still.

But of course there are exceptions. Those Sienna prices rarely drop on Kooba. Those black ones still were selling for 595.00. And on ebay a true real smooth Sienna will still bring a higher price.

It's true that if you hold out long enough you can probably get a bag half price. I'm always afraid that the bag I will want will be a harder to find bag and I'll miss the oppurtunity. I am wondering how available Red Elisha's will be in 6 months.
