Camper, was yours the Epi Vanilla Soufflot?
i'm just curious..... how many other LV bags do you have?!!! specially Epi?!!!
i read your other thred.... Horrible Vanilla Soufflot - The Purse Forum
and saw the auction pics, it looks ok and real to me?!!! AUTH LOUIS VUITTON EPI Vanilla soufflot pouch bag-NEW - (eBay item 110196198520 end time Nov-21-07 03:34:27 PST)
although many have had good transactions with her -
my friend had a horrible experience with her and received a mis- represented bag.
She did not want to resolve it until the poupette owner got involved, but the owner of my poupette was even more disappointing than the seller who mis- represented the bag.
As far as paying for your own shipping to return a bag, that is a given on any auction. If a seller is kind enough to offer a return, it is always the buyer's responsibility to return the bag at their own cost.
I agree that her offering you a refund is more proof of her honesty and integrity.
why would offering a refund be proof of her integrity? if she mis-represented the bag then she should be required to offer a refund. many sellers state things as "new" when they are really "gently used". it pays to be honest and if you are not honest and a buyer is not happy then it is the sellers responsibility to offer refund and provide return shipping which she did not. whether she is a student or a "good person", its not the issue, her character is the issue. if someone sold me a "new with tags" handbag and i received a "gently used bag" i would be very upset and would expect the seller to provide for return shipping.
