ever wanna buy one of those used and abused speedys from ebay??

i wouldn't mind getting a used LV at all, but one that is not too abused (i think that would start to bug me!) especially if i'll just be using it for my day-to-day. and if in case it does bug when you use it, consider having the handles changed by LV. just saw in another thread here where the cost is about USD150; but you would need a local LV to give you an exact quotation. 9 weeks to do this job so a little bit of a wait.
 
I don't mind buying used bags on eBay. I see them as "pre-loved". I earn a pretty good salary but can't afford to splash out regularly on new bags.

I love browsing through people's auctions for great bargains. But as there are a lot of fakes out there, I make sure I do all my research and ask all the right questions before buying them.

I think I've gotten 2 speedys, a horizontal lockit, a cabas mezzo and some smaller pieces that way. So hey, I'm all for it!!
