This is what Endless sent me when I first ordered it from them! sigh I guess it is a somewhat "common" problem? I hope it can get fixed REALLY soon!!

Hi everybody, i'm new on the forum but I need to ask you something! I saw few months ago the cupid bag in raspberry color, but they don't sell it anymore. Seems like it closed to the burgundy or eggplant tone.. I'm in France so i cannot check it in stores, because it is not sell oversea (what a shame!!) So i ask you for help!! I can't decide, i don't know which one is the closest to raspberry ??

( Also, excuse my english if it's not that good! )
Thank you for your time!

this is the color i'm looking for .. I mean, is there any chance that this season just the name of the color has changed ( Burgundy or eggplant instead of raspberry ) or there is a real difference ? Anyway, i will purchase for the closest, that's why i'm getting back to you!

(Sorry for the girl on the pics, had to find something online, and i have to say, she has a great collection of RM bags!)

The girl in the picture is Natalie from Natalie Off Duty, right?
I think her Cupid is definitely rasberry!
The eggplant on Zapoos (here) is very similar. I will say since it is not easy for you to locate RM bags in France, this is a great colour to buy. Amazon (here) also have it too.
Good luck with your decision making :biggrin:

raspberry was a f/w 2011 color; i don't think it's being sold anymore. you may be able to find it on ebay or bonanza though. (An easy way to tell if a cupid is raspberry or eggplant: the raspberry cupids are the old style with the pocket on the back and the tassel)

As someone else has said, eggplant is pretty close (although not exact). If you search on the forum, i think there is a comparison shot between eggplant and raspberry here: http://forum.purseblog.com/rebecca-minkoff/the-cupid-bag-666860-40.html#post22074636 (eggplant is on the left, raspberry on the right)

Thank you guys, you helped me a lot, I think I'm gonna go with the eggplant then. I also asked to the girl from rm online website she said that the most similar is the burgundy but it seems to me that the leather is not the same, also more shiny or something.. I will keep an eye on eBay while waiting to be sure!
Thanks!

hi all, i am fairly new to rm bags , but the more i see of them, the more i love them. i was hoping someone here could clarify something for me. i have seen cupid bags with a detachable tassel, but i recently purchased one new online and it didn't have the larger round tassel, only the fringe type tassels on the zipper pulls. when i called the retailer, they said theirs don't come with the tassel even tho it was mentioned on the product details page. sooooo, do cupids still come with the large tassel or has this been phased out everywhere? thanks so much in advance for any info on this.

No tassel on the new models. Only the old ones had the tassel and the back zipper pocket (under the RM metal plate).

well.... i actually ordered 2 during the bluefly sale, but can't decide whether to keep one or send both back. i was kind of counting on tassels because they were in the product description. i got the pale gray and pink. also, the pink was listed as having matte gold hw but actually had shiny silver hw. soooooo, any opinions out there?

Hmm, all of the cupids on bluefly have the description "tassel" but they are not the older ones that come with the tassel.

Which one of your cupids has the back zipper pocket? The pale grey version does not have one (http://www.amazon.com/Rebecca-Minkoff-Cupid-H205E01C-Shoulder/dp/B0068R62NI, see second photo, there is no zipper pocket under the RM plate).

Looks like the pink one has a back pocket but no tassel. (i'm assuming yours looks like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-REBECCA...787?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item4abb8f3de3)

guess what? i just checked and they both have the back zipper pocket. yes the pink one looks just like the one you referenced, but the grey one has the pocket there as well. this is pretty confusing to me. i used to be partial to coach bags, and at least with those there was always the style number on the creed to go by. guess i have a lot to learn:smile: still undecided as to what to do on these. guess i will stare at them for a few days and figure it out!
