Hi Starz and so sorry about the delay. I usually wait a bit with the bags I am not sure about to see if others can comment. I would definitely ask for more pics of the inside to see the tag and lining. There is one pic of the inside of the bag and it shows a tag. Can we see the front and back of this tag? Also, make sure you are comfortable with the size. It seems very small. A modeling pic would help. Please ask about any scuffs, marks, ID#, scratches, discolorations, etc. on the bag.

Hi,

This one looks good to me. The lining looks good and I have seen the ID numbers printed on the lining before. The hardware looks a bit aged and I hope that can be cleaned. I am not familiar with the hardware of this bag. The seller seems OK, but you can always contact him to ask about the general condition of the bag. Suede can easily get dirty, so you will want to know about any marks or scuffs on the bag.

Thanks gr8heart! , this is the details from the seller:

"100% authentic black leather handbag from Yves Saint Laurent, the classic Mombasa. Bag sits nicely on the shoulder and is not painful as the horn is smooth underneath. The bag itself is super functional with one main large compartment which has a zipped inner pocket as well. There is a leather tag sewn on the pocket with the words “Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche” printed in gold on top. The second smaller compartment is in front of the main one and is fairly roomy too. Both compartments close with a press stud.
There are also 4 pouches on the bag, 2 in front and 2 at the back which can contain small items such as lipstick, handphones, keys etc. There is another pocket in the centre of the front of the bag which closes with buckle. There is “Yves Saint Laurent Paris” printed on the back of the bag.

Dimesions are: Widest Length = 34cm, Height = 21 cm, Shoulder Drop = 11cm

Will come with the original dustbag but no cards, sorry. I do have the original receipt though, bought this bag 2 years on sale. "

Hi,

Just google ysl toggle satchel so you can see additional pics and size from a couple of websites: overstock and bagborroworsteal. The bag looks good to me! The seller states to not ask if the bag is real, but I would ask about the condition of the bag: any scratches, etc.

#1 looks OK, but I would ask the seller to describe "mint" condition. Lambskin leather can easily get hurt.

#2 worries me. These RVs are so hard. The seller is also in HK, so there would be custom fees. Let's come bag to this one a little later!

Hmmm...no cards. The seller got this bag on sale, so I would still go ahead and ask about the general condition of the bag and more pics. This is the small size, I think. I remember seeing one with two pockets on the outside of the bag. These are rare. Someone asked about the large one a few weeks ago. I would hate for you to pay a lot for a bag we are not completely sure about. Make sure the seller is trustworthy by establishing contact and asking about other terms: like return policy and shipping costs.

Sorry for the confusion!
The inside tag, ID# and lining look great! Even the controle card looks good. I am just afraid to tell you guys it is OK because the seller has other high-end designer bags and wallets listed, but has not sold anything since Nov. '07. The seller does have excellent feedback. I would establish contact with the seller to ask about the dustbag and the general condition of the bag: to please describe "used."

Thanks gr8heart! So do you think hroughly ow much this worth now? Seller is asking me to give her a best offer price, as she said the condition is pretty new. I will ask her for more interior photos. Do you meant this design are rare design? Thankew!
