I am thinking of getting a gently used bag like a Piano. I am leaning toward used because I need something that I do not have to worry about and can really use. It will probably be in the car a lot ( lot's of heat and I live in Florida ) . I just need it for misc. stuff, like wallet, stuff for my braces ( yes, I just got them), phone, cosmetic pouch
. I t needs to be casual. I don't want to scream attention with a very fancy LV- just needs to be functional.
But something in me is getting really envious to have a brand new, never touched by anyone but me bag. I am not saying I will trash it, I do take excellent care of my bags. I guess my biggest dilemmia is the fact that it will be in the car/heat a lot. I can save some $$$ by getting one that already has patina. Plus I am on the fence about the milk white-new leather and the loved look of golden patina.
Thoughts? I am a bit worried about the leather bottom of the Piano too, but don't really care for the neverfull.
Thanks for any advice. I know I rambled.
