2015 resolution - shopping from my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

[bakeacookie]

Tonight, I'm very upset with the development of the customer service in a brand I used to like. I just found out they ban a customer just because that customer decided to sell her no-longer-wanted bag from that brand. Really? I thought the bag is mine after I bought it and it's my right to do whatever I want with them. I'm sad and infuriated. And I'm disappointed to see that some people think it's not important at all. Some even applauded of the policy coz it'll hopefully prevent the reseller. Well, people do have different opinion, but well,.... I guess I just didn't see it coming. I ranted it out with DH and he laughed and said that if I feel that way, he agrees with me that I should no longer support the brand. I know I'll not buy from them again and I'm ok with it. But I'm just sad that this practice is happening to the brand I once loved. Not to mention that I feel like a fool that I can't let their bags that I own go coz I still love them.

Do what makes you happy.

I do not resell often, but if I do, that should be my choice and to hear they'd wanna ban you for selling something you no longer use just seems crazy to me.

But I've already left that brand, the price hikes were too crazy for me.

Got a late start today and the sky looks very ominous so I am switching out of my Kate Spade. Rain and open top bag do not go well together. At least I got to take her out and see it and give it a bit of moisturizer before I put her back .

Bummer!

I am wearing my Bally next week and it's supposed to rain. Somehow I don't really think an open top will be an issue for me haha.


I'll be switching out of my Neverfull soon, so here's one more pic!

I am guessing you do not want to state the brand. I know some companies do not like people to make a constant profit off their bags via resale. I have heard it happen before to people . I have also heard of people be being banned from some companies for too many returns. If I were you I would just enjoy what you have and don't worry to much unless it happens to you. I myself have not had any issues and used to get caught up in things too that I read. My DH then said sometimes there is more to the stories then what you read. Hope this helps you to stop stressing.

It's not happening to me, but I feel that everything is all crazy. Too crazy. I agree that too many return isn't a good thing. Hoarding product to make a profit out of it isn't a good thing. And you're right that often, there is more to the stories. I guess I've gotten too caught up into things. I'm also surprised with the reaction and attitude of people there toward this same thing. I guess people just have different priority in life and it'll show, too. Maybe I didn't aware of it enough. Thank you very much. It does help.

I've left that brand in term of bags long time ago, but still visit the boutique sometimes in term of other accessories and small knick knack. Banning letter isn't the new thing. A couple years ago before or at the beginning of all the crazy price hike, I think there was a regular on the sub forum that got the letter, too. She just left and never come back. Not many people have heard of the thing and share the story. This time, I happen to stumble on the thread again and more people shim in and it gets crazy. Maybe I'm too emotional. I don't think what they do is right and I decide that I'll no longer buy from them. Nothing caught my eyes anyway. It's not hard at all. The practice is just simply awful. And yes, the price hike is the most crazy thing I've ever seen.

The color combo you picked for this tote is really pretty. I agree that it's one of the best I've seen. Such a refreshing combo. And I like that you pair it with the red cup. All the color just give out the holiday spirit. I can't believe that the year is passing by so fast and new year is approaching soon.

I never think of this point before. I hope you brave the rain well and don't catch any cold. People around me is now taking turn sick. I guess it's the spirit of the ever changing weather. It's getting cool in the early morning, so hot during the day, with the possibility of rain in the evening. I hope winter is approaching soon.

Thanks!

I want to get something mon monogram but in the Damier Graphite

None of their practices are right, it doesn't make them more exclusive, it turns people off. There will always be fans for them, but there's a good amount who also will not be fans.

And thank you! It's really feeling like the end of the year, it's crazy.

I placed an order for petit h because people said its a bag charm. Here's to hoping I get something pretty.

Oh! You mean those surprise online offers they have, right? Please share them once you get it. I'm curious. I hope you get the pretty things you like.

I agree with that their practice is wrong. The turning off knob is getting turn on and on and on. I guess this is my final straw.

This year, my work load is less required physically, but more demanding mentally. I agree that it is crazy. Normally, it's more chill by this time. But all will pass anyway. I'm trying to tell myself this when I'm stressed out.

Everything here needs to be done by year end. Very tiring.

And yes! The surprise offers! I'm so curious too. I'll just chalk this to the bday petit h I didn't get haha.

Hang in there. I'm sure you can make it.

I'm trying desperately to not go crazy shopping due to all the hours I've done. Haha

Now, I can answer you about DD's Tae Kwan Do lesson. She came back last night with a card stating that she's now in yellow belt grade 1. It's gonna be a long way for her to go to green belt. Now, she's so happy with a more colorful belt and a little pride that she's moving up another step.

Oh... I've been there! I have to forbid myself not to go to the mall and throw my card into a drawer. j/k, but I was so tempting to do so.

I hear you, we're getting rainfall warnings where I'm at. I managed to squeeze in a few days with my canvas horsebit boston, but now on to my winter bags!

Finally she has reached me!! I waited more than 3 months for this. My sister shipped the box (with some other stuff) end of July. But the sea vessel left the US mid Sept. The vessel arrived here October. Then the forwarder had difficulty having the container van released by customs. After a long wait, finally!! I so love how red it is!! This is my Marc Jacobs 54 in Flame Red.



And, I also got the 3rd of my 4 October purchases. I felt contentment when I saw her in the flesh. I had the ebay listing authenticated and when I got her I again requested authentication using my own photos. Here is my Christian Dior Maris Pearl, bought at a great price!
