So, today was the maiden voyage for my (new to me) Jimmy Choo Raven. Here she is in an action shot - not a beauty shot LOL! - sitting on top of packages I was taking to the USPS. She's a structured hobo so, she was a little less of a black hole. But, honestly, the leather is so yummy soft and the bag looks so cool for casual wear that I don't care.

Plus the fact that, with some conditioning, she looks new and I got her for only 7% (yes! SEVEN!) of the retail price means happy dance time. :happydance:IMG_2646.jpg

Thanks! How much would you consider to sell it if you are planning to sell? I am interested. :smile:

I never thought much about how much to sell them for. I don’t think I’m ready to haha. I feel bad since my SA made such a big deal about it.

They’re also hot stamped on the back with the Chinese zodiac of the year I received them.

But if I decide to sell, I’ll let you know.

It’s funny how I’m willing to give away gifts from family and friends I don’t like, but I hesitate at gifts from LV. Maybe because they’re LV?

After you told me that you had googled the Kita, I googled your Raven! :biggrin:
It is very like the Kita, just a bit fancier with the double zippers and I just love those little twists of leather at the handle - so cute!
And you got it a 7% of the retail price?!? That's fantastic!

Downsized my collection again today. Sold a bag I hadn’t originally planned to sell.
I’ve been critically looking at my collection and picked 2 more bags to let go off; my fendi 2jours (grey) and my saint laurent monogram shopper (black). I love these bags but i can honestly live without them and put the money towards my wishlist items for next year.

Sold the fendi today, price wasn’t too great but i can live with it. Got a low ball offer on my saint laurent so still holding on to that.
