I mentioned before in this thread that I got a light blue H scarf but then the seller mixed up the package with that of another buyer from the US. I think that was a blessing in disguise after all!

Long story short, the seller was able to send a similar piece to the US. The seller asked me if I want to get the scarf instead of sending it back. Of course he/she offered a discount. After much thought I said no. But then, by some stroke of luck, the scarf got delivered to the house (instead of the usual me picking it up at the post office). I didn't refuse the package since I was afraid it will just get lost (PO antiquated and not very efficient).

I didn't open it yet then I contacted the seller. I said I will just buy it and to let me know how much I need to pay when he/she sends the original scarf I bought (still in transit back to him/her from the US). He/she quoted me a low amount to compensate for all the trouble! So I'm getting 2 scarves for a very good price, still within my budget for 1 scarf!

And, the scarf I almost rejected is so beautiful!! This seller pic doesn't do it justice! Grand Fonds.

P.S. Ksuromax - did you get your pink H scarf from a Japanese seller? We might have the same seller as I saw the same pink scarf in his/her sold listings.

Fabulous colorway of Grand Fonds! You will adore this scarf. It looks totally different depending on which way you fold it. I have it in shades of blue & grey, with some purple, and it's a favorite for travel because of its versatility. Have fun with it!

Thanks all!! Yes the seller is great despite the mix up.
Elaine, how nice that you have this scarf! The colors really wowed me when I finally opened the package. I will just really have to learn drape-y effect as I prefer that softer look.

I've been looking for carefree bags for a while with little success. Like @dcooney4, I want nice looking bags that don't have to be babied but are inexpensive enough so that when they get worn I can give them away or pitch them.

So I'm really happy as I think I've scored a brand new leather carefree bag for 70% off. It should be here Monday. Fingers crossed that it will do the job. :amuse: I think finding great carefree bags is harder than finding the perfect bags for our collections. :-s
