So this isn't a big deal either way...I'm pretty laid back about things but I need some advice.
I bought a Small Hamptons Weekend Tote, it was something I fell in love with the second I laid eyes on it. I've been looking for a rainy weather bag for the fall season. (I don't want my Legacy baby to get rained on!)
The listing says it was well cared for...nothing noted on the outside of the bag but a few pen marks on the inside. Well, I received it today and first off it STINKS - not smoke or anything...just dirty grungy smell. UGH.
Secondly, the bottom corners of the microfiber are rubbed - all for of them (nothing too major, but still...). Also, there are TONS and I mean TONS -of pen marks in every pocket and section of the purse and grime and scuzz on the inside of the lining. Yuck.
The last thing is that it's TINY! She used a 12" measurement from the top of the bag - smooshed flat. The bottom of the bag is only 7.5 inches wide. That's just enough of a difference to make it too small for me.
So....do I just clean her up the best I can or contact the seller and try to negotiate a return or partial refund. I've done over 500 transactions on Ebay and have never had a problem - I'm not usually one to complain.
What do you think? I can post photos tonight - I'm at work and just received the bag. It is cute, I can't deny that!!
One more question, it has 2 hang tags, both teal, different shades and one a little bigger than the other. Did they all have that or did I get a bonus?
