Anyone up for a classic? :tumbleweed:

A short backstory first: I first saw pictures of Yinnie's vintage celine box and I was obsessed since then. I totally had a crush on that purse. For the past month or so I have searching high and low for a similar vintage box and i have bid and lost on a couple of biddings wars on ebay and everytime i just get depressed.
around 2 weeks ago I saw and bought a box on a website that was selling vintage pieces.it wasnt exactly what I wanted (exactly like Yinnie's) but I must say that ever since the bag arrived it been growing on me.
hope you guys will like my classic celine!

details about the bag's condition:

i was expecting it to be pretty scuffed up and in bad condition considering that they priced quite affordably! $84USD to be exact.
when i got the package, i was a bit horrified that they hadnt bothered to put the bag in a box before putting it inside the parcel envelope. they just wrapped it in bubble wrap and that was it!
so I was just on cloud9 upon discovering the bag to be in very good condition. the little scuffs that it had went away with some leather conditioner. the hardware is in near perfect condition, no tarnishing or fading whatsoever. and to think i was prepared to shell out $300usd to restore this piece at LovinMyBags!
to whoever owned this box previously, you are a star!!!
