Sorry ladies for the delay...
But here is the story.
I sent a second email to the site and finally got a reply yesterday evening.
They said they were very sorry but they had to wait before giving me an answer as they had realized the Ricky I had ordered was.... different from the one they had received from their "supplier"and they had to wait for the supplier to give them some explanations.
They were satisfied with the supplier's reply.. ( which they didn't tell me about.)
They sent me a very small photo of a part of the bag.
I replied that in the pic, the colour was a lighter brown but that was okay..
CS answered that.... no It had nothing to do with the colour.. and that, in fact, it was the LATCH that was different..but they were 100% sure that it was a genuine RL Ricky bag as they don't sell fakes.
I know they don't but..
They offered another 10% discount to apologize ...if I confirmed my order.
I looked at the pic again. True, the latch was definitely odd to me.
I then googled the Ricky and nowhere did I see a latch like the one on "my" bag.
I sent the site a last mail, telling them to cancel my order and refund me ASAP.
I couldn't trust them any more. They should have got in touch with me before.
I told them that if I had not inquired about my order,God knows if they would have sent me the bag or given me a full refund and that the chapter was closed.
They replied they perfectly understood my suspicions and would refund me in... 3 to 5 business days.
So.... no Ricky...
What makes me angrier is the fact I had seen a Tiffin on Ralph Lauren site and didn't buy it because the money had gone to my HG. Of course the Tiffin isn't available any more.
It!s not the end of the world, I know... Still...![]()
My German feet are long and schmal. Birkenstocks are often too wide for me.
Wistles, eh?
I see mischief coming...
Guess islanders are all tired thanks to our glorious Chinese New Year festivities at the mackerel.

Hmmm. I had three weeks off around Christmas. Probably, I should just quit and start a sheep farm somewhere in some outback. Or get drunk at the Mackerel.
Murphy, my dear, you must have angered some entity out there. Badly angered. Maybe the deity of the mole rats? This is really a run of bad luck!
Very good and clever tricks! I tried once to clear a black jeans of a chemical stench with the help of vinegar.
It is just a huge NO for stuff to fall apart so soon. It does not matter how long they have been on some store shelf. They should not be constructed for being fine only on a store shelf.
My Foulonne is made in China, but has no odd smell. Thank God. The Cuir smells better, though. Hmmmmm.

I don't think it's a fake, Ludmilla, but I don't want to run any risks at this point.
I am really disappointed. Fortunately everyone here understands me....
Thank you so much for your wise words.
I am going to try to find a Ricky...
Wow! You're talented! It is beautiful! [emoji1360][emoji1360]
I'll join but without the sheeps. Quitted yesterday, though the project ends end of March I literally couldn't do it anymore. Long story. Husband quitted 2 days ago, long story too. On the bright side he found a new job within 5 days. Don't know how he does that. Must be magic. Decided to give Hermes one final chance after refusing to enter the store for over one year. Only one SA left all others are new faces. Totally unexpected good treatment. Even two Rodeos materialized in front of me. Refused but bought a scarf. No rooster, no reds, so I am terribly underdressed for New Year.

I know people who work 80 hours a week, too. Want to run away on the night circus train, though. Probably I am really fed up with the antics of my boss. (Putting him in some closet, like Murphy suggested would be fun. There need to be some mole rats in that closet, too. Hehehehe.)
Mug was a present of a friend. Told me to look at it as soon as office gets crazy: see no evil - hear no evil - speak no evil.![]()
It looked a little deformed in the tiny pic they sent me. Must have been a flaw.Oh no! I'm so sorrywhat did the latch look like?
I had seen that bag two or three months ago. At the time it was full price.I am so not sure what to say to this.
Kudos to the company for not passing on to you a bag that may or may not be fake.
Very very disappointing.
I wasn't even aware there was a market for fake Ricky bags.
Here's to hoping another comes your way soon.

Nothing to be desperate about but I have wanted that bag for so long that it had to correspond to the pic in the site.
The bag is genuine, I trust them on that but I will wait for another Ricky., mgwongline.
Best to wait. Even though it's excruciatingly hard.
Hugs to you.[/QUOTE
Every cloud has a silver lining...Best to wait. Even though it's excruciatingly hard.
Hugs to you.
There are so many beautiful bags around ...
New collections and all...![]()
Do you have something like Sarenza.com in Germany?You will find one. I am sure!
Yes, islanders understand all kind of bag sorrows and pain.
Thank you.
Oh wow. There is a lot going on in your life right now! I am very happy for your husband that he found a new job so quick. I am on the look out for a new job for about 5 years now.![]()
Should have learned something useful instead of literature.
I have never been to an H store, so I have no idea about the way they treat you there. I am glad that you had a nice experience and found a scarf. Which one did you get?
PS: I never found fitting shoes in Italy. I have size 42. And all I could find there was size 39.![]()
I had colour transfer with navy blue.. Arche shoes.I don't wear many jeans anymore for that very reason.
There are a few tricks you can try though.
One is to take them to the dry cleaners before your wear them. The chemicals they use to clean clothes will often remove the extra dye.
Or at home, you can do one of two things: wash 3 times in cold water. On the third wash, put in a cup of vinegar. Then put th in a HOT dryer for 5 minutes and hang to dry.
The other method is to soak in a bucket or bin for several days changing the water as it turns blue.
When no more dye comes out in the water, soak with vinegar and hang to dry.
The vinegar works just the same as on Easter eggs to "set" the dye.
It won't stop color transfer on a bag the hangs/ rubs on your jeans but it will keep the color off your skin.
