hi all! i had been asking about the demanta clutch in the barnacle print previously, and i finally got it a few weeks ago! i was at the bond street store and - to my absolute DELIGHT - it was 40% off!! of course i had to snap it up. one of the last 2 or 3 pieces left.

here are a couple of pictures i took in the hotel room - haven't taken any modelling pics yet, but as quackedup did such a good job with her post i don't think i shall have to! the lighting is a bit odd, but the barnacle print really stood out in the photo so i thought i'd post the pics up anyway.

thanks for letting me share!

All point bulletin :sos:

If you are the owner or know someone who is the owner of a glove clutch, could you please post pics. I did a bit of research and found that on sale they were in the $700 range, is this correct? How much did you pay? How much do you think the whipsnake version sold for? I'm eyeing this version and have had it on the brain for sometime now. Any pro and con intel would be highly appreciated. Thanks

i just ordered a mcqueen satchel off zappos, and when i received it, the bag came without any packaging at all. when i opened the box that it was shipped in, there was another cardboard box inside it, and then the bag inside its duster bag. the bag itself looked a little caved in on the top.

is that right??? it seems really weird to me that to spend money on a luxury brand and only get a bag in a cardboard box. this is my first time buying such a high cost bag, and i'm not sure if that's right, but it feels weird. i went with my sister to buy a prada bag at the prada store and upon purchase they packaged it in a lovely carrier bag with tissues and the works.

here is the bag in question, as it looked on zappos's site. i will post pictures of the actual bag when i get home

THAT would be Zappos packaging......they really do a very mediocre job at packaging - it's not a reflection of McQueen. We would love to see a pic of this beauty - congrats!

here are pictures! the first is how it arrived...the packaging was just underwhelming. the second photo are the closeups of the bag....it looks like it had something resting on top of it for awhile. the third is me wearing it.

i'm still torn about keeping it. thoughts?
