That one looks good to me - what does everyone else think? :confused1: But, it is for sale for so cheap which makes me wonder. This Malena was a new bag in fall 07 - black w/gunmetal hardware. I own it. So, I guess I am torn. Please others, take a look.

One other thing, the auction description says gold hardware...please clarify with the seller, because it is gunmetal in the pics. I hate those discrepancies - they make me suspicious because I don't know if it a "cut and paste" error, or deliberately misleading.

I'm with you Jburgh....I thought it looked good, but that BIN price is so low it makes me suspicious. :s I don't know....it's either a great deal that should be snapped up right away, or what could be a really good fake.

^ VERY good point! :yes:

I don't know, I may miss out on a good deal here or there, but I pretty much stick to that rule that if if sounds to good to be true, it probably is! :nogood: I think a gently used bag would probably go for more than this seller is asking for this bag NWT.

Also, the seller does NOT take PayPal so there goes that protection, and with the minimal feedback....not a risk I'd be willing to take. :tdown:

I checked out the seller's other auctions and they are all high end bags with less of a discount than the Choo. Maybe they've had the Choo longer and have been unable to sell it so they've listed it at a bargain basement price.

If it's authentic, and it does look it, then it's a GREAT deal! If you feel comfortable taking the chance, you could end up with an amazing bargain on a new bag. The seller takes CCs, just not through PayPal. So if it was a bait and switch and you did get a fake bag you'd have to go through your CC company and hope that they'd be able to recoup your funds rather than being protected under PayPal Buyer Protection which would guarantee you a refund. If the seller is long gone though, you could be stuck.

I don't know, the listing looks really legitimate, their other bags look good, they're feedback while low is all positive...sooooo what are ya gonna do?? :smile1:

i would be very careful with this one. I was watching this, but if you look at the seller's completed listings you will see that this same bag (or at least same pictures) was sold on October 16 for $1,300. Huge price difference raises a red flag for me.
