KB: Give it some thought, I think it's priced reasonably. If you check the main MJ forum, a lot of members here love this color. =)

Leshent sold a brand new Sap Venetia a few months ago, I wish he has more MJ stuffs.

Thithi, Luvpurses24, Chloe.Clementine, Shushopn, Gracefeng: Thank you for being so nice to me. I gave these bags some thoughts earlier, I don't think I should go for this Maroon Stella. As much as I want a dark colored Stella, I would like it in a color that I don't have yet. Not only do I own a Maroon Venetia, I am on the hunt for an Amethyst Blake. And yes, I'm most likely getting a Zip Bowler in Black or Chili. There are too many beautiful bags and not enough money trees. =( I'm eliminating as many items on my Want List as possible, Paddington Satchel in Cream is crossed off for now. I gave up looking for a Quilted Ursula Zip Clutch in Blush.

Will see how high the Key Pouch will go for, don't hestitate to go for it ladies. =) As for Elise, I have a Black Quilted Patent Elise which I love more than all Soft Calf Elises. I wanted that item because it was an old Amethyst with silver hardware.

I don't think Maroon Venetia & Stella are overpriced at all, they are brand new and rare. =) Might have to do with me not being able to find great deals on items. =)

Pretty sure this Liya is fake.

O yeah, that's really fake. The leather just looks so iffy to me :yucky:. Not to mention the dustbag is wrong too. Aren't they always used suede anyway on Liya?

bag.lover, the indigo blake is gorgeous! IMO, I like the maroon Stella better but since you want something different, Indigo would be a great color too. I like the stitchings alot on this color. The bag looks good to me. The zipper and the leather texture, but I have never seen this color IRL. The Stella is pretty too! I would go for the Stella :p. Maybe you can find one too on ebay. As you can tell I'm not a big fan of Blake. I don't know why.

KittyBag, I think the Venetia SAP is really beautiful and it's a hard color to find these days. I'm in the same situation as you too. I just got too many new bags! My hubbie would go crazy if he knows exactly how many bags that I just bought recently!:nuts:

Are these real? They both are beautiful and I can't choose!

Hello experts! I love the maroon stella that's on ebay right now, but I'm also looking at this LE Black Stella. Any thoughts? TIA! :wlae:

Hello marclover! The LE Stella looks good to me as I think not too many fakes of LE Marc Jacobs out there. I love the style of the pocket on LE collections but in terms of color, I always choose black as the least color I would go for a handbag. It just my tastes to pick colorful handbags :p so I would suggest to go for the maroon Stella as it is very pretty and kinda hard to resist :nuts:. However, if you're looking for a traditional and casual handbag that would go for all season, I would suggest the black especially if you don't have a black handbag. Everyone has to have a black handbag at least one ;) though the maroon can be a very versatile color too and would be a perfect bag for Fall and Winter seasons. Wow, it's really hard to choose! :shrugs: Sorry if I'm not a big help but both are terrific bags!

fruitskeletons, I can't tell for sure whether it's authentic or not but this bag is sure is raising some doubts for me. The plastic over the hardwares, I'm not so sure about that. I didn't get my Stam from retail store so I don't know if they really do put plastic on the hardwares other than the chain but I have some of my MJ from NM and MJ store, and they never cover the hardwares with plastic.

The tag and the bag don't match up. It's a soft calf stam collection so the leather has to be 100% calf but why does it say Goat Leather. All I know, Goat Leather is used only for quilted patent leather and according to this link:
http://forum.purseblog.com/marc-jacobs-reference-library/marc-jacobs-resort-2006-a-50274.html
Ivory is Resort'06 collection and the "2" on the tag C362111 indicates that it's from Fall'06. I could be wrong since I'm no expert on this but I hope other PFers can help you out. I would suggest to PM bag.lover or thithi.
