hello, anyone with experience buying from wearevintage852 (wearevintage852_)?

i paid for a bag but she's been really slow at replies because she said she was overseas, so i can't tell if she's just really busy or just a long drawn scam. i get that if she's a real scammer she wouldn't even reply me at all after getting my money.

she also said she's busy handling orders from her overseas trip and posted a story asking people not to rush her, but i still see her constantly posting new bags for new preorders etc, so am getting really anxious and desperate about her slow/lack of replies. imo she should prioritise orders for customers who have already paid, or at least give an update if shes busy, and give us a sense of when she might send the stuff out? she just constantly goes "ill update in two days/ update you tonight" and then does not update. i still am holding my breath that she's a real reseller, but with some questionable priorities, so i'm just waiting.

really stressing over it as its my first time buying a bag on instagram, so hoping someone could reassure me that shes not a scammer please..

Hi there! I bought from her earlier this year. First big purchase over instagram and I was sooo nervous. She was nice enough to hold the purse for me until I thought it over but after I bought it… it was crickets. She’s legit but really sucky with updates and shipping the item at the time she said she would. Was happy with my purchase but def wouldn’t buy from her again… just because it seems she does things when she feels like it… and makes up excuses for it.

Buyer beware of @carteblancheshop in Canada. Thought because they have 2 brick and mortar stores it would be legit, boy was I wrong. Got scammed from this store on 2 items and after doing much research the owner of this place has been scamming for years in Toronto and Montreal. Be careful and do your research.

Hi - I am looking for a reputable reseller that sells authentic Chanel bags in Australia preferably. I’ve been trying to find out more about luxloversmelb, mytimelessluxuries and timelesslikeaudrey. Can anyone please share your experiences with these sellers? Are they reliable? They have pieces that I’m after but I have never purchase pre loved items prior so am nervous to make my purchase online via IG. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

These resellers are all legit and trustworthy. Based in the US, I have purchased from mytimelessluxuries several times with no issues.
