Wow does this have a bit of metallic in it? I love this, and I hear 04 has great leather.
It's a gorgeous darker silver, well pewter :lol:, metallic with some light pinkish undertones. VERY hard to describe, you have to see it with your own eyes. Dreamy! :love:
The 2004 Holiday Metallics also had matching hardware. 2005 and the later metallics have shiny silver hw.
I think it was also agneau, but not 100% sure. It's incredibly soft, though. This one looks soooooo good!!!

Wow this price, Yoogi's has a black one for $975. Seriously considering this blue, love it with the silver hardware

Yeah, that's one of the best prices on this model I've ever seen. Not enough photos to capture full condition, but it looks decent as far as I can tell. And I love the blue. I'd never seen it in this color before.

Did anyone buy what -- at first glance -- looks like a Mystery Green City on TRR First Look?
If you did, I'm gonna 🤞🏻its authentic, but I don't know -- it looks a lot like a fake black bag I recently bought from them & had to publicly shame them daily on social media before they finally refunded my money 10 days later

Made me look! :P Didn’t see it or would have been excited. The color and hardware look pretty Mystery Greenish to me….but tRR pics are never enough to be sure. It’s always the thrill of the gamble with them.
@iluvmybags What's this inside the bag? A stud or rivet that fell off? (last pic showing inside of bag)

ETA it's a stud (which they have hidden in EVERY PIC!!)

They mention a "missing embellishment" in the details but did a really good job hiding it in nearly every single photo by covering it with the strap or the model's arm. You can see it in this pic tho -- I think this stud is what we see in the photo of the inside of the bag

That is so deliberately deceptive. There's damage but it's hidden in every single picture.
Even the 'poorly photoshopped on a model' pic her arm conveniently hides it.

Here’s another one that was purchased recently and ridiculously marked up.

Mini Perforated Drawstring Bucket bag

Original listing sold for $175


Now listed for $975 with a description that starts out in all caps “NO LOW BALL OFFERS” 🤣


And on VC for $900+

I wish I had bought it for $175!
