Beware of this "lime green" City. It was first listed somewhere else (don't remember where) for dirt cheap, with full disclosure that it had been repainted. It's now on VC with obnoxious threat-happy seller, claiming it's in "very good" condition without mentioning the repainting.

 
Watch out: seller on VC is listing the same 05 Magenta Box bag for twice the price as Brand Street Tokyo on Ebay:

$398 vs $813. Even if they plan to "sell" the bag and then buy it from BST they've stolen their pics.
I sometimes see the same bag with numerous Japanese sellers for different prices but then on VC one of them sells for twice than on ebay…. Elady does the same ??? I was always thinking that VC did not take more than ebay from the seller, so what is the reason.?

Yeah that's odd, but the VC seller is in Italy, which makes me think they're a bag flipper. Or scammer, who knows?

I bought this one posted in finds while ago, it looked beautiful with a nice patina, not new but nicely worn

Rouille Work:

I got torn corners…because Canadian buyers on Depop do not have Depop coverage and PayPal was not an option, I paid with Amex and am now going through Amex to dispute this, sent the add, photos, all they asked and will see how they resolve.

However, wanted to warn if the seller repost this one when I return (if Amex resolves well for me) , this is what you get. They had skilled photos to hide these flaws, and it looked like the photos captured everything.

This seller ‘s items are bought somewhere and mark up, same goes for the metallic purple city previously not sure whether he or she did sell it in the end because it was removed from listing.
