So I admit to not knowing much about Kate Spade (other than memories of being totally the IT brand among popular girls at New England boarding school circa early aughts...) but I recently fell in LOVE with its Chinese takeout bag! I don't think this is still available in the boutiques- and I couldn't find one on eBay either? How could I track this down?

I think a seller called fancythistoo is having a sale. I bought from them but my one problem is that I am still not sure if what I bought was authentic even though I accepted the item at a discounted price. The reason why I said this was that the bag looked exactly the same as the authentic but the cloth was much courser, which lead me to believe it was a fake. By that time, it was too late to reclaim my money back. So I left it alone.

I promised to leave positive feedback but decided on neutral feedback. I praised that they had awesome response and customer service on a neutral comment.

You can also try waiting for a surprise sale. Sometimes they bring back some of the bags that have sold out in the past. I remember missing out on the typewriter bag (Typed Up Clyde) and the mini luggage bag (Smoke and Mirrors Corbin) years ago and all of a sudden they showed up on one of their online sales at a great price.

Try calling CS and see if they can find any. They can give you the numbers to any stores that might show they have it. I think the stores ship for free but don't quote me.
