I felt the same way but didn't say it. So thank you. lol I didn't like how it looked at all, and it definitely does not look like a 1800 bag.

Very poorly executed.. What a waste of that crocodile skin. If I got it for free I'd remove the skin and put the lacing back to match the back. Maybe make a wallet or something out of that croc skin.

2477ACA4-2712-4A3A-A631-8D3B4E37A13F.jpeg Part II of my order came today, and other than the pearl in the middle, I’m happy with it. I originally thought I’d use it for a purse organizer, but I worry I’ll end up scratching/cracking/etc. the center pearl (I’m fairly certain it’s plastic). I love the blue suede though, and adore the dinky little 1941 tag, so I’m going to have a hard time sending it back. Most likely it’ll end up being yet another “treasure” that I stick in a drawer and won’t see the light of day again until future generations clean out our house for the estate sale...

I'm not sure these pictures capture the bad condition. The yellow can't stand up and the Western has scratches and the navy stripe is sun-faded on one side.

Unfortunately sounds like a fairly typical FOS experience (there are a few exceptions). This is why I try really hard not to buy on FOS anymore. I return almost everything. I keep things like the Star wars key fobs, that are new, etc, but Reserve bags I only have occasional luck in getting a good one.

I've been so lucky before now, but the bags this time are not good - not for only 55% off retail

I just dropped off 2 out of 3 FOS bags to UPS along with the defective croc troupe from FP.

Dang! The yellow really does look used. I’m starting to think the return department doesn’t verify anything beyond there being a vaguely purse-shaped object attached to the price tag whenever they get a bag back. You suppose they’d notice if I just cut a Rogue out of cardboard and sent that back?

I agree with this! No pics but I returned my pale green rogue 25, one ivy green shoulder bag, a blue metallic rogue 25 and a rivets pouch, all from this sale. They were in just terrible condition. Like, I wouldn’t buy them for any amount of money terrible. Coach needs to start damaging these items out instead of trying to sell them for hundreds of dollars a piece, wasting everyone’s time. Sheesh!

Just got an email stating there is a coupon starting tomorrow with either 15% or 20% based on how much you spend. Code is savemore. Don’t know if they plan to add new reserve, but if there was something, I would have to do some real math (not Coach math) to see if it is a good enough deal. Although, seeing the shape that many bags are arriving in, I may just pass entirely.

I've stopped buying accessories for that very reason. I have drawers full of them and often never look at them again after I buy them. I am in the process of cleaning out my drawers and giving a bunch away. It's also time for another bag purge. Again. I have held on to so many generations of Coach, Balenciaga and Proenza bags and I need another round of purging even with my "one in/one out" policy. My Balenciaga bags are down to a usable minimum, but my proenza and coach bags could use a purge.

I am happy to say I did the purge at our last holiday celebration. Gifted about 15 bags to nieces and friends - 50% practically brand new. Will do another purge in Spring when we all get together again. Also have a bag right now sitting in my family room ready for gifting :smile:
