Haha, might that *hint hint* be directed at me by any chance?
Only a few of you know, as I accidently posted my heartbreaking disappointment in a different thread, and decided to leave it hidden there until I decide what to do next. Short story -- my Burgundy Rexy Tote arrived late Wednesday night, after sundown, and I was horrified to find an OXBLOOD Rexy Tote. I was hoping that the non sunlight (artificial light) was playing a trick on me and that Thursday, as soon as the sun rises, I'd find my Burgundy Rexy.
Sadly, Thursday morning, in sunlight, I just found a brighter version of Oxblood! As I joked earlier, in a horrible case of deja vu, I'm reliving my original Aubergine Nightmare all over again. The frickin' bag is a beautiful shade of BROWN, probably Oxblood. That'd be fine IF I liked Brown or Oxblood...but I DON'T!! I paid almost $1,100 (after tax), for a BURGUNDY Rexy Tote 38, and I won't settle for a color that fell victim to either a colorblind photographer OR
Coach execs. that played "pin the tail" on their Coach color chart when deciding what name they'd label this Brown.
I've already notified my SA that Rexy is going back in a few days, and despite my Drama Queen post here, I am over the initial trauma. I know people have lost loved ones and homes with Harvey, so I'm trying to keep things in perspective (not very successfully, I know). Swapping it for the Orange version is not an option because the Carriage graphic looks too lightly stamped, for my taste. At least it's nice and dark on my current one. And the 1941 Red interior on mine is TDF, but no dice.
Sorry for the lengthy ramble -- you all understand how seriously we take our beloved handbags, I'm sure.
If anyone wants to see a pic of my OXBLOOD Rexy, LMK and I'll post it here.
