The faded handle and stain were not disclosed on the listing. Actually, it was listed as VGUC and Excellent vintage condition. The seller took pictures indoors so the faded handle was not visible. But when i take it outside or under bright light, it's very noticeable. My daughter even said, "the handle looks green and bag is navy blue." You may be right... perhaps the handle was replaced at one point.
But i'm afraid i'll be stuck paying for return shipping if i try to return.
If it is not as described, the seller has to pay the shipping.
Yes this. You should probably return it. Seller should be more careful to describe item's condition in future!
