Someone who really wants to find a lost or stolen item would do whatever is necessary to try to find her item.
All of us who've been here more than a few years have read stories (fiction and not) and can sense when someone is evasive.
In your previous post, you responded to my question that you have pictures. Now you're saying you didn't have pictures? I find that hard to believe, particularly since as a TPF'er and a seller, you know both what to show and what buyers need to see.
Regarding the bag being "long gone now," i don't know why you'd think that. According to your timeframe, it's been only 5-6 weeks since the "theft" and often, thieves hold off listing stolen goods, waiting until the fire has died down.
Is the Chanel bag the same one that was posted
here in September 2017?
