I once had coffee spill and once an incident with face powder in my Damier ebene Speedy. I turned the Speedy inside out and washed the lining with mild soup or shampoo and then let it dry. Lining was fine afterwards.
I know it was a typo, but the image of washing the lining of your bag with a can of soup was very funny.
In all seriousness, this is a good idea if you sub out soup for soap. Mild dish soap should remove that completely. If you want to accelerate the drying process, use a blow dryer on the cool setting.
Is this your original bag or a bag you bought recently pre-loved? Overall the inside looks kinda dirty. Soap and water is your best best. But if it's a really old stain it might not come out. Perhaps buy a red bag shaper from Samorga so you don't have to look at it.
Haha, dang! I knew something looked off (sorry, not my native language...)!
With soap it definetely works.
The Speedy is quite sturdy. 
I haven't bought the bag yet. I'm waiting for her to send me more pictures of the inside. Thank you for the help!
If this is an amazing deal: Using a white (so you don't risk transferring colour) cloth, gently press cold water with a bit of grease cutting dish detergent mixed in it into the stain, then do the same plain water to get the soap out. I use this dish detergent method for all textiles, I use this for nearly everything including getting oily shawarma sauce out of a wool skit.
If it's not a great deal, I would hold off and wait for another bag without the stain.

Not really to me, no. The box and receipt are useless and I expect my bags to come with dust bags unless they’re vintage. I’d rather pay another $100-$150 more for one without a stained lining. Maybe for others it’d be worth it.
