I got maise cuz I liked the style but when I saw the Cindy I had the same exact thoughts... "What was I thinking?!" Lol. I was able to sell mine for $200 on eBay. I had a putty grey color but I wanted baby pink! You'll love Cindy! What color do u want?

I called my Macy's today and they said Riley would come out in fall in medium in maroon and dark green and gray etc. not sure if they knew what they were talking about, but medium peanut was sold out. I'll call another location tomorrow to see if they have it!

For cash back I use e bates or top cash back

I called two macys near me they dont have medium riley either. What a bummer! I suppose it'll be Cindy or EW Hamilton
 
Good info. Maroon and Dark Green!!!! I've been waiting on a green shade. Must start saving now.......:smile1:

If they made a darker gray I'd be all over it...[emoji7][emoji7] peanut is a year round color though right?!

Can you go to Macy's in person to try them on? That's usually what determines it for me:) or maybe you'll end up getting them both but for now get the Hamilton since it's different than the shape of Maise?

I can tomorrow since I work close to a mall. But for the sake of the sale I think I'll go with the Hamilton. Does ebay charge fees for selling or takes a percentage?

Yes it does, and so does Paypal. Then you have to factor in shipping costs, but it depends on how much you charge the buyer for it. It's def better than Poshmark since Posh takes 20% and the buyers there always want to negotiate much lower than what the items are worth. I only use Posh for clothes and shoes I don't care about..I get tons of lowball offers on my bags so I prefer ebay :)

I use this ebay paypal calculator to calculate how much I would get back:

Thanks. What did you list yours for? I'm new to this ideally I would like to get 200 for it. Did you pay for shipping or the buyer?

I think I started it off around 99 and then people started to bid on it.. but you'd have to be okay with potentially losing it for a certain price, but lower prices attract bidders/watchers. You can also just set a buy it now price for $200. I think I charged buyer for shipping, maybe $10 or so, priority flat rate shipping

Yes, I agree. eBay is the best market for handbags. Makes me so mad though, how many fakes I see listed on eBay! Puts us in the same circle and makes it hard for buyers to trust eBay. They really need to be more diligent about allowing so many fakes on their site. I also HATE their 180 day return policy!!! Good grief! Anyone can buy a bag, use it for 6 months and return it??!! I saw that as a bad problem and sure enough, I had buyers contacting me 3 months later wanting to do a return! Fortunately they had left me positive feedback already so eBay didn't allow it, but I had to go through the 'process' of disputing the return and what a pain. Even with all of these kinds of ridiculous polices, they are still the best venue, where you get the best price for selling bags.

MK is so hot on ebay. I get a kick out of the bidding wars! lol! These women are literally fighting to win these bags! Most of my bags get over 40+ bids on them! Is crazy! I never get less that 30 bids!
 
Ladies I need opinions this would be my first MK purchase. My first was a Christmas present---Jet set logo tote
I'm debating against Riley small in watermelon or the Hamilton E/W in watermelon or fuschia . Anyone have these handbags?!
For me , this choice is easy! The RILEY, hands down! It is such a gorgeous bag and it is certainly more functional. It has a huge outer slip pocket on the back which is so great for your cell, or things you need quick access to. It also has the zip top closure which I prefer to totes, because it prevents your belongings from falling out of the bag, should the bag fly off your car seat, or something like that. The Hamilton has no outer pockets at all! Not only that. I flat out think the Riley is better looking. I see too many women wearing the Hamilton and who wants to look like everyone else? Not me! Be different! Get the Riley! Why mess around? Get the large! lol! The Riley is stunning!

Lol Cinthia well I went ahead and ordered the Hamilton. I do want the Riley I love that it has the outer pocket. That was one of the reasons I wanted it! If my bag sells on ebay Riley or Cindy will be the next purchase. What other colors does Riley come in?

I like the look of the Riley a bit more than the e/w Hamilton. That soft leather is gorgeous, and I like that it is more roomy, has a top zip, and an outer pocket. I'll be taking a second look at the Riley when the fall colors come out. I think I'm going to have lots of trouble choosing between a large Riley and a large Hamilton satchel. :nogood:

The large Hamilton is too big for me! But yes I agree I will definitely be looking at Riley for the fall.
