I read a lot about bluefly.com and as I am from the UK this is new to me so I had a look. There are some fab H shoes on there that I really like, but there are bags too, some that I couldn't get from a store here.

I am sure that some of you have had reservations about this site in the past. Ignoring the fact that shopping in a real store is much much more fun....Would you buy from bluefly?

I would consider it if it was something I really wanted and couldn't find elsewhere. Still but I would want anyone else to go into the transaction aware of their issues:
- They have authenticy issues since they buy from "resellers" they don't authenticate what they buy. If it is a fake you can always return it but...
- They're really slow at processing returns (I've waited 8 weeks before)
- If you need to use customer service you will be one the phone for a while and it may take several calls to resolve the situation.

Also, keep your tracking number for any returns since they have lost mine before. I don't know if I would have gotten my money back without it.

i don't think they make the p-b in swift (too soft) -- i believe only box, vache liegee and epsom. here's a closeup of the leather -- i don't think it looks like vl or epsom, but it could be wishful thinking on my part. we shall see...

guilty! and i just received it. good news: it is indeed box (my fave). the bad news: it really is tiny (bluefly describes it as 13" wide but that includes the pooched out sides, so it's really more like 11" wide. one bummer is that the bluefly tag (which you have to leave on to return) is attached to two handles so i can't really open the bag (though i did peek inside and the leather is really nice). will take some pics later.

kicks if you do a search you can see somewhere how much this bag holds - I had a small red one and loved the size and it truly held quite a bit! Good for going out or anytime - it opens WIDE which made it nice - I kind of wouldn't mind one in black lol!!!

bloody camera is broken again so no pics (forgive the brit speak -- just watched a gordon ramsay-athon). shoes, i did check out la van's pics of her p-b and while i agree that it holds more than it seems, i worry that overall, the bag might be a bit too dainty for the likes of me. you said you had a red one -- can i ask why you let her go? my dilemma now is that due to the bluefly tag, i can't even put my things inside to (1) see if they will fit and (2) get a better idea of what this bag is like to carry. decisions, decisions.

kicks, I have one just like it and love it! It will hold what I put into my Birkin 30 although, of course, the PB is a little smaller.

As for dainty....don't worry about it! Because it's smaller, you won't run into things with it....like the Birkin. You can hand/hold it and guide it in front of you as you walk, or hold it up close to you or even under the arm.... leave the top unzipped for easy access ( you'll love love the interior ) when you are at your desk or at home.

Of course this is how I feel....and if you feel differently, then.....but it's a neat little bag and mine is black box calf too!
