I purchased this from CeeJay's Collection ❤️

Hi. Ceejay’s partner, Paul, consigned her bags. I am glad he chose Corey as she’s so knowledgeable about Balenciaga.

Vlad granted Paul limited access to read the messages left for her in the O.G. subforum so he knows how much she was loved. I have been in regular contact with Paul, checking on him and the cats. He’s doing better but is very lonely. They didn’t have children and have very few relatives. Ceejay‘s two sisters, Vianney and Martha call Paul every couple of weeks. Hard to believe it will be a year in July since she left us.
Thought everyone might want to see a pic of Paul and Claudia (left) along with her two sisters and their spouses.

There was a trade up option..???
Yes! You can check out a bag and select Trade-in as form of payment. I’ve done a few transactions with RDC this way when the funds are low haha. I sent her some of my designer bags/accessories and she values it as trade for what I bought. When I go over, it goes as Store Credit.
 
First, condolences to everyone on the loss of CeeJay. I have never carried Balenciaga (expensive, not a fan of lots of hardware and hanging doodads on my purses), but I do remember when she passed last year. Anyhow, I carried Coach for decades, lately it has been the soft tabby hobo, and while I like leather and the size, I decided to try something different. I picked up CeeJay's 2008 Black Cherry City, which arrived today, and this is one beautiful bag. Love, love, love the leather and the color, size is perfect, and handles and strap make more sense than on the tabby hobo. So pleased to be able to share this special memory of a special lady. Already changed out from my Coach, and ready to go once I clip the tag.
