I must be banned from too many returns because I haven't gotten an invite in months! Strange way to run a business!
I didn't know about their 5 items limit per category fur the longest time. And apparently keychains (?) count as leather goods! Their definition of categories are wonky too. It's super frustrating when you just want to hand over your money and they say no.

It’s so gorgeous!!!! Love it. So you are digging this style? :smile:. The handles (and everything) look pristine (be careful of them darkening, I had a red First where the handles were just starting to warm/darken a little so I sold it :sad:. Could not stand the idea of dark handles).

Yes yes! She is gorgeous! [emoji3514] I'm not sure I can avoid the darkening. I'll try to use the long strap more but it's not long enough for me. This is my second first. The size works great for me and the leather is amazingly soft! However, I think the design is faulty. They attached the handles on the bag leather. They really should have been attached higher up on the leather that runs across on top so as not to cause stress on the leather on the body of the bag. I see how the top piece just slouches behind the handles when carried by them. I'm afraid the leather will tear if the bag was fully loaded. Luckily I don't carry a ton, just the basics. I really wanted a town bag instead but the ones I like ( pre-2008) are currently out of my budget.
 
Hi. An update to my April bag splurge saga. I tried to return the signature Sutton to Macy’s but was told it was past the 30 day return period for Last Act items. I didn’t know about the 30 day period. I missed it by 3 days :(. I would try to sell it but I don’t have time to sell (for the rest of this year :(). My black bag was also a Last Act item — missed the return by 1 day. My DB tote was not a Last Act but I like it the best out of the three so I am not returning it.

So then, I ended up with 4 new bags in April (including my new Kristin). I am done for awhile. Still at a “reasonable” number of bags for a TPFer. Thanks for all your advice and sharing this saga with me :)
 
Sorry forgot to attach the pic of what I meant above. View attachment 4434568

So breathtakingly pretty :smile:. What color is it? I am not too worried about where the strap buckles attach to the bags. The only problem I remember is the edge coat cracking a bit on the top piece of leather behind the handles. Guess you like the older Chèvre better than the newer agneau or calfskin? Oh, you probably know that The Town came out around 2009/2010 so you probably won’t find one in the older Chèvre leather (maybe in the newer Chèvre ones which are pretty new, within the last few years). Anyways, congrats and enjoy this red beauty.

Thank you. Still in the learning process. [emoji16][emoji4] Bal newbie. [emoji38]
