In 2011, I had to sell my Beige GHW GST to put myself through the last semester of college. i promised myself i will eventually buy back. After that semester (successfully finishing my degree) i moved to Hong Kong, where living expenses were way too high for a fresh grad, and by the time I went back to the store to purchase the GST in 2015, they have discontinued it.
(even dug up this post on FB to show my husband
)
I spent 2 years of searching in the internet, at 2nd hand shops, consignment shops, etc. They were either the wrong hardware color, or in not too ideal conditions. I gave up for a while and forgot about it, but then 2 weeks ago I decided to look again, and was able to locate this NEVER BEEN USED Beige GHW GST at anns fabulous finds !!!! I could not believe my eyes!! It was more expensive than the Beige GHW GST on the market, and almost $1000 USD more expensive than when i purchased it in 2010, but but it is in immaculate condition.
Also, this bag is a sign of my hard work and sacrifices FINALLY paying off! It reminds me that sacrifices are temporary.
After being in touch with AFF for a week, I finally made this beauty mine. It travelled all the way from Michigan to HK and arrived after 5 days of obsessive tracking and refreshing on the USPS site.
THIS IS LITERALLY A DREAM COME TRUE FOR ME!!! thank you AFF for reuniting me with this. Thanks for letting me share TPF!
PS. THE STICKERS ARE STILL ON ALL OF THE HARDWARE!!!! The universe delivered me a BRAND NEW discontinued bag!!!

Love my GST! Glad my state of Michigan can provide! Ahha. AFF is located in a very wealthy city where everywhere you go people are dressed in brand names from top to bottom. I looked at the price you got it for and if it makes you feel better, it's still cheaper than what it cost the person who bought it. I bought it in 2013 for $2900 plus tax so it came out to ~$3200 USD back then.
