Hello ladies,
I was caught off guard and offered my first croc B35. It is matte porosus Rouge H with gold hardware. I was not expecting this at all. I get to go view it soon and make a final decision. I've spent the weekend researching all I can about crocs. I knew nothing about exotic leathers and all my birkins are togo. I've learned a lot, especially about avoiding water. The bag is beautiful and I can easily afford any price point, but I'm nervous since I wasn't that educated on crocs nor prepared to be offered it. I knew someday I would strive for a croc bag, but I wasn't expecting this week.... next year was my goal, so the offer really shocked me. I'm loving the look of both matte and shiny crocs, with shiny definitely being my kind of extra-ness lol. But the matte is dreamy as well. On a scale of 1-10, if shiny is a 10 to my liking for rouge H, the matte is a close 8.5-9. I think I was offered this bag because I requested a deep red Kelly or Birkin with gold hardware for this semester, along with blacks and grays. I'm also wondering if a B35 is too big for exotic? My birkins are all B35 and B30 in sizes, and I wear both sizes with same amount of love. Although it is easier for me to grab and go with my B30, I do have more B35s than B30s.
In all, I'm worried this may be an expensive impulse buy that I can afford to pass on for now. The suddenness of the offer and knowing how hard it is to be offered another exotic, is throwing me for a loop. Is this a rare must have offer that I should instantly grab? OR an offer that is easier to come by and not exactly a must have gem in the exotic arena? Also, does anyone know the exact price? I've searched the forum but haven't found anything. I'm sure its in the $50ks- $60ks range before tax. Thanks
