Hi guys! I've had so much fun reading your ebay stories.... there really are some crazy ebay buyers and sellers out there!!! I'm new here so here's my (long) story.....
So ever since the Louis Vuitton tobago line came out I have always wanted the shoe bag!! But it was something like £1000 about ($2k) and at the time I was still in school so there was no chance I could buy one then. So after saving up for months I started watching ebay since they only had the tobago holdalls left in stores and then..... one day one popped up on ebay!!! I had it authenticated and then bought it for $3k from a seller!! WOOOO!! I was so happy, I paid more than the retail price but I didn't care, I wanted this bag so much. I paid the seller for the bag and their excessive postage to make sure they send it first class recorded (signed for) so I would recieve it safely. I work from 9-6 everyday so I knew that I wouldn't be at home to sign for it as my post always came at about 10am when i'm in work. I knew I would have to collect it from the Post Office and bring ID with me. About 2 weeks after buying the bag I was starting to worry... it had not arrived . The next day I was walking home from work... I opened the main door to the apartment block (it's a communal area for the 24 apartments in the block) with the intercom and post boxes. Another resident was there checking for his mail.... and on the large table under all of the post boxes was a large brown box with my name on it... THIS CANNOT BE MY LV BAG!!!!! I ran up the stairs to my apartment to open the package..... and it was my tobago shoe bag. MY LIMITED EDITION TOBAGO SHOE BAG MADE FROM BEAUTIFUL DEER SKIN LEFT FOR ANYONE TO TAKE!!!! No signature required!!!! the bag was beautiful, so amazing . Straight away I e-mailed the seller and asked for a refund on postage! No reply so I just left it, I was just so glad to have my bag safe. The thought of my bag left there all day... anyone could have taken it!!
So guys that's my long story, hope it didn't bore you! lol
