Oh, this is the bag I saw at Decadestwo last year and posted in the D & S thread! I remember Thithi checked it out and saw that the handles were cut off. Glad it made its way to a good home.

TYVM!!!!!

Well, dork that I am, I did not notice the missing handles in seller's pics...(I BINed it when Decades listed it on the bay...), so wasn't I surprised when it arrived! The ebay rep at Decades claimed she had no idea that there was anything wrong w/ the bag, but after I sent her a ton of pics, she understood. I was able to get a very fair partial refund, so I decided to keep the bag - plus, I was so enchanted by the color!

My theory about the handle removal is this: I think the owner felt they were too short for her liking and decided to make punky cuff bracelets out of them! lol - - That's my wacky theory, and I'm stickin' to it!

I want desperately to be in the Sweet Punk Club. Someday maybe I will meet the Debbie I've coveted for so long.

Congratulations to the gals who have hunted and purchased these gorgeous bags! I am so impressed by Matchka's collection.

I did not get any of the bags when they first came out for R 06 - -they were all very expensive, as you know... I think I got my first SP bag in 2007 - - (I don't have that one any longer), and then it went on from there. And let's see...... am I still looking? Sure! I don't have a Debbie, and would love to have one.... a black one, of course, but I'm not totally picky about that. I know they are super rare, plus SO many people want one!!

Also, the color block bags that came out at the same time, and have the same shapes and names as the SPs are very cool, but I never ever seen one up for sale....
