Ladies, I'm having a ricky crisis and as silly as it sounds, this is the only place I can vent. I had purchased a bordeaux 33 a few months ago (in a post-break up shopping madness) and as much as I fell in love with it, ended up returning thanks to actually looking at my credit card statement. Fast forward to this week when I found a gorgeous royal blue ricky for $1100 on Tradesy. Well it arrived today, and the moment I pulled it out of the box it became clear it was NOT authentic. The silver stamp was in the wrong font and crooked, various "RL"s that should have been stamped around the bag weren't there, and it was made with some sort of low grade pebbled leather.

It's getting sent back to Tradesy as we speak, but I'm just so heartbroken that the deal I thought I'd scored on my dream bag was in fact too good to be true. Not to mention the total creep factor that this person now has my home address!

Other than RL sales (once in a blue moon) have any of you found authentic ricky's under $2000 anywhere?

I did once. I bought my daughter an authentic one on eBay. Seller didn't know what it was.

Thank you all! I'll have to keep an eye on eBay and not let the Tradesy debacle get to me. Here's hoping my bag is out there somewhere!

Who's a pretty boy then? My new pewter Ricky is! I took pictures both inside and outside because the colour is so different in different lights.


Now I have to pack him away in order to have him surprise me on Christmas morning.
If anyone is interested, Ricky bags are AU$1000 (US$717) cheaper on Ralph Lauren's Australian website than they are on the US website.
