I have purchased a lot from Poshmark recently. My favorite finds were my Longchamps and my Coach Kelsey. I prefer to buy Longchamp Le Pliage bags pre-owned, because they tend to scratch relatively easily and the corner wear is pretty bad. I'd rather not pay $100+ for a bag that wears like that!
Coach Kelsey Satchel ($25) and Longchamp Small Le Pliage ($16)
Also, got a Coach Large Wristlet 25 for $20!

I found this gorgeous anniversary Willis for $13.59; however, I'm not sure if it looks too worn or not. The interior is just fine. It'll be for my own personal use. I noticed there was this light stain along the leather. Does it look too worn, and can this stain be somehow removed? Thanks guys.

The leather was originally supposed to look a little worn, if I remember right. Some of these had waxed leather that looked like there were cracks where the dye didn't reach. I would stuff it and try to steam out those folds. Maybe a conditioner to blend in the stains.
Thank you for the suggestions, whateve! Your feedback is always appreciated. I'll definitely give it a shot. Luckily the stains are not that visible and they fall underneath the flap portion.
I can't go thrifting. I thrifted because I was stressed, now I'm just stressed. I miss my resale stores... 
So, now I'm going thru all of my thrifted jewelry and boxing up everything I know I will never wear. I collected a lot of James Avery. Anyway I will post, because I have nothing else to do. After I take of my 83 yr.old dad and my older sis, I'm pretty much sitting and decluttering.

I know I've uploaded some of the earrings, but this is my James Avery collection from thrifting. I'm certain I have more, I'm still going thru my jewelry.Oh my goodness Raven! That is one beautiful collection! I stink at finding jewelry.
I haven't found much lately. I slowed down about 2 months ago to take care of my dad and sis. I was buying bags but they became too expensive. I guess now I can slow down and see what I truly have.
I bought one used as well. It looked worn, but I think that it’s the soft leather. I think that it needed to be constructed of a firmer leather. These bags will all probably look like this eventually.
