My perfect fall bag is here. The delivery was super fast and it came with a pack of extra tassels and also the tags were inside the bag. The leather is super super soft and silky… almost better than my 05 apple green.

The condition is really good, handles are almost perfect. The color is to die for and changes in different lights. It is a beautiful dark red Bordeauxy kind of color and screams fall. I think it will go with everything.

I am really happy with this bag. I hope that I am not too afraid to wear it.

Here are the pictures. She is currently empty but I will fill her and take her out later for school run.

What do you think?

Congratulations! It’s 06 grenat chèvre leather. This style fits so good on the shoulder! :love:

I wish I had seen these before I decided to return a recent eBay purchase I made
Last month, I made a spontaneous weekend purchased from one of those Tokyo resellers (where the same bag was listed by 4 different sellers) I could tell the bag was either dirty or faded or both and would need some work, but I wasn't prepared for HOW much work. I decided to return it rather than spend time & money to refurbish it, but after seeing this magnificent job you did on the black messenger I'm wondering if I gave up too soon (although I still think this bag was more faded/discolored than dirty)

This is the how the bag looked in photos included in the listing and a separate photo the seller sent to me (I actually got excited when I saw this 2nd pic!)

But THIS is what it actually looked like when it arrived :hrmm:
More grey or taupe than brown.
I wonder if that Pedag kit would have helped a little more than the suede brush & eraser I have (& tried using),

Oh, no!
There is NO way that is the same bag.
Reminds me of the mastic disaster I received, where the bag came to me looking like mustard.

I've been on the search for a work from 2005 for a bit now and snooping on the forum on what to look for. After two unsuccessful attempts (both orders were cancelled) this third time was the charm!

She's definitely super worn in but I love her regardless! I'm going to do another round of cleaning and conditioning. I can't believe this is the second Z tag F/W in Caramel I tried to buy this week. I found the bag locally and as an added surprise the seller offered me a city for an amazing deal.

This one's from S/S 2006. The leather on both of these really live up to the hype!

She’s been authenticated, so I can share her now. Jaune poussin city, kind of giving me Halloween vibes, I’m in love with this color. The seller said she went to Paris to buy this because the color was out of stock in Japan - nice life if you can get it!

Thanks to the seller's persistance, you now have this lovely. Works out in the end! :)

I wanted to show my latest two Bal purchases at once.
But only this squishy and super chewy 07 Rouille girl gets to play for now.
I missed this color after selling my Rouille Courier. The best "rusty" orange in my book. :heart:

You just needed to post ALL these photos ? They were killing me one after another. Absolutely my dream color. I have a weekender but it was in such a bad condition that LMB dyed it and repaired handles nicely. But it is dyed …. it is sturdier now for travel…but I wish to see again the beauty of a true rouille !

unfortunately, it was the same bag :frown:
They probably used a filter in the pics they originally used in the listing because not even the mirror was as brown as they showed. The last pic they sent me (when I asked them to confirm they had the bag) looks like they changed the brightness/contrast to make it look darker than it was
