Slightly...? It looks like someone put it in the washer and dryer. Yikes.

Poor sad Kelly. I'd love to restore it. But not at the price of a NEW Kelly from the store!!!

Poor thing, this is a disaster. Dye gone wrong, not sure Doc could even fix it. Should have left it alone to patina and blend in. Now it is worthless.

This has been listed before and sold. I imagine the buyer was disappointed ...

Moi aussi!!Is it supposed to be a plus that it was her bag that is so trashed?

The bag is "preloved." I once came across a dealer in native American silver jewelry who wanted several hundred for a bracelet where the turquoise cab was cracked and fractured like a dog had chewed it. She held the thing to her heart, looked soulfully off into the distance, and proclaimed it "preloved."


Yup.

Yup.

In a sadistic kind of way.

I could have seen buying this for $25 and using as a bag during rain storms.

For $25 I would too. No harm done if a stripper and re-dye is a failure. Really can't get any worse. ha "wood" grain.

Yes. Tough love. Really tough love.

New bags are all alike; every unhappy bag is unhappy in its own way.

Think the previous owner said something like, "Every time you move tomorrow, I want you to be reminded that I’ve been here."

It almost seems sacrilegious to create an H bag that really blends into the furniture.
