All my latest buys have been less than $500! I'm really finding myself less and less inclined to spend more than $500.
Vintage Coach Copley, $168
Cavin Klein backpack, $70
Massaccesi custom Selene, $470
Not nearly as good as Simplyput 's finds tho!

Beautiful bags, especially the Massaccesi! I love the color, I love his bags. Someday! Did you have to wait long for it? There are so many beautiful leathers and styles to choose from, I stalk that thread a lot!

Thanks so much! I took my time dreaming up the bag and deciding if it was the perfect tote to me! Once I decided to commit to save for the bag, I emailed back and forth with Marco Massaccesi and got his opinions to finalize the design. After that, I waited a few weeks for a sale and once I placed my order, it shipped after 3 weeks in production and the shipping took less than a week :) definitely join in the thread if you can ever commit! :)

Wow! I love the bags, especially the Miu Miu hobo! Great finds!
Thank you. I think this might be my first miu miu handbag in my thrifting career. [emoji173]I have found miu miu shoes plenty of times. The store had michael kors handbags for $59.99 behind the counter that day. I think like two or three of them so i walked to the back and saw this miu miu. I was surprised. I was checking tags to make sure it was authentic. I asked a cashier to hold it because i had to go out to my vehicle to get my money. This woman in the parking lot starts asking me about my hair and the salon i use. Lol. I was trying to get back in the store before...lol. aaah

Slightly ot.... fun tip:

The reason some stores use 99 the price tag is to "trick" (not sure if that is the correct word) to make your brain believe they are not paying a dollar. So you didn't pay $50, you really paid $49.99. [emoji6]

We have a similar store here, and Michael Kors and Coach bags are always behind the counter, but no other more expensive designer bags are, because I guess they haven't heard of them?

That’s how I got my Alexander Wang Rockie for $30 and Dita sunglasses (Galore style) for $10. I don’t think that the thrift store knew what they had. We all know how much a Wang costs. I researched the sunglasses, and they were $295 new.
