Two recent ebay finds came today. The lizard madeline was only $75 and I'm very happy with the condition. The cafe carryall had more wear than I would have considered "excellent," but she rehabbed nicely.
Niiiice finds! That Maddie for $75??? She was $698 or $798 FP, wasn't she? I have the N/S version in the same color and the E/W in the beige lizard. ( both outlet finds ) I need to pull them both out and put them back in rotation.
What color is the Cafe Carryall? Glad she cleaned up well for you!
Congrats on your new goodies!
Thanks! I'm pretty thrilled with the Maddie for that price especially. I like this size soo much better than the regular size. Those few extra inches make such a difference for me. The Cafe is peach rose. That was basically the only reason I bought it. I needed peach rose in my life again after regretting selling my pr Phoebe. I'm really not liking the lack of symmetry with this style (the weird design of the compartments freaks me out), so I'm not sure if I'm going to hang onto it. :/
I feel the SAME way about the regular sized Maddie. I wasn't loving them, but the large is aaaawesome. I haven't played with a Café Carry-all. How are the compartments asymetrical? I really wanted a Café Carry-all in the camo print( or Phoebe ), but just never got one.
I don't blame you at all for missing peach rose, it's a beautiful color. I have a cosmetic bag in that color.![]()
It's got two zips then a snap compartment. If I don't have it stuffed like crazy it flops all over itself (not in a good smooshy way) and just looks weird. Plus the snap twists, and unlike on Phoebe it doesn't hide easily.
Thanks! Not like I need another bag or anything!![]()
Very nice finds! $75 for that Madeline is a great deal, and I love that color! Are you able to compare the color to, say, the teal Sydney or Lindsay? I have both of those, but if it's more turquoise than teal... LOL! Gorgeous!Two recent ebay finds came today. The lizard madeline was only $75 and I'm very happy with the condition.

ineedcoffee - Thanks so much for the pics! They really do show the difference in tone. If I stumble across a bargain on one, I won't hesitate!I'm not Quinna, ( obvi..lol ) but I do own the blue lizard Maddie N/S satchel, so hope you don't mind me answering. The blue is more of a denim/indigo blue. Here are pictures with and without flash. Hope this helps.

Because I can't pass up a good deal on a woven satchel. $50 for this one. Was this color just called grey? It's not the mushroom color for sure, but I wasn't sure about the other official color names gor these.
