Took my first shot at a 'pre-owned' bag on ebay today. Everyone here seems to have good luck getting bags in great shape so thought I would take a shot. It's looks great in all the pics and I emailed questions so I hope I get lucky! Won a Madison Sadie in glitter python for $104 shipped. Not the most amazing deal in the world but I wanted this bag sooooo bad when it came out. I was on bedrest followed by a really long healing process after having my son so I never got to go check it out.

Oh that's really pretty. Congratulations! I got the shoulder bag twice and never could make it work for me. Now I have the wallet at least.

Thanks! I'm afraid it will be too big on me but knew I'd be kicking myself if I didn't go for it. I put my limit at $110 and told myself if I won it was worth the risk of it maybe being too big. It is pretty 'fancy' for my wardrobe too but I'm a sucker for python and glitter!

Congrats! I hope she's perfect! I think $104 is an excellent deal considering how much the bag was retail. I think that even if we pay prices comparable to outlet prices and the bags are NWT or EUC..it's a good deal, especially with the more expensive bags.
I saw your reply to Whateve about the glitter Python maybe being too fancy for your lifestyle. That bag will look fab with everything!! I often pair my fanciest bags with jeans and flip flops...lol.

Thanks! I will be a little nervous until I finally receive it. Seller said it's in great condition, with no scales lifting, and has a great leather smell (I was afraid it would smell like perfume). Hopefully I can match a lot to it and not worry about it being too fancy. In a SAHM so I rarely dress up anymore.

I never dress up anymore and I carry a wide variety of bags. Lately I've been making the bag the focal point of my outfit. I only returned the shoulder bag because it folded up oddly in the middle, not because it was too fancy for me. They made the bag too wide for the length of the shoulder drop - maybe if my shoulders were wider, I wouldn't have had that problem.

That's good to hear. I almost bid on one a few months ago that was over twice the price I got the Sadie for.

Ha, you beat out my last bid! Congrats, it's a gorgeous bag! I'm glad I was at least outbid by a tpfer. ;)

Congrats! I'm not sure if I've seen this one IRL but it looks like a beauty online! I agree with Whateve & iNeedCoffee about not needing to dress up to carry bags. I enjoy when the bag can be the statement! And, because as you mentioned being a SAHM, I say make every outing fancier just carrying a great bag along! :) Hope you'll post pics when it arrives!

Harley77 - Sounds like great deal to me, as long as the condition is what you expect it to be! I hope your experience is a good one. I buy and sell on eBay ( and other sites), and have had almost exclusively great transactions! I had one selfish jerk non-paying bidder this month, but that is SO rare! Just remember to ask questions, especially if the pics aren't very clear!

My glitter python sadie arrived a day early and she's perfect! Seller packaged it better than coach even does! I really am impressed with the whole experience. I have had a really rough week too so it was a very nice surprise that it came early.
