So, I ordered this on eBay on Wednesday, and early this morning I was surprised to see that it still wasn't marked as shipped. I messaged the seller, and it turned out that she went away, but her husband shipped it and didn't report the tracking number. I checked the tracking number I now had, and, Whoo Hoo, it read "sorting complete." I got my package today, and, strictly speaking it was second hand, but, it is flawless. It looks untouched. It was listed at $175 or best offer; I offered $155, and the offer was accepted.
And now, ta daaaa! Just in time for National Handbag Day, here is my new Carrie Satchel in Apricot Twisted Leather:
What a beauty!

So I told whateve I'd post my recent bargains when I finally received them, so here they are:
Vachetta Borough (who is mid conditioning so if the color looks a little uneven, that's why) $127
I hadn't gotten a Borough though I always like them, this was on or near or top of the colors I wanted, so I snatched it. I don't think I could have done better on the price in this conditon. It was in carried, but very good condition, still in the "peachy pink" stage of vachetta aging. The conditioning I'm doing may have taken it into the tan stage, we'll see after everything soaks in.
Legacy Colorblock Candace, $60, barely looks like it's been carried:
65th Anniversary Legacy Leigh. Leigh had not been on my "want" list because the strap is so short, but I couldn't resist this for $47 shipped. It's in great condition, the sealant is just barely starting to lift on the top of the strap but it will be an easy fix. I think this is the Sunflower, not the Citron, but I'm not 100% sure.
They all came with the correct tassels/handtags etc, but no dustbags. Yay for badly listed bags!

Gorgeous! Great price too. What s that pedestal it is sitting on, petrified wood?
It's a little table; I think the exterior is acrylic. I put it with another one that has mirrored exterior:

Very pretty! I like the shape.

Wow all great deals! I've always wanted a vachetta bag. The Borough looks beautiful. For a long time I wanted a Leigh but I overcame that. Now you've got me thinking about getting one again!
Thanks! I have been doing the conditioner tricks to protect it, I think I just need to buff it out now and she's ready to roll!
Thanks! I have been trying to stay off the resale sites but I'm not doing so well.
I had been able to bypass Leigh, because I have one or two other legacy bags,
but I just couldn't by pass this unusual color at that price. I thought the strap would be too short but its not as bad as I thought it would be. This color is cool! I've decided it's probably Citron, not Sunflower as I originally thought. I searched posts here after I posted it and it's hard to tell from pictures, but this seems a little brighter. I confirmed it when I looked at the manufacture date, this was made in 04/07, and the Sunflower didn't come out till '08. I really lucked out, it's in nice shape.
Nice haul! Twins on the vachetta borough! If I remember correctly these were very limited, and I think there was only 100 made? I watched that auction too just for fun. I've gotten a lot of good under the radar stuff from them.
