I was able to relist within the time frame, but they still have a handling fee.
Also, I don’t get back the shipping fee, the taxes, and the authentication fee.
Between all those and the handling fee they charge, I lose about $88.
It’s OK. I’d rather use that platform than sending to a reseller, and I think it might be nicer than eBay.
Ah, well that sucks...
 
Question for those of you with bronze purses, do you find you have a hard time styling them? I’m looking at a deep bronze bag and wondering if I’d have trouble pairing it with my wardrobe.
I carry my bronze bags a lot. I have a small Bronze shoulder that I carry as my ready grab bag (now switched to the orange metallic larger shoulder for more room), and a bronze Day. I consider bronze to be a neutral color, and I can carry it year long. It goes well with most colors, blacks, navies, reds, whites/ivories, and of course browns. I wouldn't immediately pair it with purples, sky blues or lighter greens maybe. Otherwise, it's a versatile color, and the Bal bronze is not obnoxious.

Also, this isn't necessarily directed at you, but just want to give everyone heads up that there is currently what LOOKS LIKE a bronze Work on ebay, but it's not. It's actually a 06 Truffle. The photos are insanely deceptive.

These photos that are using a ton of light really are deceptive. I'm waiting on a Balenciaga bag from Japan that I'm guessing is dark navy in reality, but I had initially assumed was a metallic blue just based on how much light was thrown on the bag in the photos.

There are some listings of pure black bags that look like metallic dark blue based only on the light they've thrown on a glossy black bag. The gloss picks up and reflects whatever color light that hits it.

Yes, and here's a cheaper listing of the same bag, with a more realistic first photo, though they don't take lower offers.

Wow what a beautiful bag. I really want a brown one like that, maybe I'll buy it? :graucho: Thanks for posting.
