Yes, and I think it's because everything is ridiculously priced and there are fewer and fewer finds worth posting here and jumping on.Does it seem unusually quiet around here lately?![]()

I kind of like the fortune cookie effect with the slouch in the middle. I agree the Giant hardware is where it is at with these bags and even with some colors on the regular city. I like a slouch lol.They are roomier, but if you don't like the fortune cookie effect on the City, it's worse on the PT. I'm generally not a fan of east-west bags but I love the PT with G21 hardware. I think the bigger studs and wider strap balance out the proportions of the PT, and I believe the handles are bit roomier on those as well. I can carry G21 PTs on the should by the handles.
You can say that again.Yes, and I think it's because everything is ridiculously priced and there are fewer and fewer finds worth posting here and jumping on.
We could try some convos that don’t require buying/selling — like shopping our closets, what we’re wearing with our bags, whats inside our bags or we could just take advantage of the topic free chat thread just to keep the conversations flowing with no-topic, “How’s the weather where you’re at?” Or “Whatcha up to today?”Yes, and I think it's because everything is ridiculously priced and there are fewer and fewer finds worth posting here and jumping on.
I think we do that, like we always have. The decrease in traffic is attributable to fewer finds. But we still stay in touch and chat.We could try some convos that don’t require buying/selling — like shopping our closets, what we’re wearing with our bags, whats inside our bags or we could just take advantage of the topic free chat thread just to keep the conversations flowing with no-topic, “How’s the weather where you’re at?” Or “Whatcha up to today?”![]()
I think the bussiest thread will become “which Bal you are wearing today “ ro showcase what we already have …. and we all have A LOT 🥰I think we do that, like we always have. The decrease in traffic is attributable to fewer finds. But we still stay in touch and chat.

I’m not sure if there’s a more recent thread, but here is one. Last post was from awhile back…I haven't looked yet, but has there ever been a "Whats Inside Your Balenciaga" thread?
We used to have one in the Marc Jacobs forum (long time ago) and it was really helpful to see what fit in the various styles/sizes (and also interesting to see what people carried and chose to share!)
I did notice more TRR commercials. I would say not so much the high end bags being 90% off but last year I scored a baby alpaca Brunello coat with silk lining for at least 90% off! Someone told me they probably sell retail for over 10k! His jeans retail for over 1k and I got a beautiful coat for the same price as his jeans sell for retail-crazy! It's a great coat and looks new!Anyone else (prob US-based) been seeing a ton of Real Real commercials on TV all of a sudden? They're hilarious, using these phrases like "up to 90% off retail" and "authenticated by true experts" and showing actual white-gloved humans painstakingly examining luxury items.
Boy, the things they get away with on TV nowadays...
I can't imagine what else it could be if it came back? Does it smoosh when you rub it between your fingers?Hey ladies, I would appreciate your advice. I bought a Part Time GGH (07 tomato, I think) from a VC seller. The listing didn't include photos of the interior. When I inspected the bag, I noticed some white powder on the lining. Thought it was dust, vacuumed the lining material, and the white powder was gone. Pfew. But the next day the white powder was back which makes me think it's MOLD. What do you think? Is it really mold? Should I try to get rid of it with vinegar or should I just return the bag? I didn't contact the seller yet. The bag is in excellent condition (and doesn't smell like mold), was fairly priced ($650) and it's really gorgeous. View attachment 6141420View attachment 6141421View attachment 6141422
No. Would you send it back or would you try to get rid of the mold? Thank you!!I can't imagine what else it could be if it came back? Does it smoosh when you rub it between your fingers?
Wouldn't mold be smooshy? Is it granular?No. Would you send it back or would you try to get rid of the mold? Thank you!!
