Wow! Ok we really need to hear the story on your $10.79 bag!!!

Ask and you shall receive!
I thrift constantly (5x a week) during the summer months as I do not have school. I went to Value Village at opening. I always go straight to the purse rack. This was crammed into the rack. At first I thought it wasn’t authentic ( the date code looks weirdly uneven) but I decided to take a chance anyway. I was also hyper-focused on the New-with-tags Kate Spade I found for $13.49. It didn’t click until I really started looking at it. I posted it on an LV group to which the resounding reply was that it was authentic. I got the authentication back yesterday - it’s 100 percent real! Sadly not everyone has been excited for me about this. I posted my white whale find on a thrift group. People were incredibly disrespectful, claiming the bag was a replica for ridiculous reasons based upon a singular picture. Although it still hurts that my fellow thrifters could turn against me like that, all that matters is I know it is authentic!!

I’d also like to mention that it’s probably only been used a handful of times. I’m shocked that the staff members didn’t recognize it.
