Maybe not yellow? What is this color called?

Yellow Sonoma? I can't remember seeing Sonoma in yellow.

Maybe not called yellow, it is like mustard color.
ETA: not rehabed yet

What can I say other than a long big sigh. We North of the border people stuck with global shipping program and import duty from eBay, and no Mercari. Poshmark Canada has less than 1/10th inventory compare with U.S. Whenever you gals is showing your awesome scores from everywhere, I am watching them with my glowing green eyes, full of envy...

Same...*sigh*

My Gramercy Satchel didn't work out. It was listed as like new in excellent condition but it's far from it. It's well used and abused. It's also very dirty. I am sharing pics just in case the seller lists it again with only 3 pics again.

How do you lovely folks clean a light colored leather bag other than dunking it?

Yes. It was relisted with the same pics and same "like new" description.

I'm assuming the bag is only lightly soiled. I would mix a solution of warm water, a few drops of dish soap (Dawn is good) and about 1/4 tsp vinegar. Dampen a cloth and wipe the outside surfaces. Then, take a clean cloth dampened with plain water and wipe again. Let dry. Then I'd condition with Leather CPR followed by Renapur (my new favorite finish coat). For the inside, I'd vacuum it out, then wipe with a cloth dampened with plain white vinegar.

Thank you and I just realized I posted this in the vintage thread instead of rehab. Sorry all!

That's okay. We used to just have the rehab thread. We discussed vintage in that thread until someone realized it deserved its own thread. I think almost everyone who reads one of these threads reads the other.

This worked beautifully by the way.

Still in awe as to how you all find these wonderful colours.
