He was the "guest" authenticator here awhile back, wasn't he?:lol:

Well, to me the term "guest" implies that the person was invited to be there and that their presence was welcome. Neither of those qualifiers applied in this case. Even guests are expected to follow the house Rules (or at least READ the bloody things!). And when told by the "homeowner" that maybe he should leave, he kept coming back. Current status is Sofa King Banned under at least one ID. His daughter is still here somewhere.

The question previously here was already answered.

off topic update on my previous cat meltdown: while trying to cram her in a box today, I noticed her wound is healing. Were I not looking for it, I doubt I would have noticed. Turns out her feeder isn’t as useless as I thought and has been applying a spray to it. Which is good because the cat was not keen to be put in a box. She did however follow me home so I guess she wasn’t too miffed about our adventure this morning.

Random question: have any of you fine peoples been bullied by a seller? I do purchase LOW because (as most of you know) i like to customize.

A week ago I asked a seller who had some very dodgy pictures to please send me one of the creed. She refused and said "I gave you the info in the listing"
I told her that is all fine and dandy, but a picture of the creed helps me get the bag authenticated - I have purchased KO vintage "Coach" before. Silence for two days, then the item is no longer available and she messages me again offering to sell. I said I wouldn't purchase it unless I could see the creed, thank you for the offer.
Three days after that, she sends me a message saying "I don't understand people like you, no one protected me when I bought a fake Louis Vuitton. You want something for nothing...."

Um...you were the one selling it super cheap, I just asked to see the creed.... :frown::cursing:

Wow it's probably fake.

I wonder what happened there? Buyer's remorse? Maybe the buyer took a closer look at the photos.

AND IT'S 20 DOLLARS MORE THAN BEFORE! He probably realized that he forgot to charge extra for all that verdigris. Anyone who hasn't seen it before, take a look, especially at the closeup of the top, and look inside the loops at the ends of the top handle as well as the other hardware. And then read the description:
"Some signs of use but No damage, stains, or odors anywhere. Very CLEAN. Professionally Authenticated!"

And I love this part:
"A SUPER Nice hard to find Vintage Bag. This Bag Was $279.99 new plus tax and shipping WHEN THEY MADE THEM!!"
There are no catalog pics anywhere so how does he know what the original msrp was? And since when has Coach had retail prices ending in 99 cents?


Here's the previous "the item is no longer available" listing.

Damn, this is better than a soap opera! Someone please pass the popcorn.

I wonder if he's the professional authenticator? Will he supply a certificate of professional authentication?

Hahaha, the seller just quoted me $209.99 for Silver Surfer even though I'm not even watching. Feeling very special and sorely tempted right now. /s

Offered you $210 on a $300 listing? That's 30% off, my friend. I'm lucky if I get 15% off offers. I am serious when I say I usually only get offers from sellers of 5 to 8% off and I was almost offended when I got a 1.8% off offer one time. It was less than $1 off the asking price. I mean honestly if I were willing to pay just 5% off a bag, I'd have already bought it at full price. But 30% off that silver nugget...it might not last too much longer. /s

I got a legacy ergo..sent me an offer of $5 off and I countered for more off. Im only learning how to judge offers and counter offers and might have been able to get it cheaper. They can only say no.

The offers I get do not have an option to counter. On eBay anyway. I have to wait out the 48 hours and then submit an offer to them and on the listings with no Make An Offer option, well I just forget about it.

Ok ladies, I am ready to confess, @Hyacinth I don’t have any popcorn to give you, but would recommend a good caramel cheddar mix (which sounds gross but is awesome) if you can find one...I bought the relisted Sherbourne bag. I hated to pay the extra $20 and to give that guy the business, but I wanted it, I want a project, I am bored and that is all I’ve got for reasons. Once it is here and rehabbed I plan to tag it on social with the Coach Original tag they want you to use if sporting true vintage or one of their modern inspired redos and see if Coach will weigh in.
