It is not burgundy unfortunately. It's definitely the flat brown mahogany without the burgundy undertones. When I first unboxed it, I thought it was black and the smell of the oil or whatever the seller used to condition the leather was overpowering! It is, however, in beautiful condition with deliciously soft leather. The piping is pristine and the interior is very clean. I did expect a brighter mahogany as was shown in the listing and the smell was a complete surprise. I took another photo without the camera flash and in bright light. I'm not sure how I feel about it but if I can get rid of the stink it's definitely a keeper. I really do love this style.

The Maghony color is very nice too, amazing condition. I think the smell will air out eventually. Did you ask the seller about the cause of smell?
 
Can you guys share how you store your bags? I installed a shelf for the bags that don’t fit in my closet but The shelf isn’t big enough... I was thinking of using my coach gift boxes and just stacking them one on top of the other into a tower! I have no room for more furniture or else Id get a chest or something. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Some of mine are stored in 2 glass door cabinets( some bags are inside cardboard boxes stacked at bottom, display the ones just for eye candy at top shelves ). The ones get used recently are hanging on a coat tree, the ones for rotation are stored in 2 purse hanging organizers ( 8 for each organizer), then the ones hardly used are inside cardboard boxes and stacked on the top shelves in the closet. I really need to decide which to keep, which to let go.

wow your collection is massive! I have 11 bags in my permanent keep pile and then 9 in my rehab pile to sell. Id need to get another room to store as much as you haha! the purse organizers seem like a good idea but I don’t have anywhere to hang them. Im gonna go purchase the ikea shelf today and hope for the best :)
