Tough trade but worth it! I love my Couriers!

But that Berkley.. Wow! I want to touch it!
I now only have one Berkerly...a mahogany saddle...sold my black one on thursday. I just wasnt using the backpack as it didnt work for me. But have since bought a aqua drawstring backpack and its gorgeous. Photos tomorrow before I start its rehab.
 
Just wanted to warn everyone who browses Depop for vintage coach (or anything for that matter) that scam accounts have started popping up just like on Poshmark. The set up is always the same: no ratings, no followers, sell an assortment of stuff cheaper than market value & they all seem to have the same bio. Listings also state to pay via Depop only. PayPal apparently = canceled order. So before you quickly check out thinking you’ve found a good deal, take a moment to verify the seller doesn’t have any red flags like below.

Depop payment only:

I recognized the tangerine bag from a seller on Posh. They copy photos and everything. I don’t shop much on Posh or Depop.

Im still not sure how the scam really works :shrugs:. I guess Depop’s buyer protection isn’t very good & easily exploited? Man, I really hate scammers!

Speaking of scammers, It’s almost coming up on the one year anniversary of my mailbox getting broken-into over & over again! I remember talking about it on the forum. I was so worried that I was gonna become a victim of identity theft. I couldn’t eat, sleep or function for like a week while every worse case scenario played out in my head from all the mail I was missing. Luckily for me, the police actually caught them! They were an organized crime ring of people & were stealing mail across multiple towns & cities. I wouldn’t wish that feeling on anyone, it really sucks being scammed/robbed & not being able to do anything about it.

I'm so sorry this happened to you and that you've had to worry about it for so long.
I guess that is one of the reasons people switch to paperless.
I miss the days when we had the mailbox in our door. People couldn't steal your mail then. Eventually we will all have those group mailboxes at the end of the street that will need a key for access. I'm always worried someone will steal my mail or a package off my porch but I don't think it has ever happened. I had two ebay packages that never got to me but I suspect the carrier delivered them to the wrong address.

Definitely! It gave me enough of a wake up call to make everything paperless too haha. Now I have a wall calendar that I mark the bills on so I never forget to pay them. There‘s a part of me that’ll always be fearful about any future mail theft or checking my credit & seeing something that isn’t supposed to be there. I try to remind myself to only worry about it if/when it ever happens. I haven’t had packages stolen either. I don’t mind if something replaceable gets stolen but Id be sad if it were a htf coach bag or something lol

sorry to hear about what u have been suffering from!

As for the scam, I happened to know some details about how it works or at least some partial facts.
My friend has ordered from a scammer on Pm and she told me that the package was shipped and delivered somewhere near her address but she can't find it. So finnally Pm refunded her and considered the order got lost. Since the tracking shows that item was successfully delivered, the buyer will possibly get their money.
