What style bag, we'll keep an eye open for it. Edit. I see someone else asked already and it's been answered. :smile: Here's something like that, also expensive: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115746324599

That bag is on all three selling platforms at three different prices. It's been posted for months--and on my watch lists for that long, too. At one point, ebay had a coupon for designer bags above a certain price and that would have made the price on that bag more reasonable. Today I'm working on feeling that I dodged a bullet for that kind of money. I've never paid that much for any bag and maybe it's good I missed it. I will post a photo of what I'm carrying today. Not vintage but a factory re-issue of that bag from 2016.

The craziness of yesterday deserves a moment. My granddaughter had just barfed all over my new car. My husband was cleaning up the car while I was cleaning up her. The clock was ticking down on the auction, so I put in what I thought was an unbeatable amount. Haha! The planets certainly aligned to keep my money in my pocket. (Granddaughter is fine. Discovered the hard way that she shouldn't be reading in a moving car).

As Scarlett O'Hara said: Tomorrow is another day!

I find that sellers sometimes put outlandish prices on but they don't really expect to receive that much. If it's been months and she hasn't sold the bag she might be open to negotiation. You could contact her and make a reasonable offer and see what happens.

The remake is beautiful! I like the BT trim better than the tabac of the original.

Sorry about your car. I have three kids. Once all three threw up in the backseat. The baby in the middle threw up on one that was next to her and that made the other two throw up. They were strapped in their car seats so couldn't move out of the way. We were about 1/2 hour from home - a very long half hour!

Oh my gosh this sounds like a scene from a movie practically. You were all probably very miserable at the time but at least it’s a story now? I don’t know how you held it together after three of them threw up… in your shoes, I would have been the fourth one to lose my cookies :lol:

Glad to hear your granddaughter is okay, but yes… those circumstances would definitely add to the stress of trying to win any bid you had your eye on!

Didn’t know how to tag you exactly, so just replying to one of your posts here. My Ink Ergo Pocket Zip rehabbed so easily. She looks new! I wanted to take of picture of her in my bike basket as a tribute to you, but my basket is wicker and I couldn’t situate her quite right! So here she is on the back deck.
We just call it Blavy!
