Hello everyone,
I'm not exactly sure where I saw you chatting about a type of bag I have been looking for. I'm not sure how to describe it. It's a long roll shape or baguette shape with flat sides. I believe it had straps to be carried by hand only, but not completely sure. It was made of a crinkle leather type material. A seller on Ebay had one a year or two ago and I was thinking about buying it, I kept reminding myself how many bags I have and waited until it was sold. I just can't get this bag off of my mind. If any of you know what bag I am talking about please help me to figure out how to search for one on Ebay. The searches I have done have returned nothing similar and I'm starting to think it's a rare bag. It seems like the chat I saw mentioned that maybe 100 had been produced. Anyone have a photo or any idea how I can find this bag? Sorry, if I sound a little crazy, but I do feel a little obsessed. My Coach illness is getting the better of me.. lol Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance if you can help me figure out a way to make a reasonable search.

What do you ladies think about bags made in Costa Rica? That Waverly didn't sell and I noticed it was made in CR. I'm new at posting here so I hope I'm not making a mess of it. I hope to figure it all out soon.

Costa Rican bags are fine. Some of them have leather that is even nicer than that of some US bags. Turkish bags are usually nice too. Usually the style is more important than where the bag was made in terms of quality.

However, you should be aware that Soho and Lightweights bags don't have the same thick leather as classic Coach. They tend to fade and are much harder to rehab.

Got my Sonoma satchel today. She is STUNNING! I even got a dustbag with it (from the Madison collection, but still)! Was NOT expecting that. Also, the seller stuffed the inside of the bag with paper to help it hold its shape. I took all the paper out then quickly stuffed some back in before taking the shots, so that's why she may look a bit crumpled. I wasn't very meticulous with the stuffing. LOL She is the perfect red and in immaculate condition. So, so happy! :yahoo:

Here are some pics!
