Sweet! Hope you got it! It sold!
Yep it sold to me! I offered $50.. just cause.. basically just because best offer was an option. I always offer $10 or $20 less just to save a little. I bought the crappy condtion one with many many holes/breaks in the edging for about $50. Now I'm not sure what I will do with that but I have used it many times so I don't regret it. I just always wished it didn't have so much piping damage. This style is one of my favourites due to its handy size. I just recently bought a brown one too and I love it! Haven't rehabbed it yet. Will have to post that baby to the rehab thread.
 
Wow look at this old girl. Wish I had $500 ish to spend on a bag ;)

For that much money, I think the seller could have put more effort into providing more pictures. Even if I wanted to spend that much, white doesn't do much for me.
Can't even start a bidding war with that! It's pretty rare but IDK.. I usually buy new bags if I'm going over $500. [emoji6]
The most I've ever spent on ebay for one item is just over $200.

Agreed, more photos definitely could help in deciding. Not listing enough photos makes the seller look lazy. Also she doesn't show the inside. Makes me wonder what is hiding in there.. [emoji848] and she doesn't bother to describe the condition either. Way too much to risk for something not returnable.

People photograph items like that in order to be purposely deceitful. I just sold an item with piping sticking out and lo and behold she's reselling it, using the authenticity card to mask the piping. Ridiculous.

Does she take returns? I don't take returns but I show all faults in pics that I can find so there are no surprises. To purposefully conceal a flaw and not take returns is indeed deceitful.

so my experience has been that if a bag has nasty surprises it can ALWAYS be returned; that's the Ebay guarantee. i had one such bag that was 'no return' and ebay approved it immediately for return

I understand. They have great customer service but I just don't want having to deal with all that. I say no returns but I do accept returns when it's completely my fault such as wrong descriptions and measurements etc.
 
I found this sad, sad purse on Facebook. Is there any hope for it and was there ever a Basic Bag model with double straps like this? Thanks

I think you could greatly improve it with rehabbing. Some of those deep scratches won't go away though, but since it is black, they will probably be easier to conceal. It is authentic, and all basic bags had double straps until fairly recently.

Thank you. The price is great too - $35 for a NYC! I'm very excited especially since it is difficult to find older Coach purses for fair prices in Canada.

I agree. I buy a lot on various platforms, not just bags, clothing, shoes etc. I move on if there aren't photos of the entire item, front, back, inside, out, bottom etc. and if the description is short and vague. Anything I sell has all that, and then some. And never had an issue with anything I've ever sold, so I must be doing something right!
 
Oh that's pretty! Love the color! My mom was looking for a specific shape and size wallet, and found one, with a bag. Both Coach madison. She got a good deal, we both have come to realize. If i remember correctly, she got both the bag and wallet for $75. The bag has some spots, but really only noticeable in bright sunlight. And she loves the wallet.

She then bought a brown madison bag.
