Did anyone here happen to snag that orange Courier on Mercari for $62?? I will trade you my first born child for that bag. (Jk!! I have no kids, never will.) I am so sad I missed it. And I missed it by only 2 hours on Sunday! :crybaby: I might actually be grieving the loss of that bag. There had been one on eBay forever for $200 and soooooo many times I almost bought it but it was out of my price range. Now I wish I had just bought it. Dang it I'm sad.

Just venting here, thanks for listening.

So very sad....

Hi fellow purse lovers. @pruetjx encouraged me to share some photos of the beautiful Belmont Satchel once I rehabbed it. Well, I started right away and she’s ready for a photo shoot. The turn lock has a scratch in it and I didn’t want to damage the leather in the polishing process. I took a before and after shot and a few comparisons with my Court. It’s the closest in size to anything else I own. Thank you for letting me share and thanks @pruetjx for the encouragement. :)

Nope, I'm not fond of the courier, cool bag but not for me, however I saw it 20 minutes after it sold. Lucky duck whoever got it. Though I've seen reeeeelly good stuff on mercari. Someone got a pony for $45.

Okay, lol, then house . . .
I feel like my most interesting buys thus far have been a Winnie for $4 at a flea market and a gorgeous Ace Satchel in Cornflower/Flax (forgive me for a lapse in going contemporary ), just under $100 shipped.
Cmon @Morgan_Bellini , share your most interesting score so far, to cheer up while you are waiting for that HG!
Anyone else??

I am a bottom feeder in general, but my biggest wins were $1 Abbie and $4 Sheridan Sumter in good condition but lacking shoulder strap. That was before vintage Coach became cool. Other than that, among the stuff I got for $40 or less shipped: 2 Couriers (one near perfect in blue, one in rough shape), an early version of a duffle (with the seams in the middle), red Gracie, brown Copley, celadon Deauville.

I love the look but I can't make the couriers work for me as a crossbody. I wish the strap was just few more inches longer!
