I'm so proud of myself! I let a bag go on eBay that I had been planning to buy. If anyone saw it, it was the really pretty pre-creed crescent bag with the metal tag. The last photo of the auction had a gold necklace and lemons on the bag which made it look so much more beautiful to me, for whatever odd reason. I loved the color and the patina. I've watched that bag get re-listed several times with no bids but this time buyers took notice and it sold for $80. I knew it was a style that was unlikely to carry but I wanted it for the color and the metal tag. I have to say that since I finally bought my orange Courier I feel like I can stop looking. I'm done. I can clear my watch list and just feel content with what I have. That's pretty awesome.

This is how I feel after nabbing a red Court. That was a huge check off my list and now I am content to just scroll without the frustration of what I want not being there.

I'm feeling the same. Not a vintage, but I've wanted a large leather red Carly for easily a decade. I own it in black and would love it in red too. When I'd look, they were either entirely over priced or looked like they went through a war at the lower end of the price scale. Not even actively searching I found one that looks to be in amazing condition for $45. I feel like I can be content for a while and just sit back and see what is coming for Spring/Summer (I got a gift card for Christmas) and not get anything for a while. I am only allowing myself 2 vintage/preowned and 1 new this year. And by golly, I'm sticking to it!

Ooh, I love the Carly line too. The only thing about the red Carly that I didn't like is the different colorations of red on the strap and accent leather vs the bag leather. It's what kept me off the deep brown Carly, though I've been eyeballing a nice tan one for awhile now.

I didn't see the movie until I was well out of my childhood, but I always loved the theme song and ALWAYS loved Barret Oliver (first saw him in D.A.R.Y.L.). What a little cutie he was. Noah looks like he invested in a few tattoo parlors in the years since the movie came out. Did you happen to see Season 3 of Stranger Things by any chance? Neverending Story plays a key role!

I've noticed the color difference on some of the reds. The one I got doesn't seem to be noticable, it looks pretty even, color wise. If it's off by a shade or two that won't bother me so much. I have the medium size in red (which is an even red color all around) but it's just too small for me, now I need to unload it!

LOL...I hear of everyone pleased they have sold a bag..."Where , Where!"...but dont know what they sell under.

I typically sell them to people I know locally. They usually message/text me to see what I want to unload and have gotten tired of :lol: I have sold on Ebay, but it's been a while. I need to sell about nine bags total, so I most likely will go back to Ebay soon.

Thanks for the tip, spirangle! Unfortunately (or fortunately?) I don’t live near a border town. I didn’t know about the forwarding service before though so I’d be curious to see what they charge. Do you have one you would recommend?

Sorry, no recommendation. I live near the border so I just drive across and pick up my stuff in WA state. I googled the address that my buyer from QC provided on Ebay, and it turns out it's just Ebay's global shipping program address. (I have this feature turned on because I sell some brands that are better known in EU than North America.)
