This bag is called the Manhattan GM. It is from the early 2000s. It was a very popular bag at the time.
I recommend getting the bag authenticated if you have any doubt about its origins.
There are numerous authentication services out there. Start with a Google search.
I have been searching for a Sac Shopping tote in good condition. I placed an offer on eBay and just purchased it It's coming from Japan, so the wait and tracking begin!
I haven't purchased any preloved bags in a year then in the past week I've purchased two! Just bought a pochette accessories from 1998! Is 20+ years "vintage"?
You will LOVE this cosmetic bag! This was my first ever LV purchase and I use it to carry my makeup on every trip we take! After looking at your inside I realized its time to clean mineJust picked up this vintage 1983 Trousse 28 for quite the steal! I love it!
It’s really is flawless. Seller mentioned black scuffs and pen marks. All came off in five minutes with a wet wipe! I really looked for one with a lining in a good condition, as I know they crumble quick once they start.
How to I care for the lining of this item? I want to make sure it lasts. Should I apply any apple conditioner? Or just treat it with a wet cloth from time to time?
Here’s mine
My sac shopping tote arrived today. I placed my order on Saturday and it arrived in 3 days from Japan! The quality of the bag is just incredible. The patina is perfect for a 20 year old bag...well was before I polished the brass and left little spots around the rivets! It's a warm honey patina. The inside is clean and no smell! I have to confess that I was thinking I shouldn't have passed on my NF GM but now I'm so glad I did. I wouldn't have found this bag. I also didn't know about this bag until I read about it here on TPF!
Lovely bag. Wow 3 days from Japan. May I know the Japanese seller you purchased the bag from?
Sure. Gallery Rare. I think it’s g-rare on eBay. The packaging was impressive. It came in a huge box with authenticity paperwork and a tag something like fashionphile does. No dust bag but it was was wrapped in plastic then cushioned in a ton of air paper. Most of the time when I receive something from Japan it’s just wrapped in bubble wrap and put in a mailing envelope! My bag was exactly as described. I like them because you can make offers. It was listed at $503.75 and I got it for $490. I offered low and that was the counter offer. I asked for a pic of the date code and they replied in 2 days. Super happy with the experience.
Thank you TXLVlove for sharing your experience. I purchased 3 items from 3 different Japanese sellers on eBay recently and they all shipped as you posted in bubble wrap.
