Naturellment! :yes: :biggrin:

Btw, I'm not keeping the black bracelet I asked you to auth. last week. I've decided to cut back on the pre-owned buying because it's just too d***n nerve wracking and too many disappointments where you then have to waste a lot of time and energy to return a SNAD item and sometimes you even have to fight for a refund.

I've asked a Bal store to find a black Classic Double Tour in the EU for me, if possible.

I’ve bought a couple from My Teresa and Matches Fashion, I think they deliver to the US.

did you see my response on it?
i totally know what you mean, besides, Bal bracelets don't cost that much to hunt for pre-loved, on sales they cost the same as in the secondary market, hense, why pre-owned??
unless it's a rare colour (like your UV, or my Coq) i see no point in fishing in eB@y

Yes, I did, but I was mulling the bracelet over so forgot to say thank you.

I agree with you 100%. I've had so many SNAD purchases lately :frown: It's true I've found some beautiful amazing conditions bags and SLG pre-owned, but now the SNAD:s are adding up and it takes so much time to return and in some cases make claims etc and it's just not worth the hassle. Just see the last one that I just PM:ed you. I would never have imagined that seller to send off a SNAD :sad: At least when you buy from a store you can return if something is damaged, which happens.

I’m so sorry about the rash of SNAD’s. That’s so frustrating.

Thank you :hbeat: I only buy like new, and ask specifically for confirmation of this and details in convos with sellers. How hard can it be?! Describing something like new, with store tags still attached and it arrives with black green spots on the front, a hole in the handle and lots of scratches. Not to mention folded/bent and crumpled in to a 1/3 too small box. And the seller is not in the EU so there are fees as well. Totally unnecessary if the seller had been up front as I wouldn't have bought the bag in the first place.

But with Bal it's just true that many of the best colours are from earlier years so it's hard not to buy when you finally find one of them that you've been looking for. And I have been very lucky with some of my purchases which is why, against better judgement, I keep trying, I guess :amuse: Comparing my Ultra Violet City with the one I received today, you wouldn't even think they're from the same brand.
