Hey ladies -- so I was just thinking today about if I'd ever be willing to buy a backup of a particular bag when I have so many others on my wishlist....what's your opinion?? any of you have backups? if so, of what?
Yep DITTO McC, except if I am going to use the bag a few days, she goes into dustbag right away at home, with all my stuff. I wont allow any light to touch her even a tiny bit when not in use.
I do have ONE HH backup because I am changing the hardware on one of them. There is another I'd like to have a backup for, but probably will never find ~ Saddle Inka.
There is one on Bonanzle for 150 OBO.Good idea. I always store them in a cover bag when not in use but haven't thought about when I use a bag a couple days in a row. They are stored away from light, but I think the dustcover protects the moisture and pliability of the leather - a thing to be considered in a semi-tropical climate. I admit I have been keeping my eye out for a black patent corc at a low enough price to snag as a backup. Though I treat bags gently, I would say that one gets more "tough wear" than any of the others because it is the bag I grab on rainy days.
oh, if only I had money now, I would get me another Havana in Chalk - i carry it so much
