Back story:I have metastatic breast cancer and lots of medical bills and a kid at Caltech. My husband is retitred. I inherited money, which goes to his school. I can't work although as I writer, I bring in some here and there.
After all is paid, I realized I have some extra money, and being a bag lover, I bought the pinnical of them. Chanel. Used. It's a bucket list item. I picked a PST because I'm 97 lbs, my lifestyle is very casual (mostly doctors appointments) and sometimes small trips and I think it will be perfect for me. I thought the GST would be too big and maybe heavy (I have a bad arm from surgery)
I bought a bag on Yoogis for 1100k, the PST. I thought it was a good price for a 2005. The bag didn't look like the photos, although it's not all Yoogis fault. They did disclose the corners but I didn't realize what I was looking at. There is also lines through it, The bag had clearly been stored by folding it in half, corners in. So across the crease there are bend marks, as there are across the back.
The PST is perfect for my lifestyle. But I'm unsure if the lines across the front will bother me, or if it's maybe to be as expected, like the corners. Yoogies is being kind-they think if it's stuffed and stored properly the corners may improve but didn't mention the rest.
I'm desperate for opinions from others. Would you carry this bag or take it back and hope for a better one?
Do you have tips and tricks for restoring it?
I'd really like to make a decision soon.
Yoogis has a tag on it which means I can't take it out for a spin without buying it. A few compliments might change my opinion.
Attached are photos. Would appreciate your thoughts about what you'd do if you were in my place?
If it's not ok to post this, please pull. I don't know where I should.
I can post more photos if anybody needs to see more
Thank you!!
