Agreed! RIP, Spectator style. Got to love the ambition, putting that girl up for sale. But then again, I bought a very well used Bleeker 9302, cause I just loved that style. And it had a hang tag. I'd probably buy a strip of leather if it had a hang tag, lol.

I thought for sure this one would be on the thread:

As much as I would love to try, I know I would hate it after. Some brave soul in here needs to take on the challenge!

It would make a very interesting pair with this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-VTG-D...797030?hash=item1ec87f2e66:g:UMkAAOSwjL5ZMPSF which I can't believe the asking price.

Hi all , yeah I know I am late to the party on these, thought I would pop in for a little binge posting. I could swear both of these red messes have been listed multiple times over the past 2 months or so. I just thought they got relisted cause they didn't sell. Rememer that *rivet bag*, the red shoulder sac with "adjustable" handles riveted down? That got listed a few times.

Anyone rehabbed this kind of leather before? My guess it needs to be dyed all over. Wdyt?

I think there was some talk recently about this style in a lighter color over on the RT. I don't know if it was the same leather. I sorta remember talk about burnished leather being harder to rehab. Is this burnished? It looks like it would need to be recolored all over. Definitely beyond my skill/adventure level : /

This one's been authenticated by @whateve, but I can't decide if I should buy it or not...I LOVE red, but how hard would it be to rehab it? Right now we are countering back and forth....thanks in advance for your thoughts

I have seen red Willis sell for much much higher price than listed. JMO but I think it's a fair price. I know no one wants to pay more if they can help it but remember PM takes 20% seller fee so I don't blame the seller for countering. I think it's a good deal as is. I paid the same for mine.

Okay....You're making me feel like I got quite a bargain. Goodness this is addictive! We did counter back and forth down to 35 plus the PM shipping....so I'm happy and I think she's happy too. Very excited. I'm going to be reaching out to you when it gets here about rehabbing those corners. I don't have any of the Obenauf's (sp?) Should I get that to have on hand or do you prefer something else for reds? I have a few other things in my little "toolkit": Leather Therapy, Apple, Blackrocks, and Lexol. (Realizing this question might should be in the Rehab thread...)

I don't think you need anything other than Leather Therapy and Blackrocks. You only need other stuff if the leather is really dry. Wait until you get it to decide.

I don't use anything but leather CPR on my red bags. The red dye usually bleeds so don't freak out and keep washing till water runs clear.
