uh... ebay is your best bet.

How do you throw out a bag by accident?

mkonowitch · 24-07-2005

i hate buying from ebay if i dont know the user ONLY sells real stuff.... any names that i can look for??

ok.. here's how i did it... i was at my beach house for 2 weeks... so i had it with me, and over the 2 weeks time i did some shopping so as i was packing to leave i dropped the bag into one of the shopping bags. we get home and im unpacking my stuff and putting away all the new goodies i had just bought, and as im doing that im unwrapping them from the tissue paper and such and putting all the trash into that bag. well what i didnt realize is that i had left the gucci bag in there too. it was so filled w/ trash i didnt see it. so we put out garbage(my fiance hates mess, we live together) and it gets picked up that following morning. that night after work were getting all of our stuff together to go riding and i go to my closet where all my bags always are... well its not there. so i stayed calm and waited until this weekend when i'd be back at my house... well i tore the place apart and its not there..

im sad but what can i do? i cant cry it wont bring the bag back... i jst want a new one. so im one sad girlie until i can replace it.

That sucks. I would die if I threw away my fav bag!

not so much my favorite bag, but honestly out of all my approx 100 bags it was the only useful one... i miss it.

I think eBay is your best bet for discontinued items, so long as you're a savvy shopper. I highly recommend the seller coco's closet (I bought a hard to find gucci from her and it's definitely authentic, in perfect condition (like it was never on display) and came beautifully packaged. and she's super nice. I was uncertain about the color because I had never seen it IRL and she offered to let me return it if I didn't like it (which of course I did). in the meantime, I'll keep my eyes peeled -- I love the hunt. good luck!

oh, I was operating under the assumption that this style has been discontinued. if it's still available then I agree, get it from the boutique.

buy the longchamp one. It's made very well and use the belt with my jeans when not on my bike.
