Ladies congrats for your new bags
Here other pics of my Anthra GGH Part Time compared with Officier GSH Midday!
Hope this helps to see the real colour that is very hard to capture!!!!
Pics by me

hellokitty that's gorgy! and kelsbags, I'm shocked that T&D bags are better than authentic Bals...but I am cool with it, haha! The other forum would be pissed.

Speaking of which...this thread is on the news now. My husband sent me a link to an article that mentions this thread and Jacky and Catty and Joy...PM me if you want the link

 

[amethyst_sparkle]

found the article with a simple google search. wow. somehow I doubt Joy and Catty both willingly and knowingly participated in an "interview" with Reuters. sounds to me like these writers Melanie Lee and Doug Palmer pretended to be customers and duped our sellers into answering questions as to whether or not they fear being caught... this is just another reason why we should not be giving out seller info to the seemingly innocuous newbies who PM us raving about our "beautiful bags".

in other news, I received my A. Wang Rocco mini in Luggage from Jacky and just got around to taking pics. it's too small for my tastes but the color is spot on and the studs are on the bottom of the bag so I honestly couldn't care less if they're the studs from the quilted luggage version.

 

[kelsbags]

Oh that's scary about them being on the news!!!! I wouldn't want any of their info to get out there.
Boinquo....I'm sure those gals on the other forum would disagree. I've been on both sides....own authentic and real....Bal's leather differs so much....I've had so much variation with my authentics. T & D's is just as great if not better than a lot of the real ones I've had or gone through at Bal Las Vegas.

I just found the article as well, and do not believe they gave any sort of interview. It sounds bogus to me but, I do believe that the snakes did get their info to blast, and expose them. I agree that their info should not be given to newbies at any cost.

 

[MissLondon]

Now that article realls sucks. I dare any newbies to pm me for vendor info! Who can we trust?

 

[Alasse]

found the article by searching for the writer's names. Its all about news value since counterfeit products has been a huge problem. As a journalism student I would say that the writers phrased the questions in a "curious costumer point of view" so Joy and Catty would not suspect anything.
Maybe someone should inform them of the article?

I can only hope J doesn't change his site suddenly, I spent 2 weeks googling his site through his email address.

 

[Ilovebags]

Im in love with the 1973 suede gucci top handle bag. I was practically begging J to make it, he said they will consider it. If anyone else is interested please email him too.
P.S Glimmer, your bag persuaded me to get another pt from t&d, its STUNNING and I hope mine has the same leather as yours!

 

[ZenEssence]

They have been informed already.

Too late...J already changed the site!

amethyst_sparkle: thanks for the gorgeous pictures of your luggage! looks like jackys pictures of it don't do much justice. I agree with you on the studs.. not that big of a deal. kinda makes me wish he would make the quilted version though. yum!

Alasse: I know right! I did the same thing except for about a month, .

They have been informed already.

Too late...J already changed the site!

It's still working for me. I sent him an email just in case though...

 

[ZenEssence]

I received a new link from him just this morning, and yes the old one is still working as well...for now.

 

[carta]

wow. i can't believe that article. our vendors really have to be careful. i'm so surprised tnd didn't make it in the article. is it because their bags (and brand of choice) are under the radar?

i really like the trudy bag. adding myself to the list:

TRUDY TOTE in BLACK-Bagalicious, carta

 

[pinksequins]

ZenEssence: I got it.


By the way... speaking of aw. I really like the shade of this duffel. anyone familiar with it?

That totally blows about the Reuters article! Bummer!

On another note, my Rocco lost a stud on it's 3rd time out. I never did find it, so I can't just screw it back on. Has this happened to anybody else? I just emailed Jacky; I had a lot of QC issues on this last order.

 

[ZenEssence]

Sorry to hear about your QC issues. All you need to do is let J know, and he will send you extra studs. I have had hardware issues with purchases from him, and I let him know about it...he sent new hardware with no problems.

I doubt it too...I would even venture to say that they didn't even have contact with them...all rep sellers have to be so guarded, I just can't imagine them opening up like that to some stranger pretending to be a customer.

I can only speak for myself....but the big companies aren't losing any money from me...I would never buy the amount of auth's that I do rep's.

Ameythst...your Rocco is a nice looking bag! Sadly, the style is too small for my tastes also. They need to make large version!

 

[DiorKiss]

That Reuters article scared me. Too bad J changed his site again but for those of us that have his e-mailadress it shouldn't be that bad. Inconvenient, but better safe than sorry!

Does any one of you girls already have his new site? I don't like to keep bothering him with e-mails, I'm scared he'll get sick of me haha

 

[king6208]

I'm in search of an hermes evelyne Gm... anyone have a seller to recommend?

 

[coco109]

Jacky said that the Oak Leopard Alexa will be ready on
Friday. I hope it turned out well as I am excited for this
bag.

 

[xooey]

^^ Keeping my fingers crossed! I was about to ask him about it.
