You're a professional woman and you deserve a quality handbag! Cheap alternatives never do it for me, sadly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316614 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 16:14:45 +0000 Sara 316614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am trying to break my habit of buying lots of cheap bags and invest in quality ones instead. In the long run, it saves me money because whenever I spot something cheap that I like, I think about the nice bags I already have or the next one I am saving up for. If you love Kate Spade, keep an eye on the sale section of their website and join their mailing list. It seems like every month they will have a few days where you can take an extra 30% off their clearance items, which makes for some pretty great prices. Do you live near a T.J. Maxx? I've seen Kate Spade bags there for less than $200. You could also try <a href="http://www.bonanza.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.bonanza.com</a>. It's like eBay, but without the bidding. My husband bought me a bag from the site for Christmas for a third of what it would have cost retail, it was very slightly used but in beautiful condition. Here is a link to one of the red Kate Spade bags I found there:</p> <p><a href="http://www.bonanza.com/booths/chillicrabs/items/Kate_Spade_Chamonix_Olivia_Noel_Tote_Bag_Purse_Red" rel="nofollow">http://www.bonanza.com/booths/....._Purse_Red</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316463 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 09:24:34 +0000 Stephanie 316463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Years ago, when I was more naive (=more brave) I ordered two leather bags from China, and they were truly fantastic for the price. I still have them both. The e-bay feedback in that case, as in this case, was positive (and specifically mentioned the quality of the bags). I guess now you can wait for MaryK's feedback, too!</p> <p>Another thing you might do is look at shoplush.com. Those bags have a following here in the US because (I hear) the quality is reliable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316442 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 06:49:04 +0000 CocoLion 316442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can relate, I had my own red bag-ravation recently.</p> <p>I like the eBay bag as well as the Kate Spade bag from Nordstrom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316427 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 05:13:30 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 316427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fave of all the bags, without looking at price is the "High Fashion" Endless bag.</p> <p>I am a huge eBay advocate but I never buy from China. It just makes me nervous. That said, I did by some cabochons from Borneo and that worked out beautifully. So I dunno.</p> <p>If I'm going by both fashion and cost, the Coach bag on eBay is my pick. But if money were no object I'd say Endless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316426 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 05:08:43 +0000 Marley 316426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary is definitely a "diver." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316420 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 05:03:05 +0000 MsMary 316420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My son always says "fortune favors the bold!"

I love the eBay bag and have had good experiences buying jewelry and scarves from China. I am mightily tempted to get it in red AND yellow!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316395 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 04:29:11 +0000 catgirl 316395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Steph, what a gorgeous bag! I am looking for something a bit larger, in a satchel style. But I bet someone here would snap that baby up...</p> <p>There's a Coach style on e-bay I also loved:</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&#038;item=200578474338&#038;category=63852&#038;_trksid=p5197.c0.m619" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA.....97.c0.m619</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316381 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 04:01:39 +0000 Steph 316381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I didn't see the original Kate Spade you were interested in, so I can't comment on that. Of the bags you posted, I don't really love the styles of most, although I do really like the first bag. However, I would be reluctant to purchase from China, particularly because of questions in the past about what materials are used in some of their bags and clothing. </p> <p>I have no idea if you would be interested, but figured I should mention it. I have a brand new Kate Spade red bag that I purchased a few years ago (the tags are still on it!). However, I ended up getting another red purse when I stopped buying leather, and I never wore this Kate Spade. I keep meaning to put it up on eBay or selling it in some other way, but if you are interested, I would be happy to sell it to you. Unfortunately, it was expensive so I can't give it away, but I would obviously give you a very good discount. No idea if it is the style or size you would like. The first attached photo shows the color of the bag, but it is matte and not shiny like that at all (it's just glare from the flash on my camera). The second photo is not representative of the color (no flash this time), but it does show what the texture of the bag looks like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316352 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 02:43:16 +0000 modgrl 316352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't like either of the ones from endless. They are nowhere near as elegant as the kate spade bag. Did you check ebags? They have tons of red bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316341 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 02:22:45 +0000 Frances 316341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not a big spender, and I do like shopping on eBay. But I have no regrets whatsoever about the Kate Spade bags I've purchased. I love them to pieces. I actually purchased a used one on eBay, and it arrived in excellent condition. Maybe you can find a red KS bag you like there?</p> <p>Otherwise, my vote goes to the red KS Tompkins Square Billie satchel on sale at Nordstrom's. I stalked a green version of it online for a while last fall before a series of life problems overtook and distracted me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316321 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 02:03:31 +0000 Isabel 316321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I , like Sveta, really like the first one. Though, I would be very worried about doing business with someone so far away. With that said, the seller has good ratings and you go through PayPal.</p> <p>I am a firm believer, particularly for something as basic and often worn as a bag, that if you love it and leather and you can see yourself wearing it 10 years from now, then spend the money. I only go inexpensive on trendy bags that I know I won't use often or long.</p> <p>There, I didn't clear it up at all ! Glad you asked ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316320 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 02:03:28 +0000 Mo 316320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Rae and Angie. I love ebay and shop there so much it constitutes half my wardrobe. BUT, I get worried when it comes to overseas quality. I'd buy a real one gently used on ebay before I'd buy a mass produced copy from China.</p> <p>EDIT: I vote for the last one, the bowler bag on Endless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316312 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 01:57:27 +0000 Angie 316312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote splurge on a red bag, pass on the first one from China. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-bag-ony-ould-you-order-a-bag-like-this-from-ebay#post-316309 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 01:54:48 +0000 Sveta 316309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Honestly I like the first bag more than more expensive ones from endless: it is pretty simple and classic in form and red color is lovely. I also like Kate Spade bag.<br /> If you love the first bag I would go for it, if not I would save for the bag you love. I love my red Chromia bag and I am glad I splurged on it (although it was nothing as expensive as Kate Spade's) as it really makes my outfits more special. </p>
