Unboxing: Damaged Fendi Spy Bag
The Fendi Spy Bag has been on my radar ever since I purchased a dupe of one off Canal Street in NYC when I was in college. At the time I didn't even know enough about handbags to know that it was a dupe of anything...I just liked the bag. I finally decided to give the real thing a try. Unfortunately, this one was damaged. The reseller did the right thing and allowed me to return it, even though it was final sale, because the damage was not disclosed in the listing.

Unboxing: Louis Vuitton Facettes Bag Charm
I purchased this item preloved from Fashionphile a few years ago to save $50 off retail but that was early on in my my Louis Vuitton collection journey and, as time passed, I wished I had purchased it new so it would be in new condition. The one I selected from Fashionphile has some scratches and plating wear. This year I decided the time was now so I sold my preloved charm and repurchased it brand new from Louis Vuitton. In the end, when I total all that I spent and what I made selling the first one, I ended up paying over retail but that was one of the learning experiences that I enjoy being able to share with you. No regrets.
