Last evening there were several hundred items; today nothing.

I saw the same thing- they had a great deal(69% off) on the large colorblock tote ( in many colors- I wanted the Go Wild),but did not order it. I could still find the listings this morning-but the big page was gone it looked like it was somehow associated with Vera Bradley. Looks like it might have been for a limited time?

I only discovered the seller this week. I ordered a two-way tote that arrived within two days.

Hi Nana5- the store listing ""Verabradley"" is there- but not a single item is listed. I was able to order my tote this morning- must have been a limited time- maybe pre Mothers Day?

I was excited to be able to order the colorblock tote this morning- but didn't know that it would all be gone this evening. It was 19.00- and is listing for 34.50 on the Vera site.

Enjoy your tote- bet it was a great price!

Maybe they will have additional items in the future

I have the store as one of my "saved" or "watched" sellers. Forget the terminology but as you say, the store is empty. I'll keep checking back.

A possibility they ran into problems with either ebay or the Vera Bradley company.

I just checked on eBay, and Vera Bradley is a Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) member and eBay probably took the listings down.

There was nothing wrong with eBay. On occasion, Vera Bradley sells their own merchandise on eBay. I received an email letting me know about the sale. I believe it lasted for 3 days, and I think it ended Friday night.

The prices were phenomenal, up to 75% off on some items. There was also free shipping if you spent either $80 or $100 (can't remember which).

I bought a bunch of things....I know I'm crazy but I can't help it. Those prices were better than outlet prices. I had to stock up

Thanks Sunala for solving the mystery!

I will have to sign up for emails. The site looked like it was somehow connected to Vera Bradley- the prices were awesome and I agree better than the outlet. Enjoy your finds- I am waiting for my Go Wild colorblock and a price less than the summer totes at Target!

I'm sure the site I bought from was VB. The listings said ""buy direct from VB."" or something to that effect. Interesting that they would have a three-day only sale with hundreds of items and then remove them all. I'll sign up for emails.

The prices were crazy. I've never bought VB before so I wanted to see what the two-way tote looked like before ordering another item. But by the time, I went to order the other item/s the site was empty.

I know VB has been counterfeited, is it possible this site sold them? If it's too good to be true, there's a reason.

Just wondering.

Hi Kate, no these come direct from Vera Bradley. The VB stores have these sales when they're overstocked, I guess. This is about the third eBay sale I know about and that I participated in. If you read their feedback, some people had to contact them, and they gave their Vera Bradley toll-free phone number.

As far as I know, these are first quality eBay bags and accessories. You have to stock up while the getting's good.

To those of you that aren't on their mailing list, get on there fast. They will send you a discount coupon just for joining. They'll also send you a gift certificate for your birthday, and you'll hear about all the sales.

Go for it!
