Thanks for the heads up. I checked the as is earlier and it was not up top in the new arrivals.

I purchased a blush when they were listed a few weeks ago. I received the bag folded in half lengthwise. It had a deep crease lengthwise across the front of the bag. I tried everything and couldn't get it out. Not really pink, either. I was disappointed and it went back. Hope you don't get it. It wasn't good quality and did not reflect the bag I saw on TV and in the demo video,

Wish the orange would show up. It does from time to time and I keep thinking it's the same bag that goes out and gets sent back, but I'd like to give it a try. I had one when new and sent it back because there was an odd but small streak in the leather, which was not a flaw and not damage but was completely natural. Still, I didn't cotton to it... I'd also prefer the 'as is' price. Maybe I'll finally give the black a try.

If I weren't on a handbag diet, I would definitely get the espresso lizard at the as is price. But, I'll be good... for now

Not always. Some of them were simply returned , etc... I've gotten some perfect bags from as-is and then too, I've gotten the occasional loser.

I don't know... at that price I might be tempted to capitulate...

Had they been on EP, they'd have all come home to mama, but they weren't so I decided to let the Q keep two of them!

Nice! I liked this first one too - it's better for every day use vs the doublet I ordered but this one was not on easy pay so I couldn't get it, given my other monthly payments.... Call me crazy but I actually decided to order that amazingly beautiful turquoise link bracelet.... well, I have 3 months to figure out how to pay for it, haha, plus for one easy payment I'll get it home to see if it's really worth the price..... (???)

So, um, exactly how much jewelry DID you buy? Every time I read one of your posts something else crops up...

Let's see, the ring, the earrings, a necklace (or was it two...) and now a bracelet... and I'd bet there's even more... Now, whatever are you going to do when the "it" bag surfaces? You know, fall is prime time for beautiful handbags...

stevieb — Tue, 19 Aug 2014 01:34:05 GMT

I sort of wish I had gotten the middle ring too, but as you say, no EP... which was a bummer. They really shouldn't have limited the EP to the most costly items... And really, there's no reason for them to have raised all their prices on these pieces across the board. Pretty clearly they were making a profit on them at the prices they were offering or they wouldn't have been offering them!

Hahaha....well, the earrings were cheap. Only $41 with free shipping so that doesn't even count! It was in exchange for my easy pay of $51 for the oryany bag that's going back Then one of the necklaces was in exchange for the overall price of the oryany bag which is going back The nugget necklace was practically free, so I had to get it and super affordable on easy pay, so practically does not count either Now, the ring and the bracelet .....they are supposed to be my 35th birthday gift.....but I may not even keep any of them if I don't like them..... and all but earrings don't arrive until November 22, so I can always cancel my order if I decide I see a bag I absolutely have to have In the meantime I'm interviewing for a few positions which should either reduce my expenses or increase my income, or both if I'm lucky. So there, purse & jewelry police! Satisfied??

Well, I think the prices of rings went up by about $20, so you can always save up over 3-4 months and come back for this ring you like good luck! Hahaha

Your logic is fascinating... Almost like a Q host... I think you better have this station deleted from your cable line-up...

So other than the turquoise necklace, what other necklace did you get... and about the turquoise bracelet, are we talking the one that was like seven hundred bills and change?

Oh and by the way, you DO know that December has more than one birthstone, right... ?
