Handbags

[VenturaHighway]

I got this pretty bag at my Magic Shop (consignment shop) for $8.00  I never bought any of his bags here on the Q. But I did buy one at my Magic Shop a couple of years ago. This leather is so soft.

Does anyone know the style name of this bag? Thanks

Does anyone else still have some of his bags? If so, how have they held up?

Never had an interest in his or is his wife's bags....but good for you on that deal.

i just picked up one of his bags at the thrift store last week. 

a small crossbody bag in a pretty orange/red color. 

yes, the leather on his bags are very nice. 

i got mine for $5, but its much smaller. good score for you.

@VenturaHighway  I don't know the style name of the bag.  I did buy one of his bags years ago however the leather was so supple, it drove me nuts (no structure).  I gave the bag to my sister.

I never purchased any of his bags nor his wife's.  I did read some feedback on this forum with complaints of his handbags.  If yours is okay then don't worry.  Bruce and his wife made a fast dollar and left town!!!!!

Love the color.

Wow!  What a bargain for such a rich and saturated color bag.  Very nice, indeed.   I bought one of his hobo bags about 2 years ago and love, love, love it.  The leather is so supple.  Found it at Marshalls.  Congrats!

@VenturaHighwayI have just one of his bags, but it's a much smaller crossbody.  It's nicely structured and is holding up well - no signs of wear after several years.

My only complaint is the same complaint I have about almost any leather bag -  they are nearly all heavier than I'm happy carrying.  It's been about 5 years now since I bought even a medium-size leather bag in any brand - cotton and nylon are now my choices. Fortunately, I don't dress for work!

Beautiful bag; I hope the color doesn't rub off on clothing.  As I recall there were some problems with that.  I'd do a test with a white rag before using.

Thanks everyone for your posts  Sounds like there may be several problems with his bags. I will test the bag for color rub-off. That would be a bad situation on nice clothes. Thanks again
