@Boehm Collector wrote:@stevieb @handygal2 @Bird mama ... Not going to say who I will vote for because I don't want this to turn into a political argument. Suffice it to say I feel really good about voting for my candidate this year.
@Boehm Collector... All I can say is it must be nice...
Sooooooo... while I'm the very first one to agree we need not always talk handbags, especially since some of us are fading out in that arena, I do want to redirect us away from, as Baba Wawa would say, the pwesidential ewection (ahem)... lest we bring down wrath upon us all... Let's just let those particular chips fall where they may... Instead, here's my saga... And this is a saga, so bear with me if you're at all interested... I'm entitling it 'where QVC falls on its face', by stevieb...
I've long had my eye on this 'overnighter' from Frye...
No, I don't need an over night bag but liked the metallic accents on this bag, (which also comes in solid black at an even more reduced price), and is NOT leather, but is trimmed in leather... It's actually a coated fabric of some sort and, especially given the size, is not too heavy... Anyway, despite being called an overnighter, the bag isn't so large that it couldn't be used as a purse but it could also be used as a carry on, business case, whatever... I don't need any of the above, but liked the look and the compartments...
This bag is on clearance with the Q, but at a price that's still ridiculously high for an older bag... Virtually every other retailers that carried this bag, dropped the price markedly and cleared it out... Meanwhile, the Q is still asking close to $200 for it, though shipping has tended to be free... On a few occasions, QVC has listed it as a 'special' and dropped the price into my comfort zone, but I never struck while the iron was hot, assuming it would show up again... Well, (too) long story short, I got tired of waiting so did a little hunting and lo and behold, found it elsewhere at a nicely reduced price with free shipping and no 'now you see it - now you don't' sale pricing... The moral of my story is if QVC would just quit playing these time limited pricing games, they'd have sold me this bag long ago... As it is, I purchased it elsewhere, it arrived within four days and I'm liking it just fine...

@stevieb 
I have been checking out this very same bag!! Love the Brass you chose and it pays to Scout around! 
Great story (Baba Wawa 
), super cool looking bag and all around good score. Glad to hear it's not too heavy. And, I see the back can unzip in two places making it a luggage sleeve to go over the handle of a suitcase. Now you're ready to roll with it, girl. With the air is safer, it's time to fire up that jet of yours and get outta town for awhile! 
In the meantime, it looks to be a really neat bag to take around, especially now going into fall with that Brass color!! Enjoy, EEL
