    Just received a Kipling bag I won on EBay. "Brand New With Tags". There was a small,opened packet of Kleenex in one of the pockets although the tags were still attached and the handle was still folded with the closure on - all obviously reattached after being used! I had to laugh as seller forgot to check the pockets! I got it for a good price and I love it so not too bothered! The colour is gorgeous and the style "Zamor" not one I am familiar with so I'll just keep quiet lol!

    Now I look at it again, I think I was a bit harsh first time! The print is gorgeous - in places on the photo it looks faded, but it isn't faded at all, that must just be a trick of the light.

    The zips seem a bit better now as well. I think the main problem I will have is the smaller opening at the top, but that's not really a big deal. I do think the bag looks good, so I'm sure I'll be able to use it.

    Mine was ok too, I wouldn't say I was over the moon with it, but it is definitely usable and for the price I can't complain. The cicely I had from a different supplier was better, it was quite padded, with the interior pockets and key fob, although the interior wasn't as well finished, just have to see what the next one is like:rotfl:

    Edit: the one I had was a bit bigger, so nearer gabbie size

    Yes, I think so. I had a small Alvar which I returned as just too small so maybe nearer the larger one? (I've not seen one of those). They have a couple reduced at 'Posh Bags' if that helps.

    The background is black and the print is blue and pink with tiny bits of white. On the genuine bags it's called Soda Pop print, I think. Inside the main compartment it has 2 slot pockets for phones and a zip compartment, but no keyfob. I never use the keyfob anyway!

    When I ordered this one it was the first (and I thought only) seller who had this print - but a few days after I ordered it I did see 2 or 3 more with the same print.

    Thanks for that scaredy cat I don't really use the fob in my day to day bag either just my work bag so I can keep my Id card and fob safe.

    This must be a new shade I really like it though
