Did you find this item to be costly? Let us review the pricing details: The item includes FREE SHIPPING, which is applicable only within the United States. While I welcome international buyers, please contact me in advance to discuss potential adjustments, as international shipping is not complimentary. Please note that I operate several e-commerce stores, each incurring varying selling fees. Consequently, the asking price you see reflects these factors, meaning the net amount received will be considerably lower once shipping costs and fees are accounted for. Does this clarification make sense? If you're interested in this item, BUY it NOW since I revise descriptions and prices yearly. Prices for vintage items may increase due to their rarity and nostalgic value. This navy blue handbag is a genuine vintage piece from the 1970s, notable for its unique style and excellent condition, with only minor scratches and not very noticeable. It has six expandable compartments, all clean, and is likely made of vinyl, maintained with leather conditioner. There's a slight vintage odor inside, typical for its age. The bag's back features a hump that flattens when a bulky item is placed in the last compartment. Aside from cleaning or enhancing the background, I do not use Photoshop or filters on my images. My items for sale come from a non-smoker, perfume-free owner without pets household. SELLER POLICY ARE THE FOLLOWING: PLEASE READ I encourage you to ask questions before purchasing if you have any. Avoid impulsive decisions. I have a NO-RETURN policy due to past issues with returns in poor condition and unrecoverable shipping fees. I encourage using the platform's zoom feature for detailed inspection before purchase. Packages are typically shipped the same day if ordered before 1:00 p.m., or the following day if not. Thank you for visiting my store, and take care!
