Terminology regarding the condition of the Vintage Handbags:
Please remember when buying vintage purses there are normally minor imperfections 
 unless these are very noticable or detract from the style or attractiveness of the item they are not normally mentioned.
LOOKING FOR PERFECTION - VINTAGE IS NOT FOR YOU!

(Excellent Condition)
Normal wear expected for age. Any problems are not easily visible.
(Gently Used)

(Rest assured I do not sell handbags that are not attractive or fit to carry.)
