If you look at the 2nd small picture where the bag is being held open, you can see the white and green Vera Bradley tag :-) I was wondering that myself :-)
For everyone we yes it is a reall Vera Bradley :) if you are not satisfied you may return it:) no it is not a makeup bag it is a nice small day bag :) enjoy ! Because I used to love this purse :) and no stains, and lastly I am not sure what shade it is in:) hope this helped:)
I think the shipping could be lower just by putting it in a padded envelope and be around $5 or less. Is that a possibility? Your ibids would go a lot higher if the shipping wasn't a bit high and the post office gives you a free tracking number now. Love this purse too, especially the color. If you could send a msg if you could lower the shipping or post it on this link I think bidders would think $5 to be fair and you shouldn't be out of pocket on it which is the hard part with shipping. I've read so many posts lately, do you take paypal? That really helps also since paypal will cover any disputes even though I believe they take a certain percentage, about 50 or 60 cents if you changed it to $5. Will definitely do a lot more bidding if you've set up a paypal account, lol!!! Adorable item!!!!
