Okay, here is my sharing about purchasing the PRADA Medium Prada Galleria Saffiano Leather Bag.
So, I’ve been eyeing this PRADA Medium Prada Galleria Saffiano Leather Bag for a while now. You know, the classic one, super chic. I finally decided, screw it, I’m gonna treat myself! Started looking around online, ’cause who goes to actual stores anymore, right?
First, I browsed some used-stuff websites in South Africa. Those websites sell secondhand luxury goods. I figured I might find a good deal there. I searched a lot, using keywords like “Accessories Sunglasses Prada” and “Handbags Purses Prada”. They got tons of stuff, but nothing really caught my eye. Either the condition wasn’t great, or the price was still too high, or it just wasn’t the exact bag I wanted.
Then, I did a random search and it led me to a gaming website – Nexon. I was like, what the heck? Bags on a gaming site? It was weird, but hey, I was desperate. Turns out they have nothing about bags. I guess someone just randomly put the wrong information on the internet. Waste of time.
- I felt so frustrated. Looked everywhere, nothing really worked.
Next, I checked out an online fashion shop from China called SHEIN. I saw some promotions, like a 45,000 coupon thing for new members and 4,000 off for the first purchase, plus free shipping. Sweet! They claim to have all fashion items. It got me excited for a sec, but nope. They sell a lot, for sure, but no luck with my Prada bag. Most of them are just fast fashion stuff, not exactly what I was looking for.
After that, I went to a Thai online store. I don’t even know the store’s name, the website is all in Thai. They have different categories, like new arrivals, special deals, women’s clothing, and swimwear. Spent some time clicking around, using Google Translate like a madman. Still, nothing. I mean, they have some nice stuff, but not my dream Prada bag.
So yeah, that was my little adventure. I was looking for a secondhand one, but I checked everywhere from South Africa to China to Thailand, but I could not find the perfect one. It took me a lot of time. I almost want to give up. But finally, I decided to go to the official store and bought a brand-new one. I spent a lot, but I finally got my dream bag!
Takeaway
- Sometimes, the hunt for a good deal is just a big waste of time.
- Sometimes, you gotta just bite the bullet and buy the darn thing new.
Anyway, that’s my story. Hope you enjoyed my little shopping journey. Maybe it will help you avoid these, or maybe not. Who knows?
