Here is a Longchamp Medium Le Pliage Neo tote/bag/purse in Chalk, which is a champagne-like beige color. I'd say that the color has gold undertones with a hint of red. Some pictures might show more red than others because the neo fabric is shiny and because, as you can see in some pictures, the sun was shining VERY brightly. I tried to compensate for it as much as possible when taking the photos, and I just spent well over 3 hours editing the photos, so basically, my the time I took is way more than I'll make on this bag, even with a buy-it-now purchase. :(
The only other bags on eBay in this color and size are one used one and one listed at nearly the original price! The used one is listed at my starting price for my auction listing; why buy used when you can buy new? :)
The bag retailed for $245 + tax (approximately $262).
100% authentic; no need to ask any questions about that, because I've shown the receipt with matching UPCs and return labels!
Please save yourself (and me) time and refrain from making ridiculously low offers. This only went so low in stores. I pay retail prices; eBay takes 10%; PayPal takes 3%, so my fees are generally over $20. Please don't bother offering $105, or what someone did - $50! Used ones sell for over $100, as do fakes. I'm not being rude but being realistic.
Please understand that my prices are fair and based upon what I spend, eBay's fees, and other sellers' posting of the same/similar items (and only so that I can protect my investments); I appreciate you understanding this. Again, I also take REAL pictures with a REAL camera and often go through 200 pictures to get the right color, right angle, and do not post blurry pictures, as well as show you ALL the authenticity hallmarks! I also have shown you the receipt to PROVE authenticity.
eBay requires a starting price and a buy-it-now to be 30% apart from each other (e.g., the buy-it-now must be 1.3 times higher than the starting price). I did not artificially inflate the buy-it-now, but you may think it looks high based on the starting price; thank you for understanding eBay's rules and that I do not gouge buyers. And especially with this listing, please be considerate of the amount of time that I have invested in trying to be as color-accurate as possible for you, unlike other sellers who post blurry pictures, pictures that are horrifically-off and taken with a flash, a completely different color in each picture, etc.
*Please note I photographed the bag both with different white balance settings and shutter speeds to try to capture the color, so please take that into account in the photos. Again, I was fighting an extremely strong sun. I did my best to represent it, but there will ALWAYS be differences between monitors, phones, etc., too. Thank you!
I am always open to discounts on buy-it-now prices, so please ask!

The not-so-fun stuff:
The Real Deal
I purchase my items at high-end department stores in the immediate New York City area (I work in the City and live in Westchester County), or sometimes from the brand's/manufacturer's website. Honesty is my number one priority, and I am simply passing on deals I find to others to supplement my income to pay my school loans. I sell current-season items that are always brand-new, with tags, receipt shown, unless otherwise noted (and almost always from my personal collection or that of a family member, so always trusted). I am not a dealer, do not have any "connections," and nothing is ever "off-the-truck." I simply find deals and sales and pass them along to you, verifying authenticity by showing a matching receipt and tags, so you never have to worry about things being "professionally authenticated" or anything like that.
I do my best to give accurate descriptions, but I'm sure you understand that humans make mistakes! I shop on eBay, too, and I know what it's like to get something that isn't what you think you ordered. I generally buy things that I'd like to buy myself and honestly disclose flaws (if any). If you are unhappy, please contact me prior to leaving feedback so that I can try to make it right; I do accept returns if I have grossly misstated the description of an item, less shipping costs, within 14 days of delivery, as long as they are in the same condition they are received, and all tags are intact.
Shipping
I normally ship by the next business day after funds are received, and if there is a reason why I am unable to do so, I will contact you. I also cannot be responsible for any import taxes, duties, or other money due at customs if you are a foreign customer; they are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying (I am a member of eBay's global shipping program).
Reserve Pricing
My reserve prices are fair and based upon what I spend, eBay's fees, and other sellers' posting of the same/similar items (and only so that I can protect my investments); I appreciate you understanding this.
Returns
Again, I'm sorry, but I cannot accept returns, unless I have grossly misstated the description of an item.
Questions
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! Again, I am always open to negotiating a reduced buy-it-now price; please inquire!
All of my items come from a pet- and smoke-free home. ("My" dog lives at my parents' house 1,200 miles away. :) ) Thank you for your interest.
