"TROUT"
in GORGEOUS BLACK OSTRICH LEATHER
(genuine ostrich is always highly priced)
average Mulberry Ostrich Bag price for 2016 was £4,950 - some cost a lot more
RRP was around £4,500 for this bag
I have NEVER used it - JUST CAREFULLY STORED IT
SALES TAG INCLUDED AS WELL AS RECEIPT
I am a bagaholic & a great fan of Mulberry of which I have a large collection. However, I now have a debilitating illness & my lifestyle has changed & is limited so I don't get chance to use most of my fabulous bags.
I have 2 MULBERRY BAGS of THIS DESIGN. The other - a cream version - had its maiden voyage with me on a trip to The Seychelles. I loved it even more than I thought I would (the bag as well as the holiday!) & carried on using it for months afterwards. It receives many compliments & positive comments even from strangers
CODE REFERENCE: HH1530_389A100
N.B. photographed whilst bag was empty so it will not look as "full-bodied" as it would in use
I bought the other TROUT BAG from the MULBERRY store IN MANCHESTER but they did not have an allocation of this " OSTRICH TROUT" which was a LIMITED EDITION available only for a short time
VERY RARELY SEEN IN OSTRICH
when
taken by friends to see Bicester outlet village, I COULD NOT RESIST a
visit to the MULBERRY STORE there. I'd been so pleased with my cream
TROUT bag, I asked if they had any in stock (had tried other Mulberry
stores without success) & was thrilled to be shown this OSTRICH
TROUT. It was EXPENSIVE at £3,150 even from the official Mulberry outlet
but I couldn't resist!
I recently came across the RECEIPT so will happily include this to provide proof of purchase & cost
here is a rare chance to buy completely new & as it would come from the store
REALLY STUNNING - needs to be seen to appreciate fully
THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO JUSTICE TO THE BAG
all my bags have been "babied" & treasured
soft gold metal hardware
gold metal plaque on front of bag engraved with MULBERRY LOGO & "MULBERRY . . EST.1971"
held in place by typical MULBERRY logo rivets which are used throughout
woven top handle
detachable & adjustable cross-body strap
on close inspection with magnifying glass I noticed 2 very slight hairline scratches to this plaque but mention only as part of my policy of full declaration as they are not deep or significant
has full width/depth exterior slip pocket running along back of bag
opening front flap reveals 2 pockets in front of main compartment of bag - each taking up half the width of the bag
triple leather carry handle (strong but lightweight) has top layer of plaited leather - comfortable to hold (in my opninion)
soft suede black lining throughout
main compartment has slip pocket to front
back of compartment houses large zipped compartment trimmed in black leather
below inner compartment pocket zip is a black leather plaque bearing the name of "MULBERRY"
BUCKLED FRONT FLAP i.e. buckle effect fasteners each operated by a "postman's lock"
buckle straps are secured by circular balls bearing the MULBERRY TREE LOGO
signature D ring either side of bag holds the removable shoulder strap
the shoulder strap is adjustable by means of a buckle
a second D ring on one side can be used for keys & adds to the trim - placed below 1st D ring
on other side, in place of 2nd D ring is a circular metal disc engraved on 1 side with the Mulberry logo & on the other with the bag's unique serial number 1667483
WILL COME WITH MULBERRY DUSTCOVER & MULBERRY TAG PLUS MULBERRY GREY BOX with LOGO IF REQUIRED.
I may be able to provide a MULBERRY STOREBAG too
this really would make
an
EXTRA SPECIAL GIFT
this bag has THE LOOKS - excuding quality, class & style
the bag HAS BEEN NURTURED & NEVER USED (I have so many bags & not enough places to go!!). All are treated with Colonil for extra protection.
NEW & STOREFRESH
no signs of wear and tear - scratches, fading, blemishes etc apart from the very slight semi-hairline metal surface scratch mentioned earlier. Since I declare even the slightest deviation from perfection to avoid any disappointments, these are mostly insignificant. In my opinion, this will not spoil the bag or even be noticeable in general use
SO BID WITH CONFIDENCE
approximate measurements of 12.25" [31cm] wide x 10" [25.5 cm] high x 3.5" [9 cm] deep
I guarantee
the authenticity of this MULBERRY bag so please be assured that it is
genuine. All of my bags are authentic as I NEVER buy anything but the real thing.
The bag comes from a smoke-free home and I treat all of my luxury items with the
respect they deserve.
Please
feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding this item
or if you require further photographs of anything specific. If you prefer pics of anything specific by whatsapp please text me on 07973 102012.
** I aim to give a prompt service and will send
out the item to the successful bidder as soon as payment is cleared just
as I would expect if I was the buyer. So please BID WITH
CONFIDENCE knowing that you will be buying a genuine item from a
seller who believes in offering a quality service.
*** Postage will be £15.00 by Special Delivery (actual cost to me is more than this because of eBay & PayPal charges) including full insurance which is why the price is so high. Given the value & calibre of the bag, I will not post by a less secure
method BUT, to fit in with eBay rules, I have to state a postage price
with a maximum of £9.50 so I will list this as 1st Class Signed For but
please note I cannot honour this as it would be too risky & unfair
to both buyer & seller. Because of the value, I will only post
abroad by a secure postal service. To Europe will be £26.00 for Tracked or International Signed For depending on
availability. To US, CANADA & other countries outside Europe will
be £32.00 for Tracked or International Signed For
depending on availability. The postage may seem high but I need to ensure it includes full insurance . If it costs more, I will pay the difference; if I have over-estimated then I will send a partial postage refund. I do strive to be fair.
**** I expect to receive payment
within 72 hours of auction close unless by prior arrangement.
N.B. I check my items thoroughly when listing and disclose even the slightest variation from new. I therefore offer a refund only on grounds of authenticity issues of which I would expect to be informed upon receipt of the item & which would have to be verified by a qualified source & proof received within 7 days of this date. I offer this only because I KNOW that all of my items are AUTHENTIC. I would never knowingly buy anything fake and I certainly would never consider selling a fake item. I have a good reputation & wish to keep it that way. In the event of any dispute, please contact me in the first instance.
