Did you find this item expensive? Let's analyze it: It includes FREE SHIPPING. Platform fees fluctuate based on sales, category and locations, especially with promotions across various platforms. I allocate selling prices to cover these costs. Does that make sense? If you're interested in owning this item, I recommend you BUY it NOW, as I revise descriptions and prices annually. For vintage items, I tend to raise the price due to their limited availability and nostalgic appeal. This Jose Hess monogram tote bag from the Danbury Mint Collection is not only stunning but also boasts a timeless style that enhances its elegance. Made of faux leather yet sturdy. It has a wristlet attachment. It has 3 trimmed slip pockets, attached key strap on the front wall and 1 large zip pocket with logo tab on the back wall. The back of the dust bag has rip as featured. Aside from cleaning or enhancing the background, I do not use Photoshop or filters on my images. My items for sale come from a non-smoker, perfume-free owner without pets household.
