Okay, so, let me tell you about this whole thing with me trying to remake a large Prada Galleria Saffiano leather bag.
I saw this Prada Galleria Saffiano Leather Bag, the large one, and I thought, “I want that.” But, you know, it’s Prada, so it’s way out of my price range. Then I started thinking, “Maybe I can find a good remake?”
I started looking around online, checking out Facebook Marketplace, and found some listings in North Wollongong, Varroville, and Sylvania Waters. Some were used, some were new. I mean they are all saying it is Remake.
-
Found a few listings in North Wollongong. Messaged a couple of sellers, but the prices were still a bit high for a remake.
-
Checked out Varroville next. Saw a listing that looked promising, but the seller was a bit sketchy. Didn’t want to risk it.
-
Then I looked at Sylvania Waters. Found a seller who seemed legit, but they were asking almost as much as a real one! What’s the point then?
Then I started to find an online store, and found one, the discount is pretty good, spend $80 get $15 off, and free delivery on all orders, and if order more than $65 you can get a free express delivery.
Doubts and Questions
But I still got this nagging feeling. Is it even worth it? I mean, I wanted the look of the Prada bag, but I also wanted something decent quality. I started asking myself:
-
Is a remake really going to be any good?
-
Will it actually look like a real Prada, or will it be super obvious that it’s a fake?
-
What if I get scammed? What if I pay for it and it never arrives, or it’s a total piece of junk?
-
Am I better off just saving up for the real thing, even if it takes forever?
So, I decided to dig deeper. I started reading reviews online, trying to find out if anyone had actually bought a remake Prada bag and what their experience was. I read through a bunch of stuff, trying to figure out if this online store was legit.
But finally, I decided to buy from that online store, it is my first time shopping there, so I paid $80 and got $15 off, plus free express delivery. After I received the bag, the appearance and quality are indeed quite good.
I’m still not sure if I made the right decision, but I really love this bag.
