The Bag Hunter's First Post

I've always had a thing for bags. When I was younger, I was all about Sanrio bags for school (Little Twin Stars and Hello Kitty were my favorites). As I got older, I moved on to more "expensive" bags from guess, nine west and coach. I am now well into my 30's and have certainly moved into the "no turning back zone" of high end, designer bags. I love the look, smell and feel of well-crafted purses safely esconced in their dust bags. I am a big fan of Louis Vuitton (no surprise there!), Chanel, Gucci and Dior. But I also drool over Shanghai Tang's lambskin bags with real jade closures. I like going to market stalls in different parts of Asia to see what hand-emroidered clutch or tote I can find there. I am, by definition, a bag hunter. I would search high and low for a specific purse for myself or as a gift for a friend. I have been asked by friends to help "locate" hard to find bags and limited edition pieces here in Hong Kong- my current home and a definite haven for bag enthusiasts like myself. And because it is a passion of mine- I've actually managed to be quite successful at it. I'm hoping this "skill", if you can call it that, will be useful to you, my potential clients. Want a bag but don't have time to look for it? Itching to get your hands on the latest "it" bag but don't know where to start? I promise I will try my best to find it for you. I specialize in hunting down gently used to well loved designer bags and sending it to you- it's new and proud owner! Sound interesting? Let me know if there's any bag that catches your fancy right now and I will try my best to be of assistance.

Thank you,
