Local retailer sells designer leather opera gloves

A local unclaimed freight retailer sold these designer long black leather gloves by Bottega Veneta for $99.00.  The seller "cargolargo" originally listed them at $149, where they received no bids, then re-listed them at $99 with the same results.  The third time was a charm as they were re-listed with a starting bid of $49 and I watched the price shoot up to $99 in the last few seconds of the auction.

The seller stated these size 6 gloves were 28" long (impressive) and featured the classic 3-line stitching detail on the back of the hand area.  Seller also stated that original retail was $650.

Given that the seller was local, I wish I could have seen these in person.  I definitely would have been interested had they not been such a small size.

Italian leather trench coat sells for $610!

This previously-owned Bottega Veneta black leather trench coat received 22 bids and sold for a very impressive $610.50. This Italian-made trench was a size 42 and looks to be very well-made of buttery soft leather. I especially like the wide leather tie belt.

Nice pictures, but it would have been even nicer to have seen this modeled.
