SUPER amazing Rilee! And here I thought my bag that's coming in with the blue trim satchel was a crazy haul, lol. That one I traded everything in my bag it seemed. But, I ended up with an incredible, and high priced bag.

Congrats!

Thanks guys!! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm super happy with all of it!!! I think mine ended up being like $220 when it was all finished.

So, I gotta ask though... do you think they are still making money off of us when we get our bags this high? I was thinking about it today and I basically just got $170 worth of stuff that I didn't pay for. I'm wondering how they come out even when some of these people are getting there bags up to say $300/$400 dollars. Anyone with a good business mindset have an idea? I was just more curious than anything. DEFINITELY not complaining! Hah

Whoa! You're up to 7?! My bag is going horrible right now! lol. No trading going on. If I cancel is there anything good still on the main page? Any good bags? :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
EVERYTHING good is gone, it looks like. I think I'm going to wait to start again til around the 1st. I still have the family member's bag they let me have to play with and I have the rose clutch in that.

They definitely aren't paying the prices we see. These are old items so they probably get them REALLY cheap. They probably get jewelry for under 5 dollars, make up for under 5, etc. 

 
Man, after seeing your bags, I suck at trading! The most items I can ever get up to is 4 and they're just not super amazing.

Yeah they're making money. Remember they are quoting retail prices for your value, but they must be paying wholesale, and possibly well below wholesale. I think a bag as high as yours might be a loser for them, but there are few who get that much. I've seen lots of unboxing videos or blogs and the people are getting the usual 3/4 items and happy with that. That is where they make their money!

From what I understand when someone like that goes to ship their bag LBB makes them buy both bags or cancel both bags, so the joke is on them.

Well, the site does keep track. If they try to cancel one bag, as others have said, they'll tell them that they can't do it and have to buy both bags. So at least the company keeps track of things like that and doesn't just totally ignore it! They probably don't care as long as people buy both bags, because obviously they'll make more money that way.

 
It would be fun to have two bags going. Then if one is closing but has some items you really don't want, but think you could trade if only you had more time, you could trade them to the other bag for something you are sure you are going to keep. But, you have to know the rules, like the bag can't go under $80, right?

Mel, I can't find you there. What do you go by? The same with you Jenna, I think you're Jenna C, right?

 
Yes, I haven't bought my first bag and I'm just living vicariously though all of you.... LOL Check your followers I added a pic so you should be able to pick me out as Donna or Donna Johnson. Not sure what I go by! lol

 
I can't believe that people are trading for those awful Fydelity bags. I'd be horrified if they added that to my bag and tell them to cancel immediately! UGH! They look like cheap plastic and I'd feel like a fool using it anyway. There is no way the value is really $50 for those things.
