Darcey W.July 13, 2013Browse to get an idea of what's on offer, then shop elsewhere: prices are exorbitant even with bargaining.
Sarah HuntleyFebruary 27, 2013Leather handbag 340tl prepared to reduce to 180tl !! Be brave and attempt to walk away
OliviuApril 8, 2013First offer must be 75% less the asked price. U should obtain at least 40% discount.
Bill DoulopoulosAugust 6, 2015Quite overated.The prices are fair but the products lack in qualility.The negotiations that place there are related to old era
