Good morning all: Stone Mountain has been around a long time & have usually been rather expensive and good quality. I was looking at all the different selections for the TLV. Under details they say PU leather which means polyethylene treated & not 100% untreated leather. That explains the price. Also I do not like metal zippers as some of them have. The one I like has nylon zippers which I think looks more expensive.
One more thing: how can they expect to sell an item when there is no picture & says “image coming soon”? I would say most people would not buy something they don’t know what it even looks like . If they line them up on the counter & there are 4, the camera person stops at the 3rd one and goes back to the 1st one. This is so aggravating. Does anyone notice this besides me? 🌸

Re: Stone Mountain handbags today...
I agree about the pics! I just posted.
I did ask the hosts last night and they did confirm the bags are real leather.

Hi RS ! I googled PU leather, it explained the difference between 100% leather & PU. I didn’t know what PU meant. The PU doesn’t hold up as long as the 100%, but yes it is still leather. 🌸

Re: Stone Mountain handbags today...
@RS Google PU leather. It is not Genuine Leather. Its considered Artificial leather, made from fibrous pieces of leather scraps that are polyurethaned. Will not hold up like leather. Now that explains the price.
I am so glad I didnt order it.
Btw- i did get lucky.
They had 1 ct diamond hoops, blue or yellow or mixed on the night before, it was $199. They spun the wheel for 50%. And it was $99. I bought the blue one.
I notice yesterday that its 30% off. I was thrilled mine wasnt shipped yet. I was able to cancel it and reorder it.
Sure enough, someone noticed after I snagged it for $70 that they never increased the price back to $199 before applying the coupon. So now its $199 plus 30% off. So I really got lucky.
Anyway, i think shoplc should have put thats its PU leather on on their on air description of the handbag.
Lots of buyers thought they were getting a steal, getting real leather for $39.
Thanks again

Leather anything...my last comment on this...
Hi everyone: I’m sure most of you know how to click on “details” to find the specifics of an item. I always read this. Just in case any newbies don’t know, I looked at a genuine leather bag & the details said “100% leather.” PU will be listed in the “details” if not “100% leather.” Just wanted to make sure all the facts check out. 🌸

You are right! Some probably never scroll down & read written description!
