Kate Spade had launched this fortunate bag on their web site in December in 5 variations, however they did not disclose the contents of every bag. The solely element that I knew in regards to the fortunate bag was that it’s going to have 5 gadgets in whole comprising purses, wallets, and/or equipment. Each fortunate bag was priced at 30,000 yen plus taxes and every buyer may solely buy one fortunate bag at a time.
The fortunate luggage have been lastly shipped on the thirty first of December and I lastly obtained mine a number of days again.
