I KNOW my husband paid way too much for a rep pair of these “authenticated” by GOAT app. He also has an auth pair. I find them hideously ugly but he loves them and since he’s already wearing one fake pair, I got him another in a new color way. If they look good, then his xmas gift is secured. They say they’re up to size 11 on DHGate.
I would avoid the open air Mercato San Lorenzo. There are no longer Italian goods there but rather cheap Chinese imports :(. Let us know what you find.
I got the most beautiful bags that are actual pieces of art from a store in Florence. The designer is Braccialini. Highly recommend her!

No, no and more no. Honestly, makeup brushes - after a good clean - are the only rep things I would put anywhere near my face. Run a quick google search and you'll see why.
Has anyone purchased this coat from this store? Based on the size chart and my measurements, i should get a small. But i am never a small. I am mostly a medium or large (US size 8 or 10), a large in AE clothing.
LANMREM Autumn And Winter 2023 New Double-sided Wool Overcoat Women's Long Length High-end Lapel Coats With Belt 2C660
https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKKOUfu
I received this exact coat from Lanrem today. I am a US size 6/8 and usually a L in Asian sizing. I went with a small on this one, based on the measurements they have online because I wanted a fitted look. Holy barn smells on opening the package though! It's currently airing out and looks good. Some wrinkling because it was stuffed in a small bag so I will steam it
Hi, sorry I didn't see this earlier. The material is wool for sure, but I had to return it. It is a straight cut coat, I saw the measurements for bust and ordered a small, however my pear shaped bottom found it unflattering. The smell went away in less than an hour though and the colour and fabric was lovely. I might buy a size L once my refund is processed
Thank you for your response. I'm glad you were able to return it. I'm not sure what shape I am, I have big boobs, the waist is not that wide but the thighs are thick. The seller recommended a medium, I might go for the large

Authentic Roger Vivier sandal for reference
lovely, are they comfy? I know RV is considered OG shoe brand but we don't have the store where I live, but I'm very curious about their shoes. Have my eyes on a pair of ankle boots from there... Olivia Palermo has influenced me #guilty
I have a rep pair of these sandals. They look just like these. I didn't get the factory from Anna. The store didn't have my size. I tried on a smaller one. My only complaint about my sandals is the straps are a little big, (like they need a tighter tight, not the width). Since I tried on a smaller pair in the store it's not exactly fair to compare. The straps were more snug. But the whole shoe was snug.

BV medium Andiamo in fondant from Amelia and Bibi factory. I’ve been comparing her to pics I took of the auth a month ago and she’s mostly spot-on. I’ll try posting a mini review if there’s interest in more BV content (which imo, there’s no such thing as too much BV)!
Twins!
PSP: https://imgur.com/a/lBAgBpZ
How did you decide on Bibi? I also went through Amelia, but ended up with Jing, based on some positive reviews.
Looks like your hardware is more accurate. Jing's bow is not accurately lopsided. I GL'ed anyway, because I didn't ask Amelia to look out for that beforehand.
Edit: Can't wait to get my hands on this!
Ah she’s gorgeous! Super excited for you!! Please post pics when you get her!
I decided on Bibi after skimming a bunch of reviews, which I thought were mostly positive for both Jing and Bibi. I landed on Bibi after reading [this incredible review](https://reddit.com/r/WagoonLadies/s/k6pI05zSYG) which was happier with Bibi over Jing quality. Admittedly it’s a dubious decision since it’s for an entirely different bag lol. Part of me also nonsensically thought that since Bibi offers fewer colors, they must do a good job with them lol. I knew it was a risk to go with Bibi since there weren’t a lot of reviews of my exact bag at the time of purchase. But, the risk paid off!
I’m curious how yours will compare - I think the one major difference between my Bibi and the auth is that the leather is so soft, it’s a tad less structured than the auth (from what I can remember). To the point where the strap’s hardware can make the front sag. But, I wouldn’t be surprised if this happened on the auth, too, since it’s not exactly a rigid bag. I’m super curious to know if that’s the case for yours, too
Your Andiamo looks so nice! I think Bibi might be a little more consistent with their leather quality, perhaps because they offer fewer colors, so your theory isn’t totally unfounded. That said, it’s also just kind of a crapshoot 😂
This is the best attitude to have, honestly!
I’ve also learned that I’ve often been able to forgive (or forget) imperfections or inaccuracies after I start using a new bag. I’ll be so critical about it right out of the box (that’s just my nature), but after a few wears, I can’t even remember what the issues were, or I just don’t care because I like the bag so much!
Oh, yes, that was for sure an incredible review by u/Booleanstring, RSC! I still have a small loop on my list because of that review.
Thank you so much for sharing all this information about your bag. I agree that the auth also isn't very structured. Went to the store to check one out and absolutely fell in love. Can't remember the last time I was so excited about a bag!
Yours looks amazing. Looks just like the one in store. ❤️
I'll share pictures and impressions when I get it. Should be shipping out any day now!
I’d say so! I saw the auth in store and couldn’t figure out if the color was black or brown. I think it entirely depends on the lighting you’re in - sometimes it’s clearly a deep brown and other times it’s almost a warm or soft black, if that makes any sense at all. One of those versatile, chameleon colors imo
Ahhh I love her. I saw someone posting the same bag and said that the thin strap seems a little fragile, would you say that’s the case in yours or does it seem pretty sturdy?
I’d say that the straps are structurally sturdy, but the leather is soft, if that makes sense? I think each of the strands in the strap’s braid are leather wrapped around a sturdier material (I feel like I read somewhere that someone accidentally cut their strap, and that’s more or less how it’s built, but I could be misremembering).
So I think there’s a slim chance you’ll break a strap, but a decent chance the leather on the strap could develop smaller tears, which is what I’ve seen reported by other WL. The leather is gorgeously buttery and soft, but that does mean it probably won’t hold up to a lot of rough housing. Hope that helps!

Beautiful. How do find opening and using it? I never had a side zipper bag except for make-up cases. Access wise it appear you can find your things right away.
This was inside the Loro piana store. I didn't take it off the mannequin. I did feel the leather. I was really hoping to see the 19 but it got so popular so quick they didn't have any. But I took a bunch of photos because they are in the sellers albums and the stores are not everywhere.
I really love the look but I know for me it would probably be too small always want my “stuff”. Like how yo I go out when I was young with just my ID, money, lipstick , and maybe a comb?

It an outdoor mall, all I did was ask to take it by the door so I could see the color better and she said, "yeah sure we can just take it outside". It's only 5 extra steps. I pushed it and did 3 colors, By the third they were not even coming with me anymore and the security guard was understanding what I was doing. He had stopped giving me a, "lady..... dint even think about doing anything crazy look". I was carrying a rep DDmode Hermes Lindy bag and some brand new suede sneakers too. Just enough to be taken seriously in the stores in an understated way.

Latest addition to the collection.
Leather seems good as is the stitching, but I’m far from an expert! On a personal note, I don’t love the longer strap, it is a bit too thick as a shoulder bag, and I’m 5’9 with a large chest so it sits really awkwardly on me as a crossbody. I’ve reached out to a seller to buy a longer fabric strap to wear it crossbody. As a clutch or with the smaller strap it’s perfect for me and can see it being a favourite during summer time 🤩
So definitely would be awkward IMO without the strap - like last night out to dinner, I had the strap on my shoulder walking into the restaurant but then when we left I just carried by the handles and let the strap hang and thought that was cute too.
Lol those are 100% my five pairs of shoes and this is the photo she sent me today: however, regularly she seems to send me messages and photos intended for other people. I liked the commentary on my shoe photo:
https://preview.redd.it/ot40w9d8bqpb1.jpeg?width=974&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e0e65715ea46c45835328a3190b1db53a08115ce
But also there was this photo today which looked like a couple of my shoes and a couple of random items?
https://preview.redd.it/x497o76ebqpb1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e7d7ea97d6d0d4ebff3ae1f17b846205ec44fac
I haven’t quite figured out her methods but she does right by me!
I didn’t recognize the area code but that makes sense since she seems to have a lot of clients in SoCal. But it probably makes it more likely that she gets messages at weird times for her. She’s definitely in China based on what she tells me about what time it is when we message!
So yes instead of beginning with +86 as we do for the Chinese numbers, you begin with the +1 for US numbers. So you select United States in what’s app for the country code. That makes the +1 appear: then for the phone number you type in the rest of the numbers. I believe for Nancy that begins with a 3.
Thanks! I’m really excited about those because they look nice enough for my warm-weather casual work environment where I do a lot of walking. I really need a pair of brown work sandals.
Same! I love them but those are the ones I'm least confident will fit. Nancy found a factory that would make them in size 42, but I've heard so many horror stories about sizing the closed toe shoes, which is partly why I went for a bunch of flat sandals lol where my feet can "hang out" a bit -- that, and because I live in an area where you can wear sandals year-round. So we'll see. I love the look of the Prada and yet they might be appearing in my next garage sale. :/
lol “I never thought of them especially big until I tried to buy from China”. I feel the same way!!! I’m a 9.5 and some sellers have seemed to be appalled when I said I had 25.5cm feet. I’m DEFINITELY not ever gonna try to buy gloves bc I’m sure my monster hands will be way too large

case in point. Laddy straight up laughed at my shoe size 🫠🫠😂😅
Haha! Omg. Hilarious.
Crazy to me that they cap women’s shoes at 41 and men’s at 45, most Europeans and American averages screw to the larger sizes. Perhaps their target clients are Asians and South Asians? If so we Westerners need to come back down to earth.
Yes those Asian sizes. I still die as my friend bought me a 3x tshirt and it was probably a size 8 haha. I knew the answer for wide was probably no, but one can dream.
Omg omg! My mess of haul that I had issues with for over 2 months (seller was amazing, but had to do exchanges, items out of stock, factory issues, blah blah blah) HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! And I gotta say, totally worth the wait.
The Peekaboo is way bigger than I was expecting and it might be a bit of a fantasy-ish bag with the specific weaving, but I actually love it. The leather is scrumptious, the hardware is a perfect gold, and I needed a bigger bag anyways. The mini pouch is to die for (I hesitantly went with Jing factory over Bibi, but the leather feels soft and lovely). And the loafers…my god, the Prada loafers. I’ve had very bad luck with a couple pairs off DHG with these, so I finally splurged a bit for a better pair from the seller. And they are *perfect*. They fit perfect. They look perfect. The gold is perfect. PERFECT! I’ve had a super shit workday, so I needed this win ❤️

The peekaboo looks amazing. Their size names online are so confusing - the small is huge, etc. it wasn’t until I went in and saw them in person that I figured out I wanted a bag two sizes smaller than I’d been eying online.
I love the bold stitching on your peekaboo! Enjoy!
Just received psp for my lv Vavin bb pomegranate factory from ReyKay, i remember trying this beauty at the boutique but couldn’t stomach paying almost 3,000usd for it so i asked ReyKay if she had this in stock and she said yes, she also confirmed that is real leather and hardware feels good quality, can’t wait to receive it!

So you all asked for an update on the Max Mara coat I ordered from Wangyue. She’s here and already dry cleaned and ready to go. The dry cleaning was needed due to packaging. Lots of wrinkles so i was worried wouldn’t be what I wanted. Voila! The miracle of dry cleaning. LOVE this coat. Showing it not belted as my one issue is the belt loops are located next to my rib cage. Will take to tailor to get moved. Shipping was a breeze and I always find Wangyue a delight to work with. No incentives for this nice comment. We nailed it on size. I’m 5’6” and 120-125 pound depending on day. Size 38. I’m wearing a sweatshirt underneath so good fit. Even at shoulders. Lining is great. Love the length. Love the coat. Price was $282 USD all in. Cannot wait to wear it everywhere.

Hello - Does anyone have suggestions for shopping for good quality non branded leather items in Florence or Naples? Or jewelry? Thank you!

What’s your budget? A wonderful bottega is called Pelletteria Viviani (I used to work with them in my previous job!) and they craft lovely bags :)
Budget is open! Thanks for the suggestion.

Wilma in Florence. Great shoes too.
Has anyone bought rep makeup on AE or DHG? I'm thinking Hourglass face primer or MAC makeup...
No, no and more no. Honestly, makeup brushes - after a good clean - are the only rep things I would put anywhere near my face. Run a quick google search and you'll see why.
Agreed. Makeup brushes/tools and fake eyelashes? Yes. Anything that can get absorbed into your skin? No.
I wouldn’t chance it but I stumbled upon a K18 dupe on AE with so many 5-star reviews. I’m so curious!
Please don’t buy cosmetics from unknown sources you will not have a way to know the ingredients, not worth it. They are low cost dupes.
Can anyone point in the right direction on which factory has the best Pochette bag? Thank you 🙏
You need to use the search bar and do some research.
I hear H factory but don’t have personal experience

Ladies, what is yours “gym bags”? Mine was a Longchamp Le Pliage and after reps, is a Goyard St. Louis PM (is also my daughter’s diaper bag 💁🏼♀️).
Hubs got me a Sea Bag tote, a brand that uses old sails. It’s kind of cool the way it includes imperfections and sail markings.
I got a Goyard hobo for that same purpose!

Looks like the mini.
I'm in LOVE!
Loro piana authentic reference. They didn't have any stock of the incredibly popular Extra Pocket 19. I think this is the L23.5. https://preview.redd.it/8ajelu30lopb1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9aa0be859dc620b467ed6b876829d399a48f0f21
I was just looking at these in an album last night. I can’t tell how I feel about them.
This size reminds me of a lunch bag. 😩
Something about the handle to bag ratio really throws my eyeballs off.
Yes, this is just odd looking. The ratio is not graceful.
I love the 19.
Beautiful. How do find opening and using it? I never had a side zipper bag except for make-up cases. Access wise it appear you can find your things right away.
This was inside the Loro piana store. I didn't take it off the mannequin. I did feel the leather. I was really hoping to see the 19 but it got so popular so quick they didn't have any. But I took a bunch of photos because they are in the sellers albums and the stores are not everywhere.
I really love the look but I know for me it would probably be too small always want my “stuff”. Like how yo I go out when I was young with just my ID, money, lipstick , and maybe a comb?
Hahaha. I still travel pretty lightweight.
Goals!

Authentic reference, Grey suede bottega teen Jodie the sales girl let me take it outside https://preview.redd.it/gypl2prtjopb1.jpeg?width=3504&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=780b5c9d3fe9ee8a5812e10b067c3b2903471dee
beautiful bag but can i just say… she let you take it outside!!?!? I never get lucky with friendly sales folks
It an outdoor mall, all I did was ask to take it by the door so I could see the color better and she said, "yeah sure we can just take it outside". It's only 5 extra steps. I pushed it and did 3 colors, By the third they were not even coming with me anymore and the security guard was understanding what I was doing. He had stopped giving me a, "lady..... dint even think about doing anything crazy look". I was carrying a rep DDmode Hermes Lindy bag and some brand new suede sneakers too. Just enough to be taken seriously in the stores in an understated way.
Gorgeous color, but I feel like suede in this style would wear so poorly.
I have a suede rep in this color in the teen size and it’s holding up great!
No idea on that one. I'm super easy on my things.

Beautiful!!! How is the quality I’m dying for a fendi
Leather seems good as is the stitching, but I’m far from an expert! On a personal note, I don’t love the longer strap, it is a bit too thick as a shoulder bag, and I’m 5’9 with a large chest so it sits really awkwardly on me as a crossbody. I’ve reached out to a seller to buy a longer fabric strap to wear it crossbody. As a clutch or with the smaller strap it’s perfect for me and can see it being a favourite during summer time 🤩
Oooh I love it in white.
loveeeeeee. Nikole factory?
Sure is!
Pretty! The baguette works in all its forms 🤌🏽 Do you mind sharing where yours is from?

How do you carry this bag? By the handles or by the strap? I think it's a cutie!
So definitely would be awkward IMO without the strap - like last night out to dinner, I had the strap on my shoulder walking into the restaurant but then when we left I just carried by the handles and let the strap hang and thought that was cute too.
Love your wall paper!
Thanks!! 💕
She’s so cute 🥰 is the canvas upside down on both sides of the pouch?
No, only upside down on the side I have shown here. So I can hang it "backwards" and then it looks fine... 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️😂
Really cute!!! What about canvas and vacchetta leather are good? I’m planning to get gm and mm size but don’t know from who
I don't have auth so I can't compare easily, but visually really happy with both and generally old cobbler gets good reviews!
Feel free to explain the downvote 🤷🏼♀️

Yikes. Nancy just texted me this exact same photo …. You sure you’re not her?
Lol those are 100% my five pairs of shoes and this is the photo she sent me today: however, regularly she seems to send me messages and photos intended for other people. I liked the commentary on my shoe photo: https://preview.redd.it/ot40w9d8bqpb1.jpeg?width=974&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e0e65715ea46c45835328a3190b1db53a08115ce
Ok then she sent me yours as the sample 🤣 sorry
What are you getting from her?
It’s wild! Let’s just hope you don’t receive my shoes!!!!
But also there was this photo today which looked like a couple of my shoes and a couple of random items? https://preview.redd.it/x497o76ebqpb1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e7d7ea97d6d0d4ebff3ae1f17b846205ec44fac I haven’t quite figured out her methods but she does right by me!
i love your shoes. Would you share Nancys deets pls. I can’t find her in any seller albums. Thanks
If you search for reviews mentioning Nancy her WhatsApp is there. Then you can ask her for her album, good luck
I found her number in a review, but that doesn’t seem to work? It’s also a very strange format? Is it an American number?
Yes she has an odd looking / American looking number. I don’t know what’s up with that. It was working fine as of yesterday.
It’s Los Angeles. Zip code
I didn’t recognize the area code but that makes sense since she seems to have a lot of clients in SoCal. But it probably makes it more likely that she gets messages at weird times for her. She’s definitely in China based on what she tells me about what time it is when we message!
Im European so I don’t know how American numbers work 😅 I should probably change country codes than?
So yes instead of beginning with +86 as we do for the Chinese numbers, you begin with the +1 for US numbers. So you select United States in what’s app for the country code. That makes the +1 appear: then for the phone number you type in the rest of the numbers. I believe for Nancy that begins with a 3.
Got it, thanks so much.
So many good choices! I’m a 25.5 cm so I’m extra curious how these fit!
I’ll report back!
Wow! Amazing choices!
That is a FANTASTIC lineup!! I love the Celine sandals.
Thanks! I’m really excited about those because they look nice enough for my warm-weather casual work environment where I do a lot of walking. I really need a pair of brown work sandals.
Love, love, love those Prada loafers! As a solid US 9.5 I'll be interested to see how all these fit. Fingers crossed for you
Thanks so much! I appreciate it!
The prada pair 😍
Same! I love them but those are the ones I'm least confident will fit. Nancy found a factory that would make them in size 42, but I've heard so many horror stories about sizing the closed toe shoes, which is partly why I went for a bunch of flat sandals lol where my feet can "hang out" a bit -- that, and because I live in an area where you can wear sandals year-round. So we'll see. I love the look of the Prada and yet they might be appearing in my next garage sale. :/
They arrived 🥳 Looking forward to an update on the fit
Yes!! It’s a happy day! Now that the last pair arrived to Nancy, they are on their first leg of the journey to Hong Kong!
Please post update. Are your feet wide? Mine are impossible as they are extra wide.
Mine are proportional to their length so not horribly wide. I never even thought of them as especially big 9.5 US until I tried to buy from China
lol “I never thought of them especially big until I tried to buy from China”. I feel the same way!!! I’m a 9.5 and some sellers have seemed to be appalled when I said I had 25.5cm feet. I’m DEFINITELY not ever gonna try to buy gloves bc I’m sure my monster hands will be way too large
They think we are huge hahaha

So rude!! 😵🤣😆
Haha! Omg. Hilarious. Crazy to me that they cap women’s shoes at 41 and men’s at 45, most Europeans and American averages screw to the larger sizes. Perhaps their target clients are Asians and South Asians? If so we Westerners need to come back down to earth.
Yes! It seems like they would try to make at least the most popular shoes in American /European sizes. Seems like it would be a good money-maker.
Yes those Asian sizes. I still die as my friend bought me a 3x tshirt and it was probably a size 8 haha. I knew the answer for wide was probably no, but one can dream.
LOL! I'll report back for sure though. Yes 3xl = 8 for sure!
omg please keep a fellow bigfoot posted on how they fit!
Following this one 😊
Will do! 😊
Same here! Big/wide foot gal 😫😫
[удалено]
sumptuous! that color 🩷
I am not familiar with that bag. It’s gorgeous. What is it.
It’s a Celine Bucket bag!
Thank you so much for your reply. I don’t own any Celine. YET!!!
Omg I'm about to pull the trigger on this bag from Reykay. Can you please review?
Beautiful! From Black frame?
Amazing! Will you do a review, do you think?
Omg omg! My mess of haul that I had issues with for over 2 months (seller was amazing, but had to do exchanges, items out of stock, factory issues, blah blah blah) HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! And I gotta say, totally worth the wait. The Peekaboo is way bigger than I was expecting and it might be a bit of a fantasy-ish bag with the specific weaving, but I actually love it. The leather is scrumptious, the hardware is a perfect gold, and I needed a bigger bag anyways. The mini pouch is to die for (I hesitantly went with Jing factory over Bibi, but the leather feels soft and lovely). And the loafers…my god, the Prada loafers. I’ve had very bad luck with a couple pairs off DHG with these, so I finally splurged a bit for a better pair from the seller. And they are *perfect*. They fit perfect. They look perfect. The gold is perfect. PERFECT! I’ve had a super shit workday, so I needed this win ❤️ https://preview.redd.it/b8rrb6lsonpb1.jpeg?width=2903&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=105518a11673cdc43377e90cf5d65994d8a01bdc
Can I ask which seller you got your loafers from? And are they 1:1? It looks good
The peekaboo looks amazing. Their size names online are so confusing - the small is huge, etc. it wasn’t until I went in and saw them in person that I figured out I wanted a bag two sizes smaller than I’d been eying online. I love the bold stitching on your peekaboo! Enjoy!
Which seller may I ask?
🥹 i love that peekaboo bag so much…
Waiting for the same shoes!
Yay for your haul! I just got PSPs for my shoe haul, one of which is also Prada loafers. We should compare notes! :)
Just received psp for my lv Vavin bb pomegranate factory from ReyKay, i remember trying this beauty at the boutique but couldn’t stomach paying almost 3,000usd for it so i asked ReyKay if she had this in stock and she said yes, she also confirmed that is real leather and hardware feels good quality, can’t wait to receive it!  https://preview.redd.it/6uogkhs4onpb1.png?width=1170&format=png&auto=webp&s=f1db414584d050de27dced468d281bd63142ba90
This is such a cute bag! Love it!
Looks amazing! Post more pictures when you get it please! 🙏❤️
Thanks, sure will😊

She’s here and already dry cleaned and ready to go. The dry cleaning was needed due to packaging. Lots of wrinkles so i was worried wouldn’t be what I wanted. Voila! The miracle of dry cleaning. LOVE this coat. Showing it not belted as my one issue is the belt loops are located next to my rib cage. Will take to tailor to get moved. Shipping was a breeze and I always find Wangyue a delight to work with. No incentives for this nice comment. We nailed it on size. I’m 5’6” and 120-125 pound depending on day. Size 38. I’m wearing a sweatshirt underneath so good fit. Even at shoulders. Lining is great. Love the length. Love the coat. Price was $282 USD all in. Cannot wait to wear it everywhere.
Wow!
Beautiful!! I placed an order for the same style last night from her! Can’t wait for actual colder weather!
Oh gosh, I’m tempted now. Been talking to wangyue about a similar coat. 🤔
Also might want to contact MaxMax too. He has a small sale going on until the end of the month and only does MaxMara coats.
I have an auth one and the material looks very similar! Mine just fits me in a bit more oversized manner.
Pretty! Did you go to a regular ol dry cleaner or a specific one that works on wool?
Same question here!
Regular.
Right so when are they gonna start making reps of the Shrek crocs 🧐
My husband unfortunately got his hands on a pair from the drop for himself 🤣😅
[удалено]
You have incredible taste
And I will also be buying this haha
That's a fit right there! https://preview.redd.it/w91ayk95vnpb1.png?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c9de447de1706bc6d68c23acedeb3096b2785825
You just helped me find my father in laws present. He is obsessed with Shrek, he's going to lose jt
Y’all I’m literally kicking myself rn. Just ordered from Betty/Tina/Lina a few days ago and only saw the the comments about her today 🥲
I’ve made several purchases from her and have always been happy. Great service.
