Look at what I found in my fav consignment shop... - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

So I was home for Christmas last two weeks, and while I was in the city I dragged my visiting boyfriend into my new favorite consignment shop. They didn't have much LV at the time, but I did pick up this cool little piece. I'm not sure what it's for or what I'll use it for, but it looks cool and didn't cost much

I think it's a floppy disc holder or something, made of green taiga possibly, from 1997. Has anyone ever seen a piece like this before? I might just use it to hold receipts and loose papers in my bag or something...

Oh cool, I've never seen that one before. What are the measurements? It kind of looks like a card holder.

Cool item. HOw much did you get it for? I've never seen one of those pieces either.

I never saw a piece like this, great find!

Love it, especially since it's not on the market anymore and I like the color too.

It was only $58! So I couldn't resist lol. I'm not at home right now, but it was about the size of a floppy disk...that's actually what the saleswoman suggested it was for, holding floppy disks lol...

Yep, I think you are right (as always LoVer

). If it does hold a 1.44MB disc it is part of the taiga Green executive desk set range that was available via SO in the late 90's.

Congratulations pingping, its a wonderful and unique item you have. Anyway, did it fit the disc?

I actually love that color, Pingping. I just wish LV will come out with something in that color someday.

Congratulations pingping! What a unique piece and so special to own a piece of SO history.

LVMode I'm so impressed you know your LV so well!

Really gorgeous pingping!

You could carry photos in it now, or it's just lovely all by itself.

BAGGERS · February 9th, 2009, 10:00 AM

That is really nice pingping, you will probably be able to find quite a few diff. uses for it!

Great colour!

Congrats!
