Where to buy on the internet a great (wedding) purse?

Netherlands

I hope there are people here familiar with buying clothes, purses etc on the internet. I am looking for a (emerald) green purse that fits my wedding dress. It's not really that I like to drag a purse around with me but more need. Passport, money, cellphone, so the most important things one needs abroad, I have to keep with me. I visited ebay, aliexpress but can't find what I am looking for (which also means not too expensive and also shipping to the Netherlands). Any other suggestions fitting with a green dress are welcome too. Don't have much time anymore to find one :-(

Hi WakeUpKitty! From where I am from, internet purchase is not yet very popular so we usually buy from department stores and shops. Why not head over to some shops near your place? I think you'll get more options that way too and the purse would most probably be readily available and are in stock. No waiting time needed plus you can purchase with a credit card. When my sisters were here, there were times when I would ask them to choose and buy for me especially if I didn't have the time to pick the item out myself.

nice suggestion, it is better to look at the local stores than buy cheap things online and pay a heavy postage, shipping cost for it.

Do you have thrift, second hand, or consignment shops near where you live. Since those kinds of purses don't get used a lot you can likely find one in very nice condition at a 2nd hand store. The everyday purses might be in a little rougher shape but the fancier purses should still be in great condition. Other than Ebay I wouldn't know where to get something like that for a decent price. Maybe Craig's list.
