The bag is absolute garbage not leather…
The bag is absolute garbage not leather as advertised, it is dollar store quality junk! Warning to anyone considering purchasing one don't purchase, so disappointed.
This blush bag looks nice
This blush bag looks nice, but I’m not sure I’ll use it often. The color is harder to pair than I thought. Quality is good, but not as versatile as I hoped.
Great structure but short strap
The tote is strong and structured, but the strap is too short for me to wear comfortably. Works fine if I use the handles only.
Works fine, but zipper could be smoother
The wallet is slim but the zipper catches sometimes. It still fits cards and coins well. Just wish the finish felt smoother.
I wanted to love this crossbody
I wanted to love this crossbody, but it feels smaller than I expected. It carries the basics, but not much more. The design is nice, just not practical for my needs.
Total scam
This company is a scam don't buy anything from them.
They don't send you what you ordered and they won't pay to return it. They say all their bags are made in the US but they are made in China and very poorly made also.
Karen Bags is NOT Karen Handbags LLC
Karen Bags is NOT affiliated with Karen Handbags LLC (Bolsa Nova). Please do not buy from them, they send cheap PVC bags and do not pay for returns. It appears that the woman on the website is generated by AI, and the story is not true. The bags are shipped from China. Please do your homework before buying from a new company.
Garbage
Garbage . Fake non leather bags from china ! Do not buy !!!!!!
This is a scam.....don't buy...avoid.
This is a scam. Many sites selling the same cheap Chinese tat. Sites selling same rubbish,using same photos, same offers....not unique at all. Avoid it's all fake. How do they get away with it? Don't waste your money.
BIGGEST SCAM
BIGGEST SCAM. The handbags are not made of leather and they are made in China not California as the website claims. Same as others, they want me to fill out a form and mail the bags back to China and then they said they would give me a refund. I suspect shipping to China is more than my refund would be. Then they offered me 20% off and keep the bags to protect the environment. DON'T BUY THIS CRAP. I learned my lesson.
Scam, Scam, Scam
Who doesn’t love a good deal and a great looking leather purse, Not a deal and the purse is crap and don’t even get me started on the smell. Took it to two different leather stores on main street and it is not leather at all. Have wrote to them several times and all they offer is 10% back or you may pay for return shipping back to China and fill out all kinds of paperwork and I also sent them pics. Be more careful in the future
The worst company I have ever dealt with , …
The worst company I have ever dealt with, scammed me good. The pocketbook stinks, cannot get the odor out of my house, not real leather a real piece of crap, spent $59.00 and a lesson learned, gonna call BBB and see if they can close them down then my lawyer, I want them off the Internet, gonna work real hard so that no one else has to go threw this. I heard it’s impossible to send back or get your money back, they haven’t heard the last of me
Always sparks a little conversation.....
My friends keep asking me about this patchwork mini bag. The mix of colors looks playful but not over the top. It’s small but fits my phone and lip balm without any problem. It’s become a bit of a conversation starter.
Big Fraud Company
Very disappointed. Received the bag today and it smells awful. Definitely not leather. The bag is cheaply made, not handmade and the lining is flimsy. Zippers are questionable. I definitely got shafted by the fraudulent web site. Like many others I am not paying shipping to China. Had I have known this was a Chinese company I would never have placed an order. Don’t trust this company. Will be contacting credit card company. Nothing on the web site indicates that returns are to China. Shoppers Beware!! Would give zero star rating if that were an option.
This is a fake advertisement
This is a fake advertisement. I ordered the so called one of a kind leather bag and it is not real leather. I used my PayPal account and was able to get reimbursed through the dispute program.
Just like the others said
Just like the others said, complete scam!!!
Bag is cheaply made. Don't waste your time and money.
Vinyl machine made bags, Chinese scam
I ordered 2 Karen bags and received them today. The designs are nice, but that is the only good thing I can say about them. Trust me when I inform you that these bags are NOT handmade and definitely NOT leather. These are machine made vinyl bags made in China. Its a Chinese scam. They are Not good qualty. They are dollar store merch. Its my mistake to have ordered these bags: a mistake I'll never again repeat.
Please don't buy from Karen-bag!
Please don't buy from here. It's a scam. I sent it back to China and it's still stuck in customs. I've sent several emails and was told it would only take 5-7 days to have the company pick it up from customs. It's been 1 MONTH since that response and it's still in customs. This is not right. The bag isn't genuine leather and it had a horrible smell.
Karen Bags is a website scammer
Karen Bags is a website scammer. There is no one retiring and bags are cheaply made of substandard material. In order to return merchandise, they require that you ship it at your own expense to China. Do not fall for this business and their practice.
Karen and Emma look so very much alike they must be identical twins.. NOT 🤔
That is so very nice not only does she make leather bag's but she also makwa handcrafted jewelry. But her name is Emma and has a partner named Mia, and they too or fixing to retire. SCAM ON BOTH Jewelry and handbags made of leather.
