This is the most dreadful piece of bleh that AG has foisted upon us. I don't collect for Samantha, but I liked the looks of this piece from photos, and thought it could be utilitarian for our other dolls. And for $8 on clearance, I thought I couldn't go wrong.
Wrong.
It's hideous. I remember having a vinyl purse like this as a little girl that my mother got me at KMart. That one was nicer than this thing.
The valise is just so tacky and plastic. Mind you, I *don't* have an aversion to plastic playthings, but I *do* have my standards. As Qnpoohbear indicated, it's not even to doll scale.
I took a few photos when it arrived, put it back in the box, and shipped it back to AG for a refund. I have *never* done that before, but I simply refused to waste my $8 on junk. Fortunately my daughter had some duplicate birthday gifts to return as well, so we didn't waste return postage just for this thing. LOL.
The valise gets a F for me as a doll accessory. But I'll give it a D as a little girl's cheap purse.
