    When a Rolex sticker can make a squillion quid, this seems most reasonable.

    I'm sure that back in day, a friend of mine who travelled frequently back and forth to Hong Kong told me that Harrods carrier bags could fetch a small fortune.

    If I buy it, do you think he would put it in a bag for me?

    I'm lost for words ....... ONLY £30 buy it now. LOL!!!!!!!!

    He should let it run, must surely be worth more - even without a box/papers.

    I think if you look at the production cost to the asking price it is a bargain compared to buying a watch!

    Are we sure that it's a genuine carrier bag? Perhaps the experts could offer a view

    It does seem a bit pricey for what is essentially a carrier bag, albeit a very nice one.

    A bit pricey - it's used carrier bag!!! - next thing you know people will be trying to sell used watches!
    It's just a matter of time...

    Well 'we' do pay for that within the P&P were all charged, so selling them is hardly scandalous. The optimist on the bay trying to sell the once free Legendary Watches book for £60 amuses me though. That said, pro-rata it's a much better deal than this carrier bag :|
