Early 2020s (Label indicates 2022 manufacture/purchase)
Material
Synthetic faux-leather (polyurethane) exterior, rigid plastic or aluminum core, felt/velvet interior lining.
Condition
Good to Very Good. The exterior shows minor scuffing. There is a secondary adhesive label ('2022 progressive') applied to the front that may leave residue if removed.
Demand Level
Moderate. Replacement cases have a steady niche market for buyers who lost their original, but they are not high-flip items.

$8.00 - $15.00
Estimated Retail Value
$25.00 - $35.00 (when sold as a standalone accessory or included with $150+ frames)
Comparable Sales
Similar Bebe cases frequently sell for $10 - $14 on eBay plus shipping. Unbranded versions sell for $5-$7, so the brand name adds a small premium.
