i'm completely anticipating the maxi release! just concerned if the chain will sustain such a large-sized bag

missisa07 · Oct 25th, 2008, 05:13 AM

For that price, I'll stick with my "regular" Jumbo flaps.

This leads me to think that the demand for the vintage XL's will remain strong.
I bet there are many more of us willing and able to spend the price of the vintage XL jumbo then there will be for the brand new one.....just my opinion though.

I agree!

The bag will be in caviar in many colors and in lamb. Price $3250 for caviar and $3450 for lamb.

The dimensions are 13.93 X 9 X 3.93, about an inch larger all over, and an inch and a third longer ...

The bag is called "the maxi" it's coming out around jan/feb /09. I received dimensions from the corp. office.

My Sales Assoc. is Leslie from Saks Fifth Avenue in Greenwich, CT.

I never bought from her but she has gone overboard to assist and look things up for me. Here's the number for Saks, not direct. Ask for Chanel handbags and then for Leslie. I have no affliation with her other than to get info on a few handbags.

Francesca

Saks Fifth Avenue

She is one of my SA's too. She's a doll. Her name is Liz and she uses her middle name Lee.

I find my jumbo too big sometimes so something even larger isn't for me.

I just asked to see a photo of the red classic flap that's coming in and they pulled a book our with everything they ordered for the up coming seasons.

It looks a lot like the vintage bags Nicole Richie carries. The flap goes straight across, and it is smaller than half the size of the bag. The logo claps is smaller than the vintage bags though.
