By the way, special mention must be made to Hirshleisher's SA, Madison! I was a little worried since I bought it sight unseen and have to totally rely on the SA. This bag is the most pristine bag I've ever seen! Thank Goodness it has just the right amount of aging/distress on the leather. I've seen some really wrinkled ones in the boutique before and started having horror thoughts that mine would turn out that way. The chain were all wrapped up, with tissue paper insert in between the inner flap button, etc. Also, look at how all the diamond quilts were so well-aligned at the back pocket!

More importantly, I got this fresh from the stockroom at a steal! I had USD400

What size is your bag? it's gorgeous and you're so lucky it was pristine! I've had bad experiences lately with getting less than pristine bags shipped ot me. Is Hirshleisher's in the US?

Yes, I have been resisting it and keep telling myself I don't need the 5th BLACK Chanel bag. But I now feel kinda "complete" with this purchase. So go for it!

By the way, pls model your beautiful 10C Red caviar jumbo for us. I am still deciding whether to take that plunge (Oops...did I just said I feel "complete")?!

Its a 227. Yes, its hard to find the flawless bag even if I were in the boutique personally sometimes. I was so pleased with how this transaction turned out. My SA was really wonderful, she chose this out of the only 3 she had (2 from stockroom and 1 from Display). She told me she stands behind the product she sells and will allow me to return it if I were unhappy with it. Yes, Hirshleifer's is in New York. Isn't it where u r from?

Kewave:

I am glad you finally got your bag, it arrived safely, and most importantly, it was treated with special attention. You are going to enjoy the reissue. The inch difference with the226 and the 227 and so minimal. Enjoy your bag and wear it well!!!!!!!!!
