Default Help me decide my next purse purchase please! :)
Hello & help! I can't decide which of these 3 bags should be my next puchase: LV Ebony Damier Speedy 30 (I have the Azur 30), LV Mono Galliera PM, or the Gucci Ladies Web Hobo in black Guccissima leather. I thought I knew which bag I was gonna get for sure but now I can't decide! Thanks in advance to all who respond.

Ahhhh, still can't decide! Thanks ladies, but I still like all 3, however I have to narrow it down to one for my next purchase. I really appreciate your votes! The Speedy is classic & I love both the LV & Gucci shoulder bags! This is so hard for me.

Ok this is how I would decide. Dream about them. Obsess about them. Whichever lingers the most in your mind is it. Isn't is sad you can't get all three? (I can relate!!)

Gucci, love the Guccissima leather.

imagine all three on a table in front of you. Two other women come up. They start to make a move to reach for a bag. Which one do you grab?

Oooooo, great ideas to help me decide ladies, I've been dreaming about all 3 but of course 1 at a time & if those 3 bags were in front of me & others were scrambling to grab one, I'd probably grab a Louis Vuitton! & then It would probably be the Galliera Pm!!!! OMG Thanks! But now I've found abother bag I like to throw in the mix to compete with the Galliera PM... it's now between the Galliera PM & the Manon MM! On one hand the Galliera PM is a nice size & classic LV momogram & it' coated canvas which is easy to care for but with vachetta leather & on the other hand the Manon MM I beleive is not coated canvas but just canvas, but it has dark leather handles. I like both of these equally now & if they were on the table to grab I would just grab randomly. I promise it's between these two & I won't throw any more in the mix! I have looked at all the LV bags online & it is down to these 2! (The only LV I have so far is the Azur Speedy) Help!

NEVER MIND ABOUT MINI LIN! I just read many posts complaining about how thin the fabric is & it snags easily as well as fades. Even LV customer service at the toll free # said it's not as durable as the coated canvas! I think my decision is back to the Galliera PM! Of course if I change my mind I will let y'all know & post pics of whatever I choose when I get it! Thanks to all you ladies for weighing in & helping me! :P

So happy to see there is someone else who has trouble making their mind up over bags! Not to rub it in but it sure makes me feel better that I'm not alone in this!! I am all over the place trying to find the next bag of my dreams before I plunk down the big bucks! I wish you the best of luck and know you will be happy after you have decided! :

Ok, I've heard from many posters that Damier Ebony Speedy's handles tend to crack & peel, & the Galliera's hardwear seems to "bleed" (tarnishing brass leaves black marks on the vachetta) & some have said that LV SA's told them that the Galliers's hardware situation has been "fixed". Anybody recently having problems with these bags (hehe, I don't feel like calling LV customer service back for a while) or if anyone knows whether LV has addressed these problems or not in the manufacturing, please let me know, I still have some time to be saving up before I make my final decision! If these problems with these bags are still prevalent, then it may be the gorgeous black Guccissima leather bag!
