Where did you find this beautiful color of the bag and how pricey was it if you don't mind me asking? It's absolutely gorgeous!!

Is the black medium really hard to find? I saw it on Barneys, but someone on eBay is insisting that her medium she has listed for $300 OVER retail is so expensive because it's rare. Yeah, right!

^^ For just about that price you could upsize to a new Large PS1!

KittyKat65 · Nov 1st, 2009, 07:22 PM

Exactly! I just wanted to point out to her why she keeps having to relist it and she got all defensive insisting that it's worth $1900 because it's unavailable adn that's what she paid. Whatever. Good luck to anyone who wants to buy it.

Does anyone here own a PS1 in Python, by any chance? I love the texture it adds to the satchel and am wondering how the leather will hold up over time.

I have a python PS1, but it's from the first season with the rubberized python, which has a shinier finish than the current season python, which looks more suede-like. The python has held up really well so far. The girl at the shop where I got mine has had a medium python from the first season for over a year, and I just saw hers the other day and it still looks new. She says she carries it almost daily even in bad weather. (That said, I still wouldn't chance taking mine out in the pouring rain!)

I really love the sueded look of the new ones. Really gorgeous.

bedhead: Thanks for the information! I think the version you have might be more durable... I saw one of the newer sueded versions at Barneys very recently and the edges of some of the largest scales in front were already lifting. Not sure how this particular type of leather will fare with regular use as it seems very delicate, I agree they're completely gorgeous though!

the washed python versions looks delish!!!

I really like all the lovely shades of blue and green in the upcoming collection.

I'm wondering how true-to-life the colors in these pictures are -- for example the second picture of Sea Blue looks like it has more shades of green in that color, compared to the first picture. I guess the lighting conditions must have been very different if both pictures are of the same bag!

Are these bags heavy? Will carrying around the large with a laptop (if it fits one?) around the city be too heavy?

Does anyone know if the Moss replaces the Smoke? They look kinda close in colour.
