Should I exchange? I know it is my decision, but still... I'd like input, opinions, thoughts, etc.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi there! Welcome to TPF! I don't have a large single YET, but I do have a Baroque. I really like the Baroque style and find it to be quite functional (the chain for the double strap can actually slide through to make it a cross body). With that being said, I understand what you mean about the price difference, which is why my next bag will likely be a single instead of a Baroque. I only carry these 'smaller' bags (I'm one of those people who likes giant bags) when I'm going out somewhere nice or to dinner. As such, I don't want to spend a $$$$ on an occasional bag.
What I would suggest to you is looking at how much you will use either bag and which one you REALLY want. If you will carry the bag often, then I think buying the bag you REALLY REALLY want is best. Otherwise you will end up buying it later or lusting after it and regretting your other purchase. If you are only going to use it on occasion, then I would definitely use price as one of your deciding factors (but not the only one).
I hope this helps! Enjoy whichever bag you choose!
