Then do still charge the new customer full price? Seems like they really benefit then.

Love the color on the right!!!!

Me too, that's the color the SO Cabat is in. If that gal doesn't take it, then woo hoo, one of us are!!! If she does, then I hear a SO calling us!!!

Well for you, don't you think the elephant as you have the PO???

I love the elephant on the right, I can't believe I didn't think of that. Oh well. The bag sitting in HI is the elephant. NO pix yet, if I do I'll let you know!!!

Hmm, maybe she gets some back since they have buyers salivating to purchase it. But I know when I talked to him, he told me the deposit was nonrefundable.

lol-- I got my colors mixed up! I thought the elephant armatura was on the left and the regular on the right. It's the other way around?

I really don't know anything about the armatura....

That makes sense that it would be non-refundable, otherwise people wouldn't think twice about cancelling. But it seems unfair that they should make the extra money on the bag. Isn't the deposit 50% of the cost?

Longchamp · Oct 27th, 2009, 09:42 PM

Oh wowzee you are right, the right is regular Armatura and the left is the Elephant Armatura. Yikes, I could see me messing up when I order too--that would be an expensive error.

The bag in HI is the Armatura, the grey one on the right!!!

He told me 30% but that was about 6 mos ago, maybe it's changed.

That's what I was thinking. I could fall in love with either one in a cabat.

You're probably right! I am not up to speed in the world of SO's.

Did you see the thread where there is now talk that they might do a SO tpf handbag? Jburgh is talking with the SO coordinator about it. Everybody is talking veneta right now. Don't think I need another one.

I was far from the first one to email him, I would love to see the pix of it, but I'm fine w/ just SO myself,. I already spoke to him about it.

If it becomes available, please take it!!!

I have tried to like that bag--the Veneta, but I just can't. Not sure why, as I think it's a beautiful bag, clever design and easy to carry, but just not me.

I wasn't the first one either and he never even responded to my email! Maybe I'll send him another note. But I would be far down on the list by now.

Would you SO a mini or medium? Was the cost comparable to what this one was?

So tell me - are you talking mini and what would a SO cost? What if there were more than one of us - would they give us a break?
