Everytime i send international, the buyer ALWAYS ask me to declare a value of $50 to save them money... but its risky doing it that way, because if a bag gets lost, then i'm screwed out of an expensive bag, and the money!

Customs is normally paid by the person receiving the package, and what you pay differs for each country, depending on what your own respective country charges. Since this is a Flat USD95 quoted, it's unlikely RM is covering customs.

USD 95 is high - A Balenciaga bag delivered to my location in Asia via Fedex within three to four days will cost me about USD 50 only. I understand RM uses the USPS service which may be slightly cheaper? Unless insurance is included as well, if not USD 95 is horrendously high.

Hi Desi,

This is from Resort 07/08. We won't be doing this hardware in this color combo in the future. It's a beauty isn't it?!

Can you confirm what season is this from, and will there be more Matinee's in the future with this hardware? or is it the zippers here on out? The one below is the whitewash/rosegold and the 2nd color ive seen is the sahara.. please more info

Desi · Apr 22nd, 2008, 11:01 AM

^^Yes its a beauty! I love it!

Good afternoon everyone!

I have more answers for you!

Any info about the Sage Nikki? will it make a comeback?
No comeback.

I noticed in the preview interview that Megs posted I did not see any Plan B's. Will this bag not be continued or were there just no preview pics?
Yes the Plan B will be back!

When are the new fall colors coming out?
June and July!!!

Do you know which bag(s) will be coming in the Seagreen color and when they will be coming out?
June!

Anyone know whats up with the Elisha... still being made? Coming out in new colours?
Look out for her in other updated shapes!

Dear Ms RM Maven.
I enjoy reading many answers to many questions at once. Here's yet another. Will the "back by popular demand" color emerald come in a mini morning after with new hardware? Do you know when? I'm saving for this one. This would be great.

starryviolet · Apr 22nd, 2008, 07:42 PM

can't wait for that seagreen!

I have a question Maven....are there any plans to produce longer straps that can be worn crossbody? The long straps that are attached to the Steady, No Strings, Getaway satchel, and Elisha are just too short!

RM Maven · Apr 23rd, 2008, 04:50 PM

Hi girls! RM Maven here again and I have more answers for you! :)

Good to know! We will make them longer!

Cayce.Pollard · Apr 23rd, 2008, 06:58 PM
