Hi y'all. Was searching through threads for something on the Self Service. Does anyone have this bag? Reviews please?

My newest Tano...

I had one (my reveal)...I ordered it from TOB, in grape, and really liked it, but I had kind of went nuts with bags, and so I ended up returning it...at the time, I was in love with my green apple women unite...

It was a nice bag though...and it has 3 compartments...center was a zip the two sides magnetic...

I am trying to recall how it was in relation to the Immeasureable...Self Service is a smaller bag if I recall correctly...

Anyways, hope my post when I had the bag in my hands helps...if you have any other questions, let me know and since I have seen one IRL, I can try to answer!

I think Watson's Mom also had one in avocado...

Thanks! I saw a grape one at a decent price on the bay, but from what you say, it seems a little smallish. I really can't afford to get a new bag right now, but am feeling VERY antsy!! Trying to move the Kitty Crowbar I got a couple of weeks ago... decided she was too big for me and I'd never use her. Had a cobalt FN on pre-order then canceled. The indecision!! I'd love something in cobalt. It's been a tough month for vet bills

Cobalt French Nanny is talking to me as well!

And Vet bills...yea, those stink! Hope all is well now!

I remember (I think?) voodoo being crazy about this bag too... I can't remember if she ever ordered one or not though?

I have one - found it a while back on sale in pom. I love it - the shoulder strap is really comfortable, and it has the multiple compartments that I really like (why didn't I know the depeche is like that? try finding one now). The front pockets don't get much use - having the three bigger ones does it for me. More of a flat bag - not a bucket. You can't go by me, though - I haven't met many tanos I didn't like (one exception - the being uma - just too darn big for me but the blueberry color was divine).

Yeah I was crazy about this bag but I never ordered one for reasons that don't seem clear to me right this moment hahaha

Odebdo · Jul 1st, 2009, 11:27 AM

Bike Chick...the depeche is still available (or was last time I checked) at TOB!

Don't tempt me - I am weak...do you know how much trouble I am in already??? Race season is not over yet though - and there is the fall, when I think I am really going to be in trouble. Am trying to save up a little - heading for a bike tour in VT in two weeks. Can't wait to beat the heat.

No work today, so I'm spending some time this morning in the A/C looking at handbags. As far as a couple of the "older" models, I'm looking at this Self Service again, as well as the Depeche. Any opinions as to which one you like better than the other?

Joan

Voodoo · Aug 5th, 2009, 10:02 AM

^^Get both!!!!!! haha... I dunno... it's a toss up. I really prefer limited outside pockets so I'll vote Depeche....

Odebdo · Aug 5th, 2009, 11:07 AM

I like both! I know...no help!

Celts20 · Aug 5th, 2009, 11:30 AM

What the heck, put a bid on the Depeche. If I win it I win it, if I don't, oh well

Voodoo · Aug 5th, 2009, 11:41 AM

^^Rock out! Which one??
