You guys are so sweet! Thanks for calling out to me. It's been an insane several months - I injured my knee with pending surgery, and have some severe case of bronchitis - before that I was out of the country and traveling on business. I haven't stepped foot into a mall since November (can you seriously believe that) and just came on the purse forum to check out what everyone's been up to. I must admit, though, that the inability to log onto TPF or to browse bags has definitely subdued my purchasing as well, which is a good thing, because I've gone on a big BV collecting craze since June 07 and wasn't able to stop. (Btw, my server was down which is why my color swatch images weren't working, but they should be back up by now).
I wanted to update you guys on the status of my large Veneta, however - they're still not finished with it. It was before August, I believe, that I put in the request, then Italy was "on holiday" the entire month of August, so they started in September. Even starting in September, it should be ready by now, but my SA tells me they still are working on it.
It doesn't help that the South Coast Plaza BV store has been under renovations and the SA's have been dispersed to help stores in other regions. I should give my SA a call again to check, now that this reminds me. I already put half of the fee down as a deposit - I wonder how long is too long before I can ask for it back (although they said it was non-refundable).
I miss you guys... and the days I was able to be online more!!! I noticed
boxermom is still saving us from fakes on the Authenticate thread, you're an angel. I hope to be back soon! Just wanted to provide you all with an update. I promise to report in as soon as the long awaited SO large veneta arrives. Keep posting those great posts and fabulous photos. More action pics!!
Love,
Bunkie.
