is it dumb.....?

No, not at all! I have 3 Speedys (Mono 30, Damier 25 & 30) and I would love to get the Mini Lin Speedy. Go for it!!! It's a classic bag no matter what the material is...
 
Gosh I don't think so, especially since I have a Damier, Mono & Mini Lin. :love: And have my eye on an epi Speedy next year.

The one thing I did learn is the 30 is such a perfect size for me that when I went to switch to my only 25 (the Damier) today it seemed too small.
 
ITA with almost everyone here! You can NEVER have too many speedies! It is the iconic LV bag. I have regular damier, azur damier, monogram, and Fringe. I never thought twice about making any of the purchases! ;)
