Navy Small Cabas

Thanks for letting me know. That's wonderful. The mini size is the one with the long strap right?
Do you think USD 656 for the S size (the one in the pic above) would be overpriced for a bag like this?
All the women I saw were carrying the mini handheld, none were using a long strap, but based on what I've seen it seems very common for Japanese women to carry handheld mini bags regardless of brand. Personally, I would not pay $656 for a canvas bag, but that's just my opinion! :)

Boy Chanel Strap Screw Replacement

I think you can just go into a store and they‘ll send it in for a repair. If you‘re lucky they might be able to replace it in store
Definitely take it to a Chanel store.

Thanks for the quick replies! I’ll call a store today and ask about it. I don’t live near a Chanel store anymore so going to one isn’t much of an option. I’ll see what they say though. I hope I don’t have to send the bag away for a small screw that I can just twist into place myself.

Question - six digit serial numbers

Hi,

I am about to purchase Chanel classic flap - small and it has serial number 1XXXXX.
Exactly the same as yours, the number print on white sticker without CC logo.

It's so hard to find any website posted an example about this 6 digits model :( Since it's really old.

Could you please confirm is it authentic?

Biggg thankssss

Dior fard color?

Dior lambskin is pretty durable. I have a small LD in fard and it still looks like new after two years. Hope it helps!
Lambskin over patent. I have a black (noir) patent micro lady and for patent I would only ever go with black. Patent tends to get colors from fabrics or anything it might be placed on top on and when this happens, it is close to impossible to treat it. Dior Lambskin is very durable don’t worry. This is based from experience of having a red patent. It mysteriously got black splotches from I don’t know where from storage and it was impossible to remove even by pros.

affinity bag or double flap 2.55 classic?

Difficult one! I have a small BA and two 2.55’s in 226 size. I love both these styles but they’re pretty different! What are you looking to use it for?

I’m personally a bigger fan of the 2.55, my most used 2.55 is black aged calfskin with RHW, it’s easy to dress up or wear super casually and the size is perfect. BA is fairly casual but depends what size your after.

everyday use, except for work, need a bag that fits a lot in it.. why im not a fan of those small bags, ive also read that the strap on affinity bags are long and not adjustable, im a small person

Help please, shopping at Boutique has gotten challenging!

You're welcome! In terms of the weight of the bag, I think the LockMe might be lighter since it's so soft, but the epi leather is not too heavy either. For a daily-wear bag, I would go with the Grenelle over the LockMe since the epi leather feels sturdier to me, and that is an important consideration for a bag I will use on a regular basis.

It is good if you can see these bags in person, put your essentials in them, and try on before purchasing. Regarding the Twist, I think the chain detail on the black version makes the bag a little more dressy. Also, if you like the top handle style, there is the Georges in empreinte leather. I did not try it on and it does have compartments, but if you are in the boutique, you may want to take a look at it as well. Good luck with your decision!
Thanks so much,Ill take a look at it.

Shipping from France to the US in COVID times--how long does it take?

I order an item from overseas thinking it would take a month. Tracking stopped when it arrived in the US. It was delivered in 2 weeks to my surprise.
I ordered an item from France in mid-July and it took 2 weeks to arrive to Calif.
Had an order from France shipped Friday and arrived the following Wednesday.
I ordered sth from Germany 2 weeks ago, but it haven't been here yet...
I just can speak for myself, living in Germany. Each time I ordered something from Asia I got it quite fast despite the corona situation worldwide (which means within 1-2 weeks). I ordered a bag from Celine from their website 2 weeks ago and it was here within 2 days. The package came from Italy, which is our neighbor country obviously but it surprised me to see no big differences concerning the shipping.. no matter from where it‘s being delivered - compared to former „normal“ times.
In France it totally depends on the area and they are taking precautions very seriously, if anybody from the post office had a positive test or has to self isolated due to member of the household, apparently they don't move anything. Could be something like that? I recently had a parcel being stuck along the way I sent to a family member in France for that reason.

I'm guessing maybe the post offices in France have lower staffing. I had three packages come from this seller and each sat in France for a little over a week before it got sent out, but then it proceeded normally (from NY to Southern California where I am). So altogether maybe two weeks per package from order to delivery, not too bad fortunately!

Help. Ebay says it a fake.

Thanks for the response. Ebay will not tell me why they deem it a fake. That would violate the policy of their "brand experts". I suspect they are unaware of eight digit serial numbers. Stitching is perfect. Metal parts look quality. No clue. This bag was definitely pre-1994. This may be the first one I purchased for my wife. The other Coach bags I have on ebay were ok. In fact, the ebay representative was very apologetic. BTW. No appeals. If I resubmit it with proper "documentation" they may consider it. BUT, if I repost it and they do not agree, my account will be suspended. "catch 22." Thanks.

Again, authenticity questions should be posted in the correct forum thread, those are the rules that help keep this very large site organized and help guide people with specialized knowledge to the posters who need help. Spreading questions over 2 posts in 2 different subforums just creates confusion. It's called double posting and is discouraged or forbidden on every major forum.


You need a professional authentication and need to contact Authenticate4U using their Facebook page.


And we STILL need to see the Ebay message. Add the information and a link to this post
to what you posted yesterday,

and please DON'T add anything else to this post.
