I walked in to ONLY purchase a mono speedy b 35 and walked out with both mono AND damier ebene. It was a no brainer. I'm definitely not trying to enable you into buying both LOL! It was a why not moment for me. Couldn't be happier with both.

Counting down the weeks (3) till I vacation in Hawaii. Dying to get a speedy 25 in monogram. Anyone make a recent purchase on Oahu or the island to know the cost difference? I've tried calling but the wait time is crazy. Any other recommendations of something to pick up at LV while I'm at it? Was thinking a pochette asses nm before they are out of stock.
May I finally join? Introducing my first Speedy ever... Miss de Speedy B 35. I bought her in AZ and was pleasantly surprised to find out she is MIF! I always had the impression most are MIU.
My speedy 30 in Damier ebene with Dinosaur charm from Kate spade....they make my heart sing!!!
In that size I'd choose the DE, just because that's a lot of canvas and a lot of pattern, and the mono would be too much for me. Go try it in person if it's possible
Oh I get it... I really do. Like potato chips, you can't have just one! And you are reminding me how badly I need a mono piece.
I literally jammed one of my kids fleece robes inside, making sure to push out all of the corners/piping and creases with the bulky robe. I just left it in a sunny window for a few days and the warmth did the magic including a little extra patina. All the fold creases and pushed in corner areas dissapeared. Hope that helps.
That charm is so cute! Coach makes some really cool Dino charms too. Kinda pricey ($395) and huge but if I ever see a "REXY" charm at the outlet for less than retail I will definitely get one.
Yes. Hope is not lost. You have to give it a few days though-can't carry it. I know that's not easy LOL!! Just make sure to stuff whatever you use into all the corners so the bag once stuffed and zipped up has all the piping showing properly like it's supposed to. Does that make sense?
Yes it does! Thank you so much for your tip, appreciate it!!
I've stuffed it with stuffing paper the past couple days since I got it and I think it is getting a bit better! Do you think from the description it was a good deal for what I paid? I'm newer to the preloved world, had only been buying new up until a few months ago!

$145.00 and then 30% off for Mom's Day. I love the crystal eye. [emoji106]
The main reason I would say it's a great price is due to the fact that it looks practically unused. It hasn't had much use if any due to the new looking patina. I've seen speedys with filthy black handles, loose threads, super dark patina, almost exposed piping and stains galore actually sell for $300-400 bucks on resell sites like Tradesey, fashonfile, keeks. So I'd say you did good. Enjoy her once the dings and pings are gone. If you have the space, try to keep her stuffed when not in use. If you fold her back down you have to start all over with the extreme stuffing. Once she looks the way she's supposed to you only have to stuff enough to keep the shape.Yes it does! Thank you so much for your tip, appreciate it!!
