I'm in the US and was hoping to pick up the Nice Mini but no luck. I was actually in the waiting room at 7:30 am but wasn't admitted until around 10am--by then nothing was available. That said, I was also on the app at 7:30 and saw everything become available multiple times, but received error messages every time I'd add to cart, or, if I succeeded in adding to cart, couldn't complete the checkout process. Very frustrating.

I'm in Miami, so going to the Design District location on the 21st is an option (my "home" boutique is actually in Coral Gables), but I'm not one to camp out and line up--especially if inventory may not actually be available. I have my dignity and don't need to play games to spend money, nor am I interested in fighting for the dregs of this collection. If the DD CAs are able to order the Nice for later fulfillment, however, that is totally acceptable and I'd try to drop by.

Like many of you, I find it's the lack of transparency that's problematic, as it doesn't allow one to adequately plan a strategy. My CA helped me to have a successful Multicolore experience, but there wasn't much she could do for the Cherry Blossom situation, and it ended up being a total flop for me.

I'm not opposed to purchasing from a reseller, but I'd be concerned about authenticity. I hadn't realize that counterfeit items had gotten so advanced and nuanced since the original collections 20 years ago. I'd rather not have an item than have one that's counterfeit.
 
Speedy is ATC in US right now whoever is awake

Aaand it’s back to notify me.. wow that changed so fast.
I’m not interested in purchasing so not sure if it will go through but currently showing as add to cart. Gave me an error code a few times before actually adding to cart. If you’re up in US might want to see.

Edit* back to showing as notify me just that quick.

I had this in my cart but it wouldn't let me check out in the app so I tried via web browser on the computer and then it was no longer available. I've been trying to check out since yesterday morning!:panic:
 
We need - aside from more stock - an international network to get what we want. 😄 I put *effort* into deciding if I wanted to get the Alma BB and it wasn’t even available in Hong Kong?! Obviously I’m biased as it was my favourite item but it seems like such a key piece to miss out. There were only two all pink bags.

Honestly these regional restrictions are annoying. I can sort of understand Japan exclusives given Murakami is Japanese, although according to this forum he and/or his LV line are actually less popular there. But entire continents that don’t get any wallets? Or don’t have the cheaper (“cheaper” lol) trinkets like charms and silks? Weird.
Totally. Alma BB is ATB in my app. But no furry charm. I really refuse to pay overprice for resellers. We did get not so much pieces here. Such a shame. But then again, good for my bank account.
