Kinda wild that they had it and you still had to specially ask. These companies are rolling in money, however much they claim profits are down. They can afford to provide one special paper bag/sheet of tissue paper/ribbon/sticker set per *item* if they want to, yet people seem to be ordering multiple items and still not coming away with all four across their order.

This was the advantage of the Kusama collab being less popular in the UK - I got a few items from the New Bond Street Store in London, plus a bag from an earlier online order, and I ended up with all the paper bag sizes/colours, endless ribbon, enough tissue paper that I used some of it to wrap my baby niece’s birthday present and a huge amount of stickers (I think one pack came with the purchase, then I got multiple goes of the sticker vending machine they had upstairs).
All this.

It’s just packaging, for crying out loud. I understand using the regular packaging if there was none. What’s the point of holding onto wrapping tissues and ribbons - to the extent that a customer even had to make a special request - when they are already available? 🤦🏻‍♀️
 
Did anyone get the Murakami packaging? That was my only disappointment...mine package didn't come with any TM packaging. The multicolor LV tissue paper is adorable and I was hoping to frame it from some fun wall decor in my closet.

Do you think if I called customer assistance they would send some?
I am the lucky one who got the wrapping paper when I bought it from the boutique. I put a sheet of wrapping paper in a poster frame and it turned out really cute. Sorry for the quality of the photo, it's evening here and everyone is sleeping :)

New Marquita video. She’s now saying there’s a restock on the 10th. Given what I’ve been told by my SA, I fully throw my hands up in the air and give up. Everyone is saying something different. The chaos is the constant we can all count on for this launch. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

My CA said the collection is fully sold out and that is what everyone is being told, however she may be able to order one additional item for me when a restock comes in to fill all the pending orders. Who knows?!
 
Finally unboxed the items I got launch day. I shared my story previously where I went into the store in the evening not really expecting to get anything since most was probably sold out. But I happened to be next to a VIP who ordered a ton of items and rejected these two. I asked my CA if I could take them and she said yes! So these were very much unexpected purchases as I didn’t even know about either items previously.

The All In BB is such a fun bag. I love how versatile it is since it can be worn hand carry, shoulder carry or cross body since it has the adjustable straps. But the thing I love most about it is that it can be worn the “open” way as pictured in all the ads, or you can cinch it up and it becomes a bucket bag! Also pictured are the pink Murakami sunglasses .

Is the MC Speedy 25 supposed to come with two locks? I saw pre launch videos where this bag was shown with two locks. One for the bow decoration and another to lock the top zipper area. It came today and I absolutely love it. It is perfect! I had the ribbon and the cute cardstock decor but no tissue paper. I was a bit sad but I got over it pretty quick once I saw my gorgeous bag!
