HI LADIES! I caved in and bought myself a mini pashli. I had my heart set on getting the black one but my SA brought me the navy with black embossed one just in case. I really liked the color combination so that is what I got!
How well do these bags hold up? Can I be fairly rough with it?

This bag is gorgeous! I love the color. I don't own one myself, but I read in this thread that some people had issues with gunmetal hardware chipping.
Oh no!! Do the brass colored ones hold up better? I have some metal glaze... do you think that will work to prevent chipping?
I think most of the chipping issues were with the gunmetal and black hardware. If you do a search on this thread on the word chipping some of the posts will come up. One poster said she put clear nailpolish on the hardware so maybe a glaze will work.
Here's my mini Pashli in burgundy/black shark embossed leather that I got back in September...just wasn't able to post this earlier. It definitely fits more than I thought - even my Balenciaga continental wallet fits with lots of room left for my cellphone and sunglasses (in a smaller case though) and other essentials. The photo doesn't capture the exact color as this has an Instagram filter over it (LOL sorry) but it's this really, really dark purple that's almost black (kinda like dark dark cherry) and I love it! AND I'm not a fan of the color purple.
At first I was very apprehensive about the leather because it had an almost plasticky look to it, but now it's a little softer but still absolutely sturdy the way it should be. I love this little bag for going out and about, running errands, nights out.
PS - this has gunmetal hardware and because I read about the chipping issues here, I try to be really careful. But the clasp design itself somehow lends to scratching the metal if you can't master the best way to secure it...So just be careful!

Hi Ladies, I just purcahsed this Pashli on eBay. There's only a few photos, but any red flags? It looked fine to me but I hope I didn't just purchase a counterfeit bag!

Hi there! I'm no expert but in my opinion the pictures are too distorted, no pics of inside, the back or hardware of the bag, description wasn't clear or helpful either. Try and ask if they can provide you a receipt! I'm really scared to buy designer bags on eBay since there are sooo many counterfeits and some of them look or feel ridiculously close to authentic!
