Me and my mom were talking the other day about selling our Monogram Speedy 30. She's been with around 5 years and was used non-stop. However, we stopped using her since summer after my mom can't stand how dark the patina was and I tried wiping the magic eraser on all over it and now the it turns out even worst!! 
After the incident happened, we left her lonely in the dust bag because we are embarrassed about how her patina looks (just absolutely ugly). Last week when I was back home going through the closet taking pictures of our bags. I found this little baby lying in there and her patina looked a little better from before. But still, not pretty enough that we want to take her out.
So now we're thinking of putting her on sale and buy another Monogram bag to replace her since " Monogram is a MUST HAVE !! ". But this time with the knowledge about water stop and everything, our new monogram bag will be gorgeous for a long time
The problem is.. we can't decide what to buy. We want a bag that is easy to use and can be dress up and down with. It must be a bag which my mom, my sister and me could use together ( 5"6 , 5"8, 5"8 ) and doesn't come with a lot of vachetta to be worry about.
This is what we were thinking about..
- Mono Speedy 30 (but then, why sell and buy the same thing again?)
- Mono Speedy 35 (don't know is it going to be too big for my mom or not. sissy loves big bags!)
- Tivoli PM ( size might be a problem, but not a fan of the gm)
- Palermo PM (in case we might want to use it for traveling. thoughts?)
- Alma ( vachetta base)
- Neverfull MM ( have one in ebene and inlove! )
is there anything else i'm missing? and if it was you, which opinion would you pick and why?
Thank you everyone for coming in, all of your answers are appreciated ; )
p.s attached with this pictures of my speedy
(left: when first wiped with eraser right: how she looked last week)
ETA: Gentle reminder that there's no selling/buying/trading on tPF.It's a bannable offence. Thanks!
