Can you post pics of the red? I’m deciding between red or black square mini. I like black but the waitlist is so long. I might have a better chance with the red.
This might help, i saw this from previous discussions. Link for video. Credit to owner.
Photo from a personal shopper, you can see how the shade shifts depending on how it hits the light.

I am the same, I did not like the 20s it is on the orange side. I am in loveee with this bag. The deep color is even better in person especially with shw. Originally I wanted caviar but didn’t want it preowned (the price is higher for a used bag Waw!!) and lamb is the only option. It’s my first lamb and I’m surprised that its not as sensitive as I heard (maybe it’s this bag or the color not sure) and the structure is sturdy and fits as much as my new medium boy. I personally wanted a rectangular for the red mini because I plan to dress it up sometimes while it still looks casual with jeans as I am more of a casual person. I’m reserving the square for tan or black in the future.
Here is my bag pic
More pictures of the 20b burgundy! And a comparison to the 20s navy, if that helps anyone.
Thanks for sharing! I’m excited to get this bag. I actually wanted a square because I’m petite and it would suit my frame better. But it’s hard to miss out on a red. The price might reach 5k before I find another red to my liking ♀️ This will be my first lambskin as well. Yes, the silver makes it more casual IMO. I guess I’ll take your cue to reserve the square for a different color. Haha
Of course. It is also my first mini so I am experimenting with the chain (note I am 5.9) and found that I can shorten the chain by wrapping it inside and it made it look cute. I also heard you can get some clips from amazon. OMG 5k seriously!!! I don’t think it’s worth that amount.. I am glad I got one and checked it off my list
I’m just thinking far ahead given that price increases happen at least once a year and each season is a different variation of red, from 17b, 18b, 19b, 20s, to 20b. Who knows when the right shade for you will be in available again.Of course.

did you buy the burgundy? it seems to show up different in pictures than in person and in different lighting.
I did not! I hadn't planned for the purchase, so I went home to think about it. There are a few floating around at least, and if someone gets it before me, that's me out of luck!
I would definitely call it a cameloen bag. It's fairly dark in person (and I actually liked it on person more than I did from pictures). Totally understand what people meant about brown undertones.
I bought it yesterday!! I’m conflicted about it though! I’m the opposite in that I tend to like it more in pictures than in person. It looks redder in pictures and browner in person. The SLGs look amazing in my opinion! Maybe I need to just stare it and decide!
Take some pictures of it on! Even video. I've always found that helps me decide on whether or not a color works for me/if I really like it. (And then you can share here if you wantI bought it yesterday!! I’m conflicted about it though! I’m the opposite in that I tend to like it more in pictures than in person.

) but if you're really conflicted, it might be prudent to search for a different red.
