Mine arrived today!!! She’s beautiful!!! Hoping that since she’s metallic calfskin instead of lamb, she’ll be more durable… But love her nonetheless!!
Incroyable! I didn't even realize this color was coming- I'll have to pay better attention. The color combination is beautiful! Thank you for the information that calfskin is more durable than lambskin. Enjoy your new bag!

So dilemma (first world problem :/) given what I was offered vs my collection. So originally, I asked for a small gray (lighter) 19 but my SA reserved me the dark which I passed on due to it being to dark. I told my SA I would rather, being so dark almost black, have it be true/classic black instead. He told me there was a long long list for the black but he would put me on it anyways, saying I would probably get it in September or October; it was in mid July. i really didn’t think he would call me so soon. I told him really my heart was set on the beige or gray 19: he was able to reserve a beige for me. I am next in line. However, I get a call from him yesterday, not for the beige 19 but for the black.

Dilemma is do I really need another black bag on my collection and should I get something else instead? I have other black/gold bags of different labels.

My Chanel collection is as follows:

Black caviar classic jumbo, gh
Navy caviar classic jumbo, sh
Black lamb medium boy, gh
Black caviar camera, sh
Red lamb mini, rh
Rose gold reissue, rgh
Light pink Coco handle, gh
Green Trendy, gh
Caramel 19, gh

I really want the beige which I will definitely get no doubt, but was wondering if I should just pass on the black 19 which I was suddenly unexpectedly offered so fast. I honestly think my SA pulled strings for me, because I swear he said 20 people were ahead of me. Do you think I already have the black bag casual covered and should I get something else instead. Also, do you think that 3 Chanel 19s is overkill if I do decide to get the black. Technically, I can get it but yeah, guilty, I feel guilty and bad because these bags aren’t cheap. I want to be more selective and smart in my purchases, be more reasonable. I prefer to stick with classics but again they are even more expensive.

Help!!!
If you get a black 19, I would get the So Black coming I think in either 22c or 22p. That way it’s different from the other black bags you have in your collection. Pass up on the regular black 19 for now.

I would go with what I really want (the classics in your case). I felt bad once and bought something that I did not really love, and ended up not using that bag.
 
Thank you. I just came back from NAC boutique and they have these cf and I do love how the small cf with rose gold hw sits on me and beauty of the chain color that I almost caved in. I thought long and hard, decided to try if I have the luck to wait for the dark grey. Usually I am more of reissue gal, coz of 21a grey attracted me to cf and which I yet to have any in my collection, so I decided to hold and wait for the color/ caviar that my heart yearns for. :crybaby:
Instead, I bought a pair of earrings and necklace home.

I had a chance to see the grey medium cf that you were eyeing for at NAC this morning, but the caviar was too soft for my liking. Not sure if it's just that piece or is it the same for all 21b grey!

Thanks for sharing! How would you describe the color for the pink lambskin?

I too think you have black covered. Just let your SA know asap that you are not going to take the black- it sounds like you buy alot from this SA, so I dont think you need to feel obligated to buy something you are not in love with...these bags are super expensive. Tell your SA you want to spend that same money on something special and unique- for him/her to be on the lookout for something you might like to surprise you???
