Hello ladies,
I’ll be visiting Singapore very soon and I’m wondering which Chanel boutique carries more varieties(colors/sizes)? NGA or MBS?
Also, in general are the brands more expensive in singapore? I’m coming from Dubai incase someone knows the price differences.

Thanks!
 
Wow thank you so much for your reply! I've been scouring many Chanel boutiques for mini rectangle as my first Chanel bag and I still haven't got one, which is rather sad :sad: I guess it will be near-impossible to find one in Singapore's boutique as well, with what you have said, since I do not know any SA.
Even if you know any SA, without regular purchase history, it is pretty impossible to get in SG (for quilted). But if you are looking for chevron one, it is possible - depending it is available for the season.
 
Hi.. am also hoping to get a Chanel mini rectangle in the Singapore boutique.. but I understand it would be extremely difficult and in fact even impossible :(

That’s a real shame :( the mini would be my first Chanel ever - and even though I could get my friends over in UK to help me seek out one where they are located, I was hoping to get the whole experience of entering the boutique, and picking out the bag myself.

Is there really no way I could get hold of one? I don’t have any SAs contacts either. It’s so daunting to walk into the boutique to enquire as well.

It’s not impossible! If you don’t have your heart set on black caviar, other colours and leathers are available for walk-ins.

oooh thanks for the clarification! so it’s only the black caviar that is hard to get? My dream combi is black caviar with silver HW but if a dark grey or navy blue caviar is available I would jump at it too [emoji4]

Relatively speaking, is it easier to get hold of a black caviar mini overseas? Or is that combi a rare find regardless of countries?

Also - do you recommend the chevron or the quilt for a first Chanel bag? I like the quilt for its classic style but I find the chevron very modern looking too.

Echoing what was said above, it’s not impossible if you are not fixed on black caviar!

in Singapore the black caviar minis (both rectangle and square) are on an allocation basis. Meaning you have to get your name on a wait list then when stocks come in the manager will review the list and determine which customer gets it (allegedly, priority given to those who have never purchased a mini before and with a purchase history). So sadly, your dream bag is quite impossible to get.

Have a look at the mini clubhouse thread and you’ll find that the black caviar combination is highly coveted almost worldwide!

Where are you currently based? Is there a Chanel there for you to start a relationship with an SA? I find that having a good relationship with your SA helps when it comes to securing hard-to-find bags!
 
Hi pie! Thanks so much for your kind explanation :) appreciate it lots.

Hmm looks like I won’t be able to get my hands on a black caviar mini.. perhaps I would just get another colour for the mini and satisfy the the black caviar combi for a m/l flap later on in life [emoji4]

I’m based in Singapore! I could visit the NAC or MBS boutiques but i find it quite intimidating to do so... just the feeling of being “assessed” by the SAs..
 
Hi Ladies!

May I know what are the warranty and repair policies for shoes?

Bought the espadrilles back in June 2018 and have only worn it less than 5 times. However the inner sole is starting to slip and bunch. Not sure if this a normal occurrence with espadrilles and if this warrants a repair from them?

Would love to hear you opinions!
