Hi Shan29

Japan if you are buying from Ginza boutique is a full 8% tax refund. buying from airport will be abit more cheaper too (mine SLG was 2000 yen cheaper than the price at boutiques without tax) but no classic items, all seasonal stuffs. If you are getting SLGs, airport will be a good place to get it.

if you are buying from takashimaya, daimaru, isetan,etc tax refund is only 6.9%, 1.1% is admin fee.

Can I say buying from Europe such as Paris is still the cheapest among all, right? [emoji848]

Ooh good idea...shall email them nearer my travel date[emoji23] i am not going there yet just that I was thinking seasonals should not run out so fast[emoji38]
 
I haven had time to go down to the boutique [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] but seems like act 1 is out, so im guessing it should be? So far no one has done a reveal or given more info about this bag in the forum though...
Yeah, I'm actually waiting to see if there's any reveal on this bag, but not seen any yet. I'll try to check it out at the boutique this weekend, hopefully there's stocks on this olready hehe.

It's out! Saw the bag this evening at MBS, snapped a shot for you ladies as I recall you inquiring, hope this helps!
Nice! I went to the boutique after seeing your picture. it looks even better in real life with leather interior, the lambskin is so soft and buttery. I really love it, But the color I want only left last piece. Sadzz. :sad:
 
Shan29 - I agree with what Apeo said, with that strap, I feel it's more of a shoulder-carrying bag than crossbody. The handle was fairly heavy imho. It is a stunning blue though, and the lamb is tdf, even the black was lovely.

Apeo, is that the last piece in MBS, or both MBS and NAC? I ended up purchasing my reissue from MBS as my SA (he's really helpful and detail-orientated, worth recommending) from NAC picked up on the stitching flaw from the original new piece and rang MBS to reserve another new piece for me for pick up the same evening. We were keen to ensure the credit goes to him - the receipt happily reflected as much !
