@keiralaird did you have any luck getting on a waiting list for the mini flap bag, wanted to purchase one too so was wondering if it was worth trying to get added on to a waiting list?

Hey, no absolutely no luck. I’ve done a lot of research and all of the wish lists are closed at the moment so there just seems to be no chance until the new season releases. Only thing is I’ve heard you could potentially be on the wish list for years as the bag is in such high demand!

Thanks for your response - no point being on a waiting list by the sounds of it and am reluctant to buy it second hand for a ridiculously high price. It’s crazy really.

It’s maybe an idea to try the boutique at Heathrow airport T5, I found the SAs there to be very friendly. I do think it’s a case of whatever they have is all they have. I once saw the bag I’d been dreaming about, she let me try it on and another 19 that I liked. Photo for attention 😄7eae7dcf-51cf-45f3-b2a8-cfeb632f8db9.jpeg

Hey, it is a black mini I’m after but normally I don’t even specify the colour and I get the same response! Black is defo the most popular colour though so you might have more chance with another colour

It is actually nuts!! It's a shame that Chanel SAs aren't loyal nor are they willing to build a relationship with anyone (atleast in my experience). I still do not know how their system works. I have purchase 4 bags in total 3 mini flaps and 1 classic flap. My latest experience with buying a mini flap was horrendous. It was months of relentless chasing and begging. I finally did get the bag only after my husband intervened but it left a very bitter taste. This was back in 2022. Now after such a long time I'm interested in another bag, the mini shopping and I've had no luck whatsoever. I even got my name on the wishlist a month before the release. Yet no luck. I got recently informed by the customer service team that the bag was available in my requested boutique but my SA says they never ever got one. Lol it's ridiculous.
If you'd like to chat further, please pm me. I did see a few mini flaps for sale not long ago, so I was under the impression that those are now easy to get.
I wish you all the luck!

I am visiting London next month and thought I would ask after the Mini Flap bag or the Mini Classic bag in dark leather colours. They are unavailable throughout the boutiques. :( oh well, no birthday bag for me!
