So jealous of everyone able to get the mini flap I’ve been trying for months and recently got in contact with SA who has put me on a waiting list but feels like I’ll be waiting a while! Hate how chanel are making it so difficult for people to purchase bags they want !!!! Starting to get very frustrated with how inaccessible their products are lol

That's crazy! I do believe sometimes it's just luck! As I was looking for a mini flap in November and kept calling the London stores on different days and I guess persistence paid off because suddenly there was 1 mini flap in beige available at Harrods one morning and I bought it. But I do read people on here are on waitlists for months and still can't get one
 
I cannot contain my excitement. Finally picked up my mini with handle in light pink. It is absolutely gorgeous!

I turned down both the coco handle and the mini handle in light blue as they leaned a bit too much on the grey side for me.

I was never really interested in the mini handle before but I’ve got to say that this batch of bags is really well made and really nice quality.

(The pink coco handle is mine from 20A lilac)

Has everyone been in to see the new collection yet? What do you think? I’m waiting for my SA to recover from covid before being able to check out my reserves so I haven’t been yet but love seeing all your news additions on here! :biggrin: :loveeyes:

Congrats on your bag! So pretty! How are you finding the top handle style and the thinner chain in comparison to the classic rectangular mini?

Thank you! :heart:

I haven't worn it out yet as I only got it two days ago, but what I would say, is that I didn't realise how well made the mini with top handles were. I never looked at this style before, but with the pink only coming in this style for this season I had to consider it. The bag is really nice and structured. I always find with classic mini rectangles (I have 4 of them) that theres always some sort of issue in terms of crooked flap, crooked base, weird sides to look out for but these were perfect. I almost brought home the blue one with me also! But luckily I talked myself out of it. The only thing I would say though is that the quilts are flatter on this style but I love it nonetheless and wish I added one sooner!

Hello!

Hope you are all safe and well! I was wondering whether anyone has seen or come across any medium classic flaps in black caviar with gold hardware? After sitting on the fence for a while, I’ve decided to purchase the bag. I used to go into the boutiques to try the bag on and they were always readily available, but it seems really hard to come by now. I’ve been calling and asking all stores in London for the last couple of weeks but I have always been told they are out of stock ☹
I was able to purchase one this week from Selfridges with no wait list. I would just got early in the morning and pray you have a nice SA. The first SA I saw told me that they had none, which was a lie as they had 1 in stock. Good luck :heart:

Thanks so much, and congratulations on your beautiful new purchase!

Do you mind me asking which day you went? I did visit Selfridges a few times this week, but they kept telling me to come back to check, as the deliveries are random. As for the boutiques, there are waitlists now which the SA at New Bond St told me is a couple months long for the medium flap.

That’s so interesting on the structure, I wasn’t keen on the style before but I do think it looks kinda cute! Think I’ll watch out for future colours in this style as this season I’m only liking the black which I don’t think I need in my collection

Has anybody come across a black large calfskin Boy with ruthenium hardware? I went in to New Bond St last Saturday and was told there was only a few left in seasonal colours. I'm also going to Heathrow in Feb so have asked to reserve but wont know until the day before.

I got a SA's # but haven't heard back, unfortunately, so would appreciate any tips, even if it's the best way to stay on top of this!

Thanks!
 
Does anyone have a SA number from Bond Street. I met a lady called Roberta but completely forgot to get her details. When calling the Bond Street office they said they can’t help me with details of their colleagues. I can’t go into store for a couple of weeks.

super cute bag. congrattsss .... I was looking for this bag too. could you please share where you found this bag?
 
I bought a new Chanel bag and I forgot to register my new bag at the store with Chanel moi. Now I lost the Chanel link. Anyone has the link be able to post it here? :frown: saw the link on one of the threads long ago but I did not save it down.

I'm in the same position! Does anybody know if bags are automatically registered on purchase or do I have to take my receipt to a Chanel store to register my bag?
