Does anyone know which colors are coming for Coco handle and mini square? Thank you in advance
Has anyone who is not VIP successfully preordered? I have a few SAs but most have said they’re not taking orders yet?

Not ordering any this season but been doing that for a few seasons and had no problem so farMy SA said it is an emerald green coming. 
I think someone has to come with be because I want to buy two bags

I have one at stand alone boutique and one at department store that would do that for me. I think it really depends on the relationship between you and your sa. Both of them did not offer me that when I first shopped with them. You might think it’s such a nice cool perk but that’s not all there is. I bought loads of bags and other things last year before Chl put limits on purchases. But not even one third of my purchases come from the preorder. In order to place the preorder, I have to do that months in advance by looking at the teeny tiny swatches. You all know how accurate those swatches are
. So I’ve never placed the order if I’m not 100% sure I’d like it. However more often than not, the colors in person look way off than the swatches. When that happens, I’d just suck it up and keep it. You probably can return once or twice in a blue moon. But if you keep doing that, the sa might think you’re just wasting their time and not offering to preorder your bags in the future. I try to make my sa happy by sending them small gifts and I always very polite when I talk to them. I’d suggest you to build a relationship with an sa that you click with and hopefully he/she will offer you that in the near future Edit to say. One cool thing about preordering, let’s say US doesn’t order a certain color or size, when you preorder, the sa can include that in their buy. Of course, unless Chl decides to either cut down on production or cancel it altogether, otherwise, you would be able to get it

I’ve never returned a purchase at Chanel but if I’m not happy with a bag on first look I won’t buy it. I’m sure has hell not keeping a bag I don’t like at that price. I’ve bought 4 things so far at Chanel with the same SA including RTW but I think the store and their policies just suck, period.
Can someone let me know are the mini top handles in this collection??? Tia
In that case I'd try to find new SAs from other stores. Some times stores in huge cities with LOTS OF demand can only do so much. My home boutique is like that, that's why I have and will continue to shop remotely. To me shopping at Chanel as a non VIP client just isn't great overall, BUT having a SA that clicks really does make it sooo much better! I really agree with what @M00 said above, always be polite with SAs and even bring them small gifts once in a while. I just don't buy enough to be important *in the Chanel system*, yet I can still feel that my SA thinks and cares about me from those holidays cards she sends me and from those carefully packaged merchandise. And bc of these gestures from her, I want to be nice to her in return as well. But anyway, all I'm trying to say is wonderful SAs are out there I promise LOL
It just takes a while to discover them and maybe a little more time to develop the relationship (kind of like dating), it take s a few tries minimum. But sending you good vibes in the meantime and good luck 
You’re definitely on point. I also like to shop at small stores. The stores I regularly shop at usually only have 2 of each max. So if I don’t reserve, I’m pretty much out of luck and have to look elsewhere. But the sa is more attentive to me and usually remembers what I’m interested inIn that case I'd try to find new SAs from other stores.
