I am going through a similar situation with a NM chanel. I purchased a 19 leather flap in august 2020, and it was charged to my CC, sent to my vacation home and everything verified no problems. Fast forward to March 2nd, I wanted to buy a key pouch using all the same info on file with the same store and same SA... Because it was my vacation home it was denied.

My purchase history and the fact that nothing had changed didn't make a difference. Since that happened, I changed my billing info on the card to my vacation home so that everything matches... They still do not want to process the transaction. So apparently now the manager at CC and the manager at NM are working together to push it through... but I haven't heard anything in the past week, so I assume no new is news in itself. Very frustrating since I have a purchase history, was on the waitlist for another bag and not can't buy anything from them anymore... Meanwhile VISA veryfied all the information, everything was a match and CC is still refusing to charge the transaction.
Well this really is frustrating! Sounds like this is just for Neimans? Because I never had an issue with Saks. I use my husband's card all the time and the order is under my name.
I have cancelled the order now. I cannot deal with the stress any more. A luxury purchase should not be like this-stressful and cumbersome. Takes away all the fun.

I agree. I understand the need for security and measures to avoid fraudulent activity, but seriously, I am an existing customer, using all my information already on file, information which was verified by visa...

I've recently connected with a new SA from Nordstrom, she will be billing my purchase tomorrow so that I can benefit from their points event. I am afraid that there will be an issue, but if you are telling me that there was no issue with saks, I am hopeful that tomorrow's transaction will go smoothly and I can begin establisg a new rapport with a new SA from a different location.

I know a very good Saks SA. Two of them actually. PM me if you want more details. I think you may need a purchase history at Saks though. When I called to make my first purchase , the SA said I have to come in.
Fingers crossed it goes smooth for you tomorrow though and you won’t even need to call Saks!
 
Hi there! Im new to purseblog. Have previously read through posts before a purchase and becoming more active now.
With that said, I got my hands on the brown/ caramel 19. I honestly purchased it based on online images/ blogger posts etc. now that I have it, Im honestly not impressed. Its very matte, and just not making me happy. I have a pink one I was thinking about selling and honestly I think I have more heart for it. It will grow on me and wont sell, I know I would regret then but does anyone else feel same way about the 19 in brown? I tried taking images but they are coming out better than what Im seeing at home. Maybe I need to look at it again tomorrow.

Its very matte brown, not anything like the online images, dont hate on me but I feel disappointed? Anyone else? It will grow on me and Im sure I will keep it but Im more excited about the pink 19 I got which I thought I would sell to fund this. Either way, just wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on the 19 in brown/ caramel.

Thank you! Yes, fingers crossed will let you know how it goes!
 
It is a beautiful bag!!! It also depends if this bag and the kind of material fit in your lifestyle. It's still a nice starter bag if you really like it and you can try a leather bag on your next Chanel bag purchase. Caviar is my favorite. I'm not sure how tweed bags hold their value. My first Chanel bag is a black jumbo CF in caviar with GHW two years ago for only $6,200. It took me a while to decide getting a tweed bag after purchasing 7 more Chanel bags in different sizes, colors, and leather materials. For this Spring 21 collection, I was drawn to the blue tweed mini rectangular, a size I don't have. I am on the reserve list and this will be my first tweed bag. I also just bought the raffia flap bag in red and beige to add variety in my collection. I know I won't add a solid red bag in my collection. Let me know what you decide. Welcome to this crazy but exciting world of Chanel!!!

Hi there! Did you finally get the blue/turquoise tweed mini? ISO of this but unfortunately it seems to be out of stock....
 
Hi, I think this necklace is from 21p, does anyone know if it comes in two different sizes?? One looks significantly smaller in one of the website photos than the other! If there are two different sizes would they have different codes?85F7A708-8B53-4C75-B914-9EDB96109288.png
