Quick question: is the chain on mini top handle removeable? and how are you finding the length of that chain (compared to other minis)?

I've never considered buying a mini top handle, but I might break my own rule since I'm loving this shade of pink:biggrin: TIA!
The chain is not removable, but I love the length when I wear my jacket or coat. It looks really good when I put the bag towards the back crossbody. I can also double strap it to make it a shoulder bag. I love the top handle, because I use it a lot. When I leave a restaurant/taxi I take the bag by the handle and it's so easy to "handle," because I'm not accidentally knocking the bag into something by grabbing it by the chain.
 
It’s disgusting really. We’re here to drop tons of cash yet they treat us like we’re not worthy. I normally go to Yorkdale and they’re just appalling. It’s so shocking how different it is in Europe. It felt like a spa day with the champagne and actual service!!

I have had HORRIBLE experience in Europe, where the SA watched me like a hawk and would only let me look at the SLG's from afar (like, behind the counter where it was not arm's reach)! She wouldn't even let me feel the leather or try the zipper until I confirm that was the SLG I wanted to purchase. On the other hand, pre-COVID, the Vancouver Chanel would offer drinks near the front door on launch date.

I didn't go to the store, but I asked my SA from Tyson before the launch. She told me her store does not order iridescent flap card holder, which was what I wanted.
Hi! Are you talking about the Tyson mall in Virginia? If your SA works in this Tyson, would it be possible for you to help me ask your SA whether the store still has small black leboy in stock? Thank you so much!

Why do they still come up to me in the boutique when I take a quick photo and snap, "no pictures!" And not just me -- but all the women taking photos for whatever reason. Some shoppers just turn around and give them a withering look, but that's another story...

This woman did a whole advertisement for them.
I wondered the same thing lol

Wait they do that?! I always take photos and never been told not to… that’s so weird. I literally had a sales person take a pic of me wearing the bag before to send to my mom to help me decide. Is this in the US? Maybe diff country diff policy?!

Thanks for sharing this! I’m waiting for the mini in gold and this makes me excited… but hopefully it wont be a disappointment IRL .. keeping my fingers crossed :smile:
I think gold color comes in wallet as well, someone posted it on stock thread sorry can’t remember the name.
But I think this is same color that will be on mini! It is a stunning metallic gold I believe. Happy hunting! Plz post them here if you get one!

Wow interesting!! I was in Paris and Barcelona and they treated me like gold. A whole bottle of Champagne, my bf and I walked out of there tipsy :P sorry you had a crappy experience in Europe :( at these prices (or any price actually), paying customers should be treated nicely.

Canada for me. Honestly I think it depends on the SA and if they think you’re copying their bags to make reps. I take pictures all the time in Toronto but I’ve had friends who got yelled at by security for taking pics.

Sorry off-topic, but just to chime in: I was about to take pics of bags in the boutique of another luxury brand, but asked my SA first. He told me because I was a known client it would be fine for me. But for new clients, they don't allow due to the recent rash of luxury store robberies. Maybe that's the reason for Chanel as well...
