Agree 100%. I have a great SA, but in the past he could only get either my friend or I on a list for the same item not both. The NM store is not as big as the standalone, so they don’t get as much of an item. Also the last two collections, they started doing lottery, and I didn’t place. Last year, I purchased 7 bags from my regular SA, but honestly I had to stray to purchase 3 other bags from different SAs, a few from the stocks page. I know he knows, because he can see my purchase history, and twice I was banned when my reserve came in. I have OCD honestly lol and get impatient sometimes, and honestly if I want things, I go hunting for them even though it takes a lot of time. If my local SA can’t get the items for me as much as he would like, and I really want/need an item I go elsewhere. He is great, but I don’t think he is as proactive as other SAs. I have other SAs texting me available items which he doesn’t quite do. I honestly think he was a little hurt. Not sure if he only had gifts for one or two customers, but yeah he gave my friend a gift but not me, knowing that of course my friend would tell me lol. But yeah, we all gotta do what we gotta do.

I’m the same!! Almost every bag I’ve purchased took SO much time to acquire. Countless hours of research barely begins to scratch the surface, let alone the time communicating. There’s some SA’s I totally trust, but they can’t always get what I want. One SA I’ve been lucky to work with knows the store’s buy several months ahead of time, and other SA’s
I work with had no idea at all. I agree that you gotta do what you gotta do to get that bag, that’s just the truth. If you’re lucky you have an amazing SA that’s up front, has inside knowledge well in advance and delivers. But even then the collections are so large one store never carries everything.

I think SAs should be understandable if we get some bags from different SAs or boutiques. Its not as if everything is available in one store and every SA can give us all the bags we want all at the same time right. My SA is different, Im lucky she is very nice. Im based in SG, today my friend and I was looking at a mini top handle in light pink at MBS boutique. I took a photo and sent it to my SA from NAC boutique and asked her to look out for me. She immediately replied “Why didnt you take it!Omg!”, its as if she is scolding me that I should have bought it already. Lol.

That’s a great SA!!:love: The ones who are good understand that we have to work with other SA’s because store buys are all different.

How could you do that? I’m in the US, trying to place a deposit, and the SA said no more reserve by placing deposit or credit card.

From my understanding dept stores like saks accepts depo. Stand alone i had to sign something so SA can keep my credit card on file. Though im not sure if everyone is offered.. i fee it is. But SA said this is the way i can make purchases and SA put me on reserve for a certain bag

I totally agree to this. There is only one bag i feel that my SA wasnt able to get unless i was late to ask… i had several SA that i message too before but in my country we only have a few stores and they know each other… they get crazy jealous or won’t taken you as a customer if you are with someone they know. But now having actually one is better for me. They do get busy and replies to me sometimes very fast or takes forever. But looking for another SA is just a pain

Anyone got the gold mini flap and can share natural daylight pics? I was really hoping the gold would be more like the champagne gold mini flap from last year that I missed out on. This one just seems so brassy.View attachment 5309338

i was originally on reserve for this but since i have the 21p gold i decided to pass and get something else. This is beautiful as well and actually thought of letting go of my 21p for this but changed my mind because last years has more “texture” which i like a bit more. However if i didn’t have the 21p is get this one

Has anyone gotten the 22P backpack yet? Wondering how it looks in person. Mulling over it. Loving the style and the caviar but I'm just not a fan of brushed gold hardware :hrmm:

Mine just came in today, and it’s being shipped to me. It’s stunning. I spoke to someone on IG who has the bag and she says the caviar is gorgeous. I love the brushed gold hardware! It ages well and is less prone to scratches. I think it looks great, especially on this backpack!!! I love that they used regular gold for the hardware instead of lghw. Not a fan of the lghw on black backpacks. It doesn’t look like it’s “enough” and imo makes the backpack not look as luxe.

Hello! Sharing pics of what I was able to get from the collection! If anyone else has purchased this seasons caviar cfs, have you noticed any issues with the seams or paint? Mine isn’t too noticeable until you really examine it and the leather at the seams almost look like they’re overstretched. Also there was a little uneven paint on the bottom - it’s a little flap of paint. Thoughts? View attachment 5309071View attachment 5309072View attachment 5309075

Yikes! Return that asap. No no no no no. You just spent nearly $10K or close to it - not acceptable.

Congratulations on your purchase. The blue M classic is beautiful. I think you need to return it because of the mask

Thank you! Not exactly a true light blue. It has more grey tones to it and unfortunately that photo made it look darker than it is irl. I would say it’s a dusky light blue lol.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the blue caviar classic in 22P. I also heard the same thing from other girl posted her YouTube about the blue classic. 22S also has light blue NH626 and I believe it is a true light blue
