How do you all feel about the resin bag charms? Do they feel cheaply made? I'm looking at one of the tea rose ones on the FOS and it's all glittery so I'm not sure if that'd distract from the Nolita I just got, so I'm *also* looking at one of the FP ones, but I don't wanna spend $95 if I can spend much less and get the same quality.
 
I believe you can also refuse the package and it will be sent back.


Here is a mini reveal of the Mini Christie Carryall from the previous Outlet online sale. I also got my first Coach Robot charm -- I think it's a nice as the FP version! It's perfect for this very mini bag, haha!

Beautiful bag! I have that little robot fob and I think it is great but I have read that the clasp may open and you can lose the fob. I am using the hangtag chain as a security chain. You can see it in the picture below while I was trying to pic out fobs. Sometimes I add a small ball chain as a second chain and safety guard to a fob that may be at risk.

I took comparison pics of my FP robot fob and the MFF fob and I think that they are of very similar quality:

I wish I had known before I used and lost my robot fob. The ring is all that I have left. :sad:

So sorry to hear that, he is such a cute charm!

Here is another picture showing the use of a ball chain as a safety guard on a valuable fob. It is not a perfect solution because one of the ice skates could still get ripped off, but it makes me feel a bit more secure having the extra chain and I don't think that it looks bad.

Thanks katev for the picture. It looks good. The bal chain blends right in. I will give it a try.

Some people think they look cheap. Someone said the FP one looked cheap so I'm not sure there is that much difference between FP and factory, other than colors. I saw the factory ones today and couldn't decide if I liked them or not. They are fairly lightweight but I didn't think they looked cheap. The glittery ones are very glittery. I was more interested in the nonglittery ones but none of the color combinations wowed me.

I didn't like the MFF charms at all, I thought that they were too big and bulky. I wouldn't call them "cheap" but the glitter makes them look "flashy" and that's not my style. They had them attached to a lot of bags on display at the outlet on Saturday, and I didn't feel that they added much to the bags.

I also think that they would be much too large for a Nolita, a smaller charm works better with a smaller bag, but again that's just my opinion.

I saw the red tea rose resin charm at the boutique recently. It was smaller, but still a large fob, and it was better made. I liked it a lot more than the big MFF resin rose charms but I wouldn't buy it unless I felt that it was perfect for a specific bag. And I really don't like spending so much on fobs so I might pass on it even then.

But it is up to you and what you like is all that's important. Is it possible for you to take your Nolita to the outlet to try it with the MFF charms? I made the mistake of ordering one of the fobs on the FOS before they were all over the outlet. I returned it at the outlet but had to pay the shipping costs. I'll try not to make that mistake again!
