Btw, if anyone is interested in a 25cm, the Gold Coast H boutique had it in black with phw. I didn't ask for the price as to not tempt myself 
ush: but I do know that they've already had a price increase while I was there on vacation. I went twice, once before the hike and another time again about a week later and a croc havanne lindy 30cm went from being retailed at $32k oz to $41k oz!!

<-------Love the constance!!!!! When we cycle back into smaller bags, I am ready for action!!! This is toile and a retired grey color.
Thanks H&H! I do love it so. The SA told me they ordered it in 2005 and they only received it last month. It was love a first sight for me! Wanted to do a reveal together with my new Kelly but somehow i cant upload the pics! Anyway.. i think its a neat little bag even for casualwear.
I'm not sure sometimes you need to make so many posts before you can do so and another thing the files should not exceed a certain amount... Can't wait to see your Kelly.
My 23cm is in Epsom. I have to say that I am surprised at how much I love the Constance; I was always a little averse to it because of the big "H" on it, but I'm a convert. The newer Constances have two compartments versus the one main one you see on the vintage ones, and the 23 cm can fit quite a bit. The main advantage of a 23cm Constance over a 25cm Birkin is the shoulder strap which can then double and go over your arm. I cannot get a 25cm on the crook of my arm. Yes, they are pricey--I think about $6,950 last year for Epsom, in the $7k range then for Chevre, but are a great example of H-craftsmanship. Even friends of mine who know nothing about H love the lady-like silhouette of the bag.
misssA, that pink constance is such a pleasant pop of color! I'm not usually a pink kinda girl but hot pink is such an intense and gorgeous color, not to mention CHIC too! Congrats!
And EncoreHermes, I LOVE love toile and this combo with the grey, its my favorite color! COngrats on such a rare and chic find!!

I managed to upload my avatar pic but thats it. The other pics were taken with my Nikon D80 and they exceeded the file size limit. I read somewhere that you can resize it but i haven't gone round to do it yet-cant remember which thread it was in too!
Opps i'm digressing..sorry! I hope you find your bag soon MissMargaux!
And thanks maddox for your lovely comments!

Yes I saw the blue, I think I want black, this one is fab but way more than I want to pay too.
Gotta go to my dance class I'll be back later.
thank you so much, I'll be thinking about the blue.
I have so much to comment on, later ladies, thanks so much. You all have made me really want one now. and I'm on a sort of ban but what the heck life is short No?
MissMargaux, I hope you wont give up on trying to locate the perfect constance 
I recently acquired one in a croc and find it to be one of THE most versatile bags to own. First of all, I agree.. it ISNT a birkin. However, the constance goes from casual to chic in an instant(yes, even with my croc!) So I would imagine a black chamonix or box would be even easier to switch from day to night. Its such an under the radar classic chic H bag and as much as you can't go wrong with a birkin (even with a 25cm, though I personally don't like them that small) I think the constance would make the perfect bag for the reasons you stated earlier 
Whatever you decide, we here will be here waiting anxiously for your reveal! Good luck in your search for that perfect dinner/travel bag and keep us posted
