Mine said the same re preorder - not for leather goods. And release date is 11/5. But 11/5 vs 11/15 is close enough one may have a typo.

i like certain classic bag styles and playing card design is very me so I really wanted a speedy 25b. 30 is just too big. Hope there’s slg or something with playing cards.

really envy the ladies who are vic. I think those are probably the only people able to place preorders.<smile>.
I can’t preorder but my CA put me on the waitlist for a toiletry and bandeau. Whatever that really means. Preordering ability might be about VIC status and also the market you are in, which would explain some of the variation. I’m in the Chicagoland area.

to preorder, it looks like you have to be a VIC, or find an IG seller who has those connections. there was one item i really wanted so i did it that way - paid about 10% extra fee, but worth it for me

the CAs i contacted (about 3-4) all said they could not do it for me, and I didn't want to take the chance of missing out. I am on at least 3 waitlists though, but as far as I understand, that does not guarantee you will get it -- too risky imo

It is risky to be on more than one waitlist- LV staff are able to see this if it is actually entered into the system. It could indicate you are a reseller. If it is a private waitlist by individual CA's then maybe it is ok. It does seem odd though that obvious resellers (on IG) are able to purchase multiples. I thought LV was trying to discourage that. I am glad you found a way to secure the item you want.

I thought they looked like 30s too. Someone on ig said the blanc speedy was 25. And I was shocked when I saw that strap. They told buyers for years not to attach straps like that. They should have made it a regular speedy or changed the sides to make it bandouliere. For the price point it definitely should not be designed that way!
Before they came up with the speedy b they told people to attach straps this way. Then once the speedy b came out it was “bad for the bag”... in order to get people to pay the premium for the speedy b. I have never attached a strap to my classic speedy but I know people who have done this and if it’s only occasionally it might not be that bad for the bag.
 
Does anyone know if all patterns are screen printed or if it is only some of them?

It looks like the colorful monogram is like regular monogram (i.e. not screen print) while items looks screen printed.

I am really trying to stay away from screen print and my SA says they are all screen printed, but I think she might be wrong.

To me it seems like you are correct. Because I'm assuming the colorful monogram is like the Escale collection, which was not screen printed. I avoid screen print too, and I would not have bought Escale pieces if they were screen printed.

SLGs like the cosmetic bag are definitely screen printed, and the danube as well.
