I had a Delightful which I bought back in 2010 (£380! ) and I LOVED her. I ended up selling in 2013 as I thought I didn’t need her anymore and it was my biggest sale regret as I’ve never managed to find another in a good enough condition. I didn’t like the NM Df so didn’t buy that. I’ve just received my Graceful MM DE today (paid just before price hike thankfully) and can honestly say she is a perfect replacement to my original Df. I think I actually like her better. She just looks a bit more refined than the Df certainly more unique than the NF which is too common now (sorry, just IMO). It’s a shame that most preloved Delightfuls are overpriced and generally very tatty. I’d rather pay a little more and get a brand new Gf now.
 
Thank you to everyone who replied. The corner issues that were raised had me concerned and since I was still in the return window, I went ahead and returned the Graceful. By doing so, I purchased the Delightful and think this will be a better option at least as far as the corners.
 
I’m totally in love with my Monogram Delightful MM. I use it everyday and the vachetta has turned a beautiful honey patina. I’ve taken excellent care of her since buying her 2 plus years ago. Today, I went to the LV store to show them some spots where my canvas was cracking and also a spot on the trim that looks like a small hole where the bag kind of folds over itself. I was pleasantly surprised when they immediately said they’d replace the bag. I was shocked and disappointed to find out they no longer make the Delightful and therefore my replacement will be Graceful. I took the credit and told them I need time to think it over. I’m torn. What should I do? I love my Delightful SO much. The Graceful looks cheaper to me in some ways. Will I regret trading Delightful for Graceful?
The delightful is being relaunched soon

Ooooh, and more info on this?
Apparently they will relaunch beginning of May to take reservations. When I asked if its common to bring back discontinued items they said yes because they weren't able to have enough supply at the time. Im beyond excited as this is the exact bag I wanted. I love the crease on the sides of the graceful but they lack of gold hardware is very underwhelming

The Delightful is THE best bag ever! I have 2,,,,Azur and Ebene MM Enjoy yours!,
I have been wanting the Delightful for so long and was so sad it was discontinued.
I had to convince myself about the Graceful.

Well went out last week and saw so many women using the Delightful as messy diaper bag ( I will be using as diaper too. Lol)
Totally lost my want for it. Saw the Graceful and fell in love.
