Hi ladies I just want to ask if do you think I should get the pandora small over celine nano luggage. Im really torn. Thank you!


I have the nano on my list too but I think they're very different bags. I would do the Pandora first, as it's more casual and loose. It's very carefree and easy to wear. But with the nano I feel like it requires more care also you need to maintain its structure.
 
Got my first pandora - mini in pepe leather, mineral blue color. Super light, easy to use, adjustable strap, leather feels sturdy/durable. ❤ Here it is next to my PS1 pouch and micro nightingale for size comparison purposes. 1464903912738.jpg

There are few things I feel doubtful about:
1. the "canvas" used for inside is different from my medium one.
2. font logo plate seems a bit too thin?
3. the leather tag inside is rectangular shape w/o rounded corners, and quite thin
4. for the authentication booklet, it was attached with a white string.
the Givenchy Paris on the cover has a little bit engraved effect.
Also, for the ENG section, the "GIVENCHY" seems weird as pictured....
and do they actually have a chinese section by now?

Could anyone please help... I don't know if I should return this or not.

Thanks.

P.S. I don't know why I can not attach the pics here. Please feel free to click the dropbox link for pictures.

I have been going under the radar for the longest time since I bought my first Pandora , the medium goatskin in oxblood. I've loved the Pandora so much that I've been searching for the perfect second Pandora, only to discover that Givenchy is phasing out the gold hardware ( Booo!! Im a ghw fan =((((...)

Been looking for the medium pepe in black with gold hw, and I've passed the opportunity twice when I chanced upon them in New York and HK, but I guess this love is an unrequited one. Found the black pepe with ghw during the Givenchy sales in Kuala Lumpur, for USD 1425! I was told that they were clearing out their stocks since they were told that Givenchy is discontinuing the ghw. My only qualm was that it was a large , rather than a medium. I think I can just about make it with my height ( 5 foot 4 ). If anyone knows where i can get a legit knee surgery to increase my height to match the bag , please let me know!:D:D:D Lol JK. I'm super stoked I found the bag!

Now I've read that some fellow pepe owners have had issues with this type of leather and its finishing. But I can't help it , I love the wrinkled look , and I hope I won't have too much issues with the bag. Wish me luck!

Hey Guys! I'm looking to get a pandora from a local consignment store but I'm not too sure what the colour is? On their instagram, it looks grey. But then when I go on their online boutique, it's sort of a brown colour (which is the 2nd picture). The description on the online boutique says grey/silver. Can anybody tell me what the colour might be?

Hello! I have the small pandora in Charcoal pepe leather and after some regular use, the front part oxidized into a brownish color. The back part and the straps maintained the grey color though. So I'm guessing the item you're eyeing was originally a grey colored one. Still looks gorgeous though! ❤

Hi everyone, I recently received a pandora small but the top zipper doesn't seem to zip all the way, is this normal? Thanks in advance!

Of course that's not normal. A new zipper may be a lil stiff...but if it won't close with a lil effort, then its most likely defective and should be exchanged for one that has fully functional zippers. Good luck
 
^ Thanks for your reply! It's just that it's not too noticeable and I'm not sure I want to go through the hassle with returns since I bought it from another country. I'll post a pic so you guys have a better idea. If no one else has experienced this before with their pandora then I think I'd better return it...

I see what I suspect are the zipper ends being closer to the corner, which could be why your zip isn't to the very edge of the bag.. The one on my lower pocket is a few mm further away from the edge so that zipper pulls all the way shut.ImageUploadedByPurseForum1465172952.633473.jpg

After seeing the pic, it doesn't seem as bad as I imagined. I think if you were to tug on it a bit it will close as long as the zipper ends are properly aligned..or it should get easier as the leather in that area and the zipper loosen up/break in.

Mine is not like that, but I think if it were I'd probably still keep it, especially if bought from another country, it's really not that noticeable. And like the above poster said, once the leather softens with use it might zip all the way eventually! That said I wouldn't blame you for sending it back either, after all these bags aren't cheap and should be perfect on arrival.

I'm really doubtful abt it......
 
Just a quick update, I contacted customer service and showed them pictures of the defect and they offered me a 10% discount. I think with the discount, I'm willing to overlook the zipper issue and keep the bag. Thanks again for everyone's help!
