Net-a-porter has the Black back in stock on the UK site - I grabbed it from there as the exchange rate to $NZD is much better! For some reason on the US website the bag is $1736 USD which seems crazy compared to $745 GBP!
 
Same for me in Australia. I got it from the UK site even though it was available on the Asia pacific site. They want AUD$1300 on the asia pacific site and I paid AUD$925 on the UK site. I have been buying more and more from NAP UK over the asia pacific site these days since it does end up cheaper even with exchange rate and international transaction fees.

Just checked what it would be on the US site for me and it would convert to AUD$1619....That's heaps higher.

Glad I'm not the only one Jaime! I was worried about purchasing from the UK site because it always defaults me into NZ and USD but there was no way I was going to pay so much more - I even emailed NAP about the price difference and they more or less said that was the way it was because of the exchange rate. It was going to cost $2470 NZD from the Asia Pacific site compared to $1300 NZD from the UK site. How did you manage to scoop it for $925 AUD!? That's a great price :smile:
 
At the time the conversion rate was good and GBP570 was AUD$925. Plus I used cash rewards for the purchase so will get $53 rebate on that after 3 months from date of purchase so will be even less after that.
 
This was the second time I ordered it the first time I sent it back so it's a bit of a love hate struggle. End of the day I do love it but it is a bit small for me to be practical. I have been using it on days I need next to nothing and it's working ok but it means I can't use it often at all.

That's a shame, I do prefer smaller bags and have been wanting to downsize from my PS1 so I hope that it will be large enough for the essentials!

For me the Disco is bigger than my small bags :P with the Disco I can bring my essentials (keys, cards/wallet and phone) PLUS other things as napkins, 1-2 cars for my 3 year old and sun glasses in a soft case :) but it all depends on what you normally carry! I made a major size down when I started to feel stiff in my back and it hurt. So I found out that small bags helps me with carrying less ;)
 
I can fit a wallet keys phone and sunnies in soft case the hard one would never fit. That's all with a little room to be comfortable. If I cram anything else in there I have to take everything out to get to what I want. So if I need to take my pouch or water or anything for the kids it's another bag. Going to the store alone is all good I don't need much but anything else I'd be carrying a separate bag for everything else if I didn't switch to something more practical for me. And I really don't carry an excessive amount at the best of times. I have a mini Pandora too which size wise doesn't look that much bigger yet it fits more than double.

I do agree that it is not a bag to have when you are alone with kids. I have used it when I was shopping with my baby girl but then she was in the stroller and I also had a diaper bag. If the whole family are out I could also wear it because my husband could help carry things and use the stroller. But if I am alone with both children I don't use it since I will need quick access to dump random things in my bag (and obvious need a bigger bag).

So I do use my Disco but if I was allowed to only have one bag as a mom I would need a bigger one :)
