Did you end up purchasing through parisbazaar? I'm curious to know because I'm currently in the process of purchasing through parisbazaar and am a little nervous as this is my first time purchasing through a personal shopper.
I just made my payment today via PayPal invoice. I'm not sure what the charge is to use the personal shopper service but with shipping and the PayPal fee as well as the euro to dollar exchange rate not being that great I'm definitely paying more than I expected. However, because it's an item that I don't think I'll be able to find here in the US I think it's worth it to pay a little extra.
My main concern is the authenticity of the item but I have been assured that the item is purchased from a chanel boutique and is authentic!
