Help...Have 4 New Prada's...Please help me decide.

I have bag #1 (the Cervo Pleat bag). Sadly, I am not so fond of it because I have only worn the bag twice and the base of the main strap (not the long cross body strap) where the rings are attached on either side have already "cracked" 
. I will try to post some pictures for you tomorrow. I bought the purse online through Neiman Marcus a few months ago and since I reside in Canada it would be way too much trouble to have it fixed through them. I think I'm just going to sell it on e-bay as is instead. Anyhow, I really love bag number 3. In fact I saw it at Holt Renfrew on Monday and contemplated buying it, but since it wasn't on sale I decided not to (currently on a purse ban as well). I believe it was $1195 and it came in black and eggplant (a really nice dark rich purple).

Well, update here...
#3 ended up being cancelled my NM....
#1 & #2 arrived...from Bergdorf...I am so mad because they put the Gauffre in WAY TOO small of a box and they bent the handles completely down, so now even 2 days later it is curved and they actually did damage to the leather. It is almost like the color was taken off in about a 1/2 inch area. Also, the top part that closes is a painted metal and it has a dent in it about the size of 1/4"....I can't believe it because it is such a nice and expensive bag.
#4 arrived today and it is really nice. It stays on my shoulder and has enough pizzazz to stand out, but not too outlandish. (I am a little conservative and don't like to SCREAM..I am HERE..LOL)
Not sure on #1 yet, as it is heavy when using the long strap, but that is a nice alternative and the short strap will fit on the shoulder or use in the crook of the arm.
I will post pictures tonight or tomorrow.
Thanks everyone for your input

I think I am going to call bergdorf and see what they say about the handle. Another poster had said they had this bag #2, Gaufre, but it was difficult and I can see how this could be. It is narrow to get items in and out of because the frame only opens say about 4 inches and it is deep.
I love the nr.1 and would love to buy it aslo
I have to second this emotion! #1 is definitely my favorite!
