^^shopbopchic, i think someone mentioned that RM covers the cost of customs too so thats why international shipping is so high...
On the site it says backordered till 5/31, but i don't think its been updated. I talked to Catalina last week, and they have 3 batches of Nikki, and 2 batches of Matinee, which is about 40 bags, and i believe they'vehad more orders after that too! She said they did not even expect half of that, so thats why the turnaround is 10 weeks now for any NEW orders that come thru. The batches that went into production already will still be 8 weeks.
Its somewhat complicated- basically you have to wait till she has atleast 8 pple willing to buy the same bag because production requires a minimum of 8 bags... Once she reached the 8 orders, then your card is charged. Your card is charged before the bag goes into production, and it is final sale...
