Hi all! This is my first post here and I am very new to the designer bag world, so hoping you all might be able to assuage my now growing fears.
I recently ordered the Chloe Nile bag in black from Neiman Marcus. I've had my eye on this bag for the last couple of years since it came out, but I hesitated for various reasons. Last week I decided to finally take the plunge and purchase, only to find out it was discontinued/no longer on Chloe's website.
After much searching, I found it in black on Neiman Marcus where it was on sale, the last in stock, and "ships from a store". I quickly purchased it as it was the only link I could find for the black color and from a "reputable" store... or so I thought.
After purchasing, I got excited about the bag and started doing some research - including joining purseforum. I then started to see threads about Neiman Marcus selling fakes, bags coming damaged with scratches (likely bags from the sales floor), and bags arriving without an authenticity card/dust bag. I'm now nervous that I made a mistake purchasing and should have just let the bag go.
Has anyone had a positive experience ordering a Chloe bag from Neiman Marcus? Or did I mess up? Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!
