I'm biased because the chicken puzzle was the only successful bag purchase from the phantom zone but I appreciate the large amount of marquetry that went into it relative to the petite size

Haha, are you going to go for it then? Alternatives are stalking the Loewe website and hoping for returns (be warned, we have pages of frustration with their process on this thread) (https://www.loewe.com/usa/en/women/...A510S21X75-3605.html?cgid=w_spirited_away&p=1)
or
Stalk myTheresa for them to restock the mini version. I don’t think they ordered the small: https://www.mytheresa.com/en-us/loe...puzzle-mini-leather-shoulder-bag-2072798.html
There’s also always next year’s collection!
Haha I call it a duckYeah I actually just got off the phone with them and the SA said, and I quote, "Yeah we have the chicken puzzle bag left."
Maybe we need a bite to whether it’s a duck or chickenCongrats for getting past the ordering system!Hey guys! I ordered the Otori sama and Susuwatari coin cardholders a few days ago during the phantom stocking, with the mentality that it was 99% likely they will get cancellations so I thought I’d take the gamble and order both. But to my surprise both of them ended up going through and have been shipped.
Now I gotta decide which one I’m keeping…as I don’t need two haha and am torn. I love how intricate the marquetry is on the otori and the bright colours but just not sure about the white leather and zip. But also love the susuwatari as it’s so cute with the metallic stars and also the brown and black is more practical. But still can’t decide…thought I’d ask you guys’ opinion on which I should keepor if anyone who already owns either one, what’s your opinion? Ahh I’m so torn hahaha
Is there an opportunity to keep both? They are both so cute and you won’t have any regrets.
Wow I’m surprised this store has so many bags left! Would’ve love the lantern but I’m half way across the world
Haha I call it a duck
They are so cute!
I was the person looking for the frog flamenco but I'm in Hong Kong. Wrong continent!
I was out yesterday and swung by three stores (the advantage of living in a small place!). One only had clothes. One had bags but only ones I'd seen before. It did have the display with the bridge and duck (chicken?) though. And then the the third one turned out to be the whole pop up with the bridge display, train seats, etc. Oops, missed that info. There wasn't much left, but they did have both the frog and duck wallets. Thought on it while I went for an appointment then came back for an aogaeru one as I'm not sure I'll be able to get the bag. They also had the duck card/coin holder and honestly, I'm tempted too. Like others said, I'm worried about the white leather though. I wish they'd done green and brown!
They were out of the special sleeves but I still got the little susuwatari tag. I also got a smaller version of the catalogue (which has stickers in it) and the postcards (got a Haku notebook and big catalogue with my puzzle bag purchase). And I got to keep my bath token scratch card (the last store told me I couldn't??).
Chatting to the SA I got the impression they underestimated how popular the collection would be. I mentioned the frog flamenco and Chihiro small hammock and both of these seem to have been more requested than they expected. They are still receiving stock though (they told me they'd be getting the No Face wallet and I think the susuwatari scarf today) and trying to source products from other countries. She had a long wait list for different products so I put myself down for the frog flamenco. No one else has requested it so maybe I have a chance! (Three people have requested the mint susuwatari version.)

Hoping for some restocks in Singapore too! No news on anything from our SA so far...
Finding it a little hard to believe they still underestimated the response given what happened last year!
This is what I don't get. I don't know if younger kids still watch the older Ghibli movies (I'm a teacher and I've noticed they don't know all the older Disney ones) but they are verrry popular with people old enough to afford nice clothes and accessories for themselves. I've now seen my blue Boh puzzle and the equivalent mini hammock in three stores - not sure if they're less popular or they just ordered more, not realising how popular all the other items would be?
I've been abit greedy with 4 SLG's, should i return my red kaonashi vertical wallet? Is there anyone currently using this wallet let me know how useful is it? I bought it cos i wanted another piece from the collection then later that night another Loewe store offered me the mint soot cardholder so i didn't intend on adding two SLG's that day.
Ohh I see! I emailed customer service about returned orders and they gave me a very vague reply lol (as expected) and neither answered nor confirmed really if online will still be restocked or only instores now. Literally just said “the scarf is not available at our online store…but please stay tuned on our website in case we do” *facepalm*
Yess such a tough choice! I wish I could keep both but I really just have too many cardholders already haha. I felt personally attacked after watching a few youtube videos of why SLG’s are wasting our money and stopping us from buying bags…oops hahahaAah tough choice!! The Susuwatari cardholders were my first love, but I was late to the game and was so happy to catch the Otori-sama cardholder. It’s really grown on me now and I agree the leather marquetry details are amazing! I have the same concern with the white leather though- I feel like the Susuwatari is more usable and great for every day, but Otori-sama is a beautiful spring/summer moment. Hope any of my ramblings help
but yes I am kinda leaning more towards the Susuwatari one because it’s just more practical in the long run being brown/black. I do love the Otori though, it’s so eye catching and detailed! It was actually the first one that caught my attention out of the cardholders initially!Thanks! It was such a shock that they actually went through. Ahh I’d love to keep both, but I keep telling myself I defs don’t need two of essentially the same function/design of cardholders haha. But tbh I was even tempted to get the Kaonashi coin/cardholder as well but only managed to hold myself back because I already own a very similar YSL fragments zipped cardholder in red that is pretty much the same minus the Kaonashi…was a struggle to restrain myself tho! Haha!Congrats for getting past the ordering system!
