Hi,

'just want to get your advice -- I bought an LV AMFAR 3 a year ago and haven't used it yet. I'm thinking of whether I should sell it (at a lower price, even if i haven't used it yet:cry: ) or just use it.:P

The reason I bought it was because it was really roomy and will be great during travelling. But I've had several out-of-the-country trips already since I bought it, but haven't gotten around to bringing it along with me yet. It doesn't seem to be a very common

Anyone here who has an AMFAR 3 as well -- 'need to get insights on how 'useful' it has been for you :smile:...

I have it and I LOVE it! It's so big but I love big bags! A lot of people use them as diaper bags- from descriptions I've read on ebay. I like that I never see anyone else with it. I think it's unique. If you don't use it then sell it- that's what I would do. If I buy a bag and I just haven't used it then I would sell it- then you can have some money to buy another bag that you will get use out of! I love that it has all those pockets inside too.

hi zacorey,

thanks! great to hear that someone (other than me) has this style :smile:....i was beginning to wonder if i made a mistake of buying this bag instead of the Speedy or the Papillon. when i bought this i did intend to use this as a diaper bag -- it's also great for travelling. aside from this buying this bag, in a way, made me help the AMFAR (AIDS foundation) :smile:.

after i read your reply, i opened my closet, took out the bag from its dust bag and carried it on my shoulder....and i fell in love with it all over again :smile:....i think i'll just keep it for now and start using it already (!) :smile:...i can always sell it later if the 'magic' fades away again...

i'll post a pic soon -- 'still figuring out how to do it ;)

LV stores still sell the AMFAR but most of the time they don't have it on hand. You have to order and wait 2 weeks to get it. That's how long it took me to get mine :biggrin:

I'm beginning to see and appreciate again the beauty of this bag -- thanks to all of you :smile:

Hi Goldengirl!

I'm glad you are using it! It's my all time favorite bag! I had to buy mine on ebay b/c I called LV store and they were completely sold out- not 1 left in the US. They told me I couldn't get this bag. I didn't ask about a special order- don't know if they would do it on a special order? I would consider buying another so when mine gets old I can have a new one! I know LV lasts many years but I like the light patina!

hi zacorey!

i didn't special order my AMFAR, they had 1 stock left in the boutique but the leather trims have darkened a bit already. like you, i want the light patina :biggrin:, so I asked them if they could get me a new stock.

i guess they didn't make a lot of these styles (not even included in the LV website or eluxury), but i'm sure if you buy 1 from the boutique, you'll be able to get 1 brand new light patina AMFAR :smile:

mine is still very light because i haven't used it yet --but will do soon!!!

take care! :smile:
