Hi all, I've read the lining has changed in the Palm Springs Mini bags but also someone mentioned a zipper pull that changed as well, I think about it not being as sturdy? Does anyone have a picture of the difference or can elaborate? Thank you.

My bag also has that crack :(

I do think it "needs" to be there since the canvas piece goes "up" where the zipper is. If that makes any sense?

If I like it? Definitely NOT.

Will it get worse? Probably :(

Mine has the exact same thing as well. I do believe this is just where the leather was cut and it isn't stitched together there because it would most likely rip when opening the zipper. I do not consider this a defect and do not think it will rip or become worse. This is most likely how all of them are, or at least a vast majority of them. Enjoy your bag. Don't look at it under a microscope until you can't enjoy it anymore. I've been there [emoji23]

Once you explained the first picture, I understood what you meant. The front on the other hand seems fine, and the black leather tab, the embossing is good too. I guess at the end of the day, if it doesn't bother you, and you absolutely 100% love it then you should keep it. They are definitely hard to come by, and apparently the waitlist in Sydney I heard is now been closed for a while as there are too many orders. The reverse monogram mini is even more rare and harder to come by. I got the mono mini PS when it first came out, and I absolutely love it. I love it so much I was even contemplating getting the reverse as well, but my husband said I was nuts!! lol but even if I wanted too, it is not available no more. I did see th reverse around 6 months ago, but at the time did not want it.

Nonetheless, please think carefully, coz you have to use it at the end of the day. You have to be happy with it, coz it's definitely expensive for such a small bag. And then it you let it go back, no regrets just in case you never get one again. Good luck and keep us posted on what you do.

I just got mine today, as i was reading other posts i have the same issue too, a small tear on one side. But it is completely fine on the other. I didnt intend on checking the bag thoroughly but i just noticed it and Makes me uncomfortable with the tear, talking with my SA now for exchange. Any thoughts on this one wether it was really how the leather was cut to accomodate stitching?
