Hi LV Lovers! I’m new to this forum but have been following for a while now. Here’s my story. There are 4 Louis Vuitton stores within a 10 mile radius of me, so super close! I walked in and asked every single CA at each store if they can get me a psm. The answer was no; their wait list was closed (gasp!) as I got more familiar with the brand and losgistics I joined groups of LV Lovers and I got my hands on a CA in Vegas who was thrilled to help me! She got her hands on my psm the same day I spoke with her. Like legit work she put in. I waited a week for my delivery and I can’t put her away now!! I am obsessed. She’s made in Italy which is such a bonus since my CA told me over the phone she was made in USA. Her alignment is fine. Also, one CA at my local store rubbed wax onto the zipper and it is sooo smooth now. I hope I don’t encounter any canvas issues around the zipper but I have a year to watch out for that now. Thank you for reading this far!! I look forward to the new things I’ll learn here!

Nice!! Your CA is so nice to rub wax onto your zipper. I asked my local boutique but was told that they doesn’t have wax to do it. So i bought wax paper to do it myself but not sure if I didn’t do it right as I was scared if the wax residue will stuck on the zipper, hence the zipper isnt very smooth yet though.
Oh no! They helped me a flag ship store with my psm. Then I purchased a zippy at a Neiman Marcus and they also put wax on the zipper there. Maybe try asking a different CA. I always get different answers. Don’t give up! Because once they wax it for you, you forget what the fuss was all about regarding the zipper hahha. I can open my bag now with one hand. It’s worth the second try. Hope they help you!!
Congrats on scoring your PSM! It looks great on you. I got my PSM a month ago after getting on the waitlist. Just like you said, all throughout L.A I was told it would take months and some boutiques told me they weren't accepting anymore on the waitlist. I reached out to my advisor at the Beverly Hills store and was able to get one 2 1/2 weeks later. A friend of mine was able to get one pretty fast at the Beverly Center LV boutique. Lucky someone told you about their advisor and the fact that she worked hard to source one for you. Enjoy your new purchase!View attachment 4199836 View attachment 4199838 View attachment 4199836 Hi LV Lovers! I’m new to this forum but have been following for a while now. Here’s my story.

Hi, Was wondering if the Kindle fits in the Palm Springs mini? I tried looking for a posting--so sorry if I missed it. My Kindle is around 5x7 inches and the website indicates 7.4x11.9 inches. I'm not so sure if it would be a fit despite the dimensions based on some videos I've watched (??) Thanks in advance for any help.
Yesss! That’s exactly what they were telling me. It’s strange how inconsistent some information is. Nonetheless I am very grateful for having this beauty!! I am sooo thankful she gave me her info. I’ve already purchased a Favorite MM and some luggage tags from her. She is so sweet. I really hope she can be my go-to advisor . It’s a bummer she is in a different state but maybe I’ll make the trip to her boutique one day. Do people gift items to their CA for their hard work?? I hope you enjoy yours as well! I did not know Beverly Hills had two boutiques. Good to know!
Hi lovelies!
Has anyone gotten an exchange for their Palm Springs Mini? How long did it take for you to get a new one? I handed my 3 month old PSM due to a defect and my SA told me it could take 3-6 months!

Gorgeous duo! I love the look of the PS Mini but sold mine because the quality was not on par with my other LV bags, then I found the MCM mini in rose gold and I'm in love.
That rose gold is beautiful. It came out after I purchase the cognac mini and I was tempted to order it anyway but my SA found me a PS mini. I may still get the rose gold...it's so cute with a beautiful color....
Here is my cute backpack with me on holiday ☺️ Really makes an outfit ❤️
