I was able to get a Palm Springs mini online last week, I just picked it up yesterday but I wanted to know what u guys think about the alignment? I’m not sure if I should return it and wait for another one? What would you guys do?

I got a PSM a couple of weeks online and it was misaligned as well. A few days later I ordered another one online and that was much better aligned. So I returned the first one. I think misalignment especially on the front is very obvious and definitely an eyesore for me. So I didn't want to settle for that flaw.

So I've just called LV customer services UK and they said that the palm springs backpack mini is completely sold out everywhere. I wish this wasn't the case as I've been after one for so long

I've had a look at the UK website and it seemed that I can order the palm springs mini world tour edition. However I'm not too keen on the stickers on the bag. How is it that they are doing the world tour edition still but not making any more of the regular ones? I hope this bag is not getting discontinued...

Thank you for your input! You really helped me make up my mind! I’m gonna wait for a better aligned one, I called customer service before buying this one online and I was told the psm would be back available mid March I will wait till then! Thanks!!

I have a feeling they aren’t completely accurate with the availability of this bag through the customer service line. Last month I went into the Edinburgh store to buy a different bag and causally asked if they ever saw Palm Spring minis. The SA went from behind the counter and produced one. I ultimately chose the other bag but couldn’t stop thinking about the PSM for the rest of the day. When I got home I called the customer service line and was told it had been sold and they seemed surprised there was one in store so readily available as there are waiting lists apparently for them and they are supposedly sold out across the U.K.
Anyway 2 weeks later I was back in the store and was speaking to the SA about it and she brought out another PSM! She said it had just arrived that morning and that they see a few of them per month! I wonder if they claim they are hard to get to keep demand up? Neither of the PSMs in the Edinburgh store were on display on the shop floor they were only brought out when requested. Might be worth just occasionally popping into the store closest to you and asking?

I was able to grab a reverse mono mini online over the weekend. Not sure how I feel about the reverse. My gut tells me to wait for a classic monogram mini. Thoughts on classic vs reverse? Pictures of reverse in action etc

Much appreciated

Just wanted to share some info! So I visited 4 LV boutiques yesterday in the LA area looking to exchange my psm because of the misalignment, no luck in either stores but I did learn that each boutique is different as far as wait list etc. one of them wanted a full deposit to be put on a waitlist of a minimum of 4 wks wait, the other had a long wait list so I filled out a sheet to be put on the waitlist but they did not know how long the list is, the other was no longer adding any more to the wait list because they had 6-8 month wait already, the last one I was told they got rid of the waitlist system and it’s a first come first serve basis boutique because they think that’s more fair to the customers so the SA that helped me there added me to her personal waitlist on her phone so if she gets one in she will call me! They all have different systems set in place as far as waitlists go.

Just randomly searched the site and saw that I can place it in cart. So I purchased today. Hopefully my purchase goes through and no cancellation since the website was experiencing high traffic. Crossing fingers!! And I used my PayPal credit line, 6mos no interest!

Lucky! I managed to get a reverse but my heart says I really like the classic. Best of luck with it!

I no longer trust customer service. They said this about a bandeau I wanted in Canada. “Sold out everywhere in Canada and online”. But when I called another time (same day, so unlikely it was a new shipment) asking about t at a specific store, I was told there were “several available”. And I was able to get it in the end...

This bag is having so many issues, is it gonna be discontinued?

Got a new mini, it is so cute and hard to get. But zoom in this bag, there is why dots on the edge. Should I return? It is not noticeable, but worry about getting worse

(this is the other side with peeling)
I would everyone’s opinion on this. I bought this bag two months ago and used it a total of seven times. I baby it and never taken it to a crowded or packed place. That being said I noticed peeling on the canvas and the flower already. I took it to the store and was told it was normal wear and tear. However, the store manager offered me a refund and said she’s giving me it because Ive raised concern about the peeling in the past. But she proceeded to say that the bag was not suited for me... I disagree on that statement. I have sent in photos to client services to get a second opinion, but what do you guys think? Should I get the refund on the bag or should I enjoy the bag and down the road get the front fixed if I need to (it’s a repair I can have done at a charge)
