I always passed on this bag because of all the issues, mainly the zipper. I see it has been fixed. How do you guys like your bag? Especially those who got in back in 2016 when it was $1590. Is it worth $1990? Did the price go up during the increase this week? Are the straps annoying? TIA!

I have the original style in Reverse and haven't had any of the problems the monogram seemed to have. The only issue which isn't a big deal is the little leather tabs that hold the Drings seems to peel on the other edge. Not really noticeable unless I look. My repair CA said I can always send it in for repair but it would take about 6-8 weeks and I wasn't willing to part with it for that long -- wish I knew of the impeding pandemic since I haven't been using it since I rarely go out! And yes the price is more...it was more than $1590 when I purchased it less than a year ago.

I absolutely love this bag & yes I did get the little tabs behind replaced from my localLV store in Perth. Though I don’t know why I ended up selling this beautiful bag, might have been coz of old zipper opening. Immediately I regretted selling it :sad:
Was lucky to grab a new one online 2 days back. So can’t wait to receive it which will come with a new zipper :heart::smile:

Hi! I purchased and received this brand new PSM from the LV website recently. And already noticed a wear on it. Anyone else have this issue with this little tear near the corner of the zipper? I hope I’m not the only one having this issue. Mines is made in France.

Hi everyone! I just received my new PSM in the mail today but it is the old version! I didn’t even think this was possible. I’ve dreamed of this bag for forever. I called to see if I could exchange it for a new version, however the client advisor told me I’d have to send it back and keep stalking the website for a new version. She said they have no new versions anywhere so I’m worried that if I send it back that I’ll have to stalk the website and potentially end up with another old model. Do the older bags always have issues? I take very good care of my purses, but I’m just worried it’ll have quality issues.

This is strange, I didn't think they were selling the old version anymore! I hope you get one soon. Keep stalking! Just return and get your money back or go to local store if they are open. A relative has the older version reverse MINI palms springs and she has a real hard time opening the bag. She has to dedicated both hands and with the bag in front of her, so it's not fun.

I know! I thought it was would for sure be the new version. I’m worried if I return it and stalk until I find a new one that the new one will also be an old model :/

I called client services again and I guess there was a note on my account from the merchandising team to cancel my order since they didn't have the new model in stock but somehow my order was still pushed through with the old model. Client services is going to call me back and let me know if they can do an exchange for a new one and just have to wait for the new one to get back into stock or I'll just have to return it and keep stalking to website. It is just such a weird situation. The date code is TX2119, so definitely made in 2019.

hows corner wear for people with the new version monogram? post pics pls. contemplating getting it back in mono as well

where you able to get you hands on one? I have been stalking the reverse for ages with no luck :sad: mono restocks regularly on the U.K. site and the US site restocks the reverse practically daily so I am confused why there is such a shortage of the reverse available.

This is what I mean about LV! They have no systematic process control-from warehouse to website is a total disconnect! Why do they even have that model in the warehouse? That seems wrong and a waste of time and effort. First, the code for old Palms springs mini and new PS mini are not even the same, so the one on the website is the NEW bag code which you correctly purchased. They have no business sending you an old model palms springs mini, when your bag code is the new code. Let us know what happens... rooting for you.

Hi, is there any quality difference in monogram and reverse? Seems like more are complaining about the defects found in monogram than the reverse. Planning to get myself a pms and like the mono vers more, but i am abit worried about the quality and of course, the availability as well

in my personal opinion and experience, the reverse canvas holds up amazingly. it's the monogram canvas that always peels or gives issues (i've had both canvas at various points)
