hi! I'm in the market for my first bag and have my heart set on a regular black square mini (https://www.chanel.com/sg/fashion/p/A35200Y0405994305/mini-flap-bag-lambskin/). My SA said they haven't seen this style in over a year which means they may not be making them anymore and is suggesting that if I want a square mini then I will have to stick to pearl crush. Does that sound right? Based on some threads above it looks like there should be regular black square minis in this 22S collection... Thank you!
Hi! I got one from 22p at the beginning of January, so they’re still in production, but just hard to get as other girls here said.
Keep my fingers crossed for you to be able to find one! Maybe the stock thread could be helpful:flowers:
 
Hi everyone! Sharing my Mini trio :heart: tried to find the best way to shoot them together, so please excuse the funny compositions!

I wanted to see if anyone else had a similar experience to @idlehen and me with our MII versus MIF mini bags?

my MII 20s black mini square is heavier and more plush leather / puffier quilts. The strap drop is also shorter but I don’t have my measuring tape to confirm that. As a woman with more pronounced hips, it’s a slightly less comfortable cross body.

My MIF caramel from 22s is a lot drier and has a noticeable wrinkling on the back when I open it. It’s much lighter and more comfortable as a crossbody - a happy medium between rectangle mini and my other square mini. To be honest, I didn’t even know they made minis in France!

I am in a dilemma because I managed to get my hands on the 22S Chanel Mini Rectangular Pearl Crush in Rouge and it's gorgeous but I had my heart set on black. This is my first Chanel and I had wanted to the black mini rectangular but I know how difficult it is to get and I was drawn in by the fact that Pearl Crush Minis are hard to find and it was sheer luck that I managed to find this one. Is is true that Pearl Crush Minis are limited? Are Pearl Crush Minis harder to find than regular minis? What do you guys think I should do? I also don't mind waiting for a black one.

That sounds lovely. Did you buy it? Can you share a photo and where did you find it?!
