My bag arrived!!! So beautiful and I did email CS to ask them to put an even lower amount on the customs form because we have a lower limit where we live (roughly $100). CS was super kind and responded in a day to let me know they've let the shopping department know.

It arrived in three days via UPS (I selected UPS standard shipping for 55 euros) and was flawlessly well packaged.

Bag also came stuffed! No creases in the back! My local Bal boutique was not this careful with their storage, the metallic edge I bought last year was given to me folded.

It arrived this morning and I snuck home at lunch to pick it up! The leather is ridiculously beautiful, does not feel thin yet is light. It is soft and only slightly spongy to me, not super light and weirdly spongy like I was afraid it could be. Bal has outdone itself, hopefully the vibrato leather catches on and more variations on color, hardware, and design will be available!
(Bag here is empty, and is still structured enough to stand on its own, but i will break it in eventually into a slouchy pool of soft leather)

OMG It's beautiful!!! I ordered on Monday and it arrived on Thursday. Similarly requested for custom declaration of 200. I can only get to my box this weekend but so far I'm already loving it!

Thanks! You'll be blown away by its awesomeness! I have promised myself I can only use it after I survive this month at work, but I will still pet and admire it everyday until then!

Thank you! I have been pining for a pebbled leather Bal for over a year! At first I tried to hunt down the Hamilton city (impossible! I did find a black first), but I'm so glad this came along!!

Thanks! I was coming on here to complain about the contact us button too, but then someone updated to say it was available so I had to snatch it! I'm super thankful to this thread for introducing me to this awesome bag and Department Feminin.

PSA: random info, but the inside pocket zipper has short tassel, like the metallic edge bags.

I saw it yesterday on Reebonz! At least there is some kind of discount if not as much as DF!

I saw it on HG bags. It looks like they have restocked in black, blue and red, and they might offer a discount on it (they are running discounts on some bags right now)

For those of you who have it, how does the hardware look? Is it shiny because it looks slightly matte in the pictures. It doesn't look as shiny as the new gold/silver rh or the me hardware.

Thank you dear! I have to wait until October to officially take it out but I'm not sure I can resist that long anymore [emoji16]

It is shiny to me, I have the Hamilton first which (matte gold hardware) and this is definitely way shinier.

I saw that HG bags restocked it in black, red and blue, and I think they are offering discounts right now (you have to sign up for their website to get the discount codes).

I just checked for the Black and didn't see it on HG bags. You saw the Black Vibrato on their site recently?

I just checked and now it seems to be gone. That was fast -- it was there a few days agao when I got the email update that they had received the Vibratos. I do still see the bleu canard and red, though.

What's the difference between these 2? seems to look different on the photos but both are calfskin bleu canard?
