I stopped by one of the MK Boutiques after my dr appt today. They did have a few Moss green items & did have the Moss Mercer. The color of Moss is very similar to Malachite but I did not have my Malachite Selma with me for a comparison. I will go back later this week & take the Selma with me to compare & get pics of them side by side. Honestly, I don't like how the Mercer feels. Yes, the interior of the bag is Saffiano with the middle zipped compartment lined with a new style fabric lining. I asked the SA & manager about the "bonded leather" & they said it's 100% pebble leather on the outside. I'm not sure I believe that because the bag is very light to be both pebble leather & Saffiano leather, plus the fact that it just doesn't feel right. I was very drawn to the style but I'm not sure the size will be large enough for my needs & I just don't like how it feels. This bag is lighter than the large Selma & I'm concerned that it won't hold it's structure very well with use. It's a shame.

I also looked at the large Savannah in Plum. While I like the Savannah as it's similar to the Mercer but a little larger, I absolutely hate the shiny Saffiano the Plum bag is made of. I much prefer the Plum in the regular Saffiano. The color looks richer. The shiny Saffiano looks like plastic!

I asked if it would come in the regular Saffiano but the manager doesn't think so. I'll have to check into that as well.
On the other hand, I did buy the Moss fur pom. It was a spontaneous purchase so it wasn't on sale but that's fine. It would be my luck the Moss would be all gone before they went on sale anyway. It looks fantastic on the Malachite Selma, by the way.
Here's a pic of the Mercer I took at the store. Their lighting sucks. I'll post pics of the Moss & Malachite once I go back later in in the week.
