I got my black ballerina mini mini bucket today (& I received shipping notice today too).
I posted pictures in the Mansur Gavriel MOD SHOT thread. So as far as being worth the months long wait - YES! This bag is absolutely beautiful in every way. I love the leather, it soft & smooth. Bag is very lightweight, the size is perfect - definately not too small, but not too large. I do not like structured bags too large, only smooshy bags.
This bag is very stiff & structured, but looks so good. I love the adjustable strap & the length at the shortest is perfect. I am 5'3" 125 lbs & it looks proportionate on my frame. I was debating between the mini & mini mini & personally glad got the latter, although I have seen the mini & regular size on ladies my size & it looks great - I just prefer a structured bag to be smaller. I will be using this bag all summer on day trips, etc. when I don't feel like carrying a large bag around. I love the tie closure & I really love the ballerina color. Actually I would consider buying another - a cammello rosa would be nice. Next time! The quality and price of this made in Italy bag is just amazing. Although it was hard to wait, I do appreciate that they are handmade & care about quality control.

I wouldnt worry about it. I bought bags from a few of their relaunches and always got the bag shipped in a few days, never got the order canceled.
Thanks for the reply! I genuinely hope so hehe. I can't wait for the bag to be shipped
UPDATE: The status has been changed to fulfilled and I've been given the tracking number in the email! Woot!! *does the happy dance*

That means you should get your bag today or Monday! I got mine the same day I got my tracking!
I got my mini lady in brandy/brick yesterday. It's beautiful, however, I'm really sad that there is a long scratch on the back, between the straps. I've already emailed MG about it.
Has anyone ever purchased a vegetable tanned bag from MG before and gotten something like this? (I got a perfect veg tanned bag last time I ordered.) I don't think any amount of conditioning will ever take it out.

I think it's normal, to be honest, as it's the nature of the leather. A little leather conditioner with definitely soften it into the rest of the bag if it really bothers you, but I tend not to condition my brandy bag as it darkens the rest of the leather so much.
I decided o give MG another try and today ordered the bucket bag in cammello with azzurro interior. I'm hoping that I love this one. I sold my brandy one since it was a darker color than I had anticipated and hope I a, happy with this one!
I think it is fine, but you need to be happy with your purchase. I have gotten MG bags with minor flaws too.
