That I have no idea. Could have been offered and didn’t want to reject. So so gorgeous. I went to the store to just lovingly stare at it while I picked up a preloved rodeo. I love it soo much. It reminded me of the vintage box mini kelly. Soooooo gorgeous. Because it’s box it’s not taken up immediately. Such a beauty. I wish I could just bring it home.
Well, fell out of love with his/her "dream bag" rather quickly, didn't they?

This is the kind of thing that does bother me....this is a special item, a collector leather and color, and someone bought it just to flip it at twice retail. Leave it for the person who would appreciate it! I think many of us would be thrilled to be offered this bag.

can you have a vintage mini Kelly?
 
Went by my local boutique yesterday in search for a Calvi for my DH as he was lusting over my chevre in Bleu Hydra. I initially asked for bright and warm colours but my SA knowing me so well surprised me with a black box calvi :nuts:I was over the moon and immediately took it.
I tried very hard to keep it for myself but as soon as my DH saw it he forgot all about wanting a color and fell for the box leather too.

I decided to let him keep it so that when I get my dream Kelly in box he won't say a peep:lol::graucho: PXL_20230225_160540375.jpg

I would have let him keep the Bleu Hydra - that way when the BBK comes along you'd already have the first part of the set :D

I bet it will cost more than this k25 brand new. Vintage is sooo expensive now. I have a box kelly28 20 years old and it cost more than some k28 in togo in a young age. But what can I say I fell in love with it and I got no choice but to bring it home . I was saving for a k25 actually so I have to started saving again. I nvr liked box leather for what I have read until I saw one and fell in love with it. I hardly use it though because it’s very stiff

This kind of thing bothers me too! I would have loved this offer, and treasured the bag.
