I'm deciding between chevre and epsom for the mini kelly II as well! But both are sellier style and I prefer retourne...do mini kellys or kelly 20s even come in the retourne style? I have not come across one.

You have to be offered and they are very limited and in super high demand (meaning extremely difficult to get even for established clients).
I'd agree with this. I have Box in a Mini K II and it's REALLY hard to open and close. I love it, but chèvre would be a bit easier, and it's not like a 20 cm sellier bag is going to puddle
Hi Ladies, any ladies here been offered mini kelly recently? Would love to see the 2020 colours they have for mini K.
I feel like Mini K has been especially hard to come by this year. Even on reseller sites there's been a shortage of renewed stock, in comparison to B/K which has been refreshed more regularly with 2020 models popping up here and there. My SA mentioned to me the other day that they haven't received Mini K in months as well, since prior to the mandated lockdowns (I'm in U.S.) in March.
I’ve seen a black chèvre GHW mini Kelly in my store recently. My SA said it takes an 8:1 spend ratio to take home though, and i’m nowhere near. (2:1 I can do, not 8 though).... it sold within a week so you know there are some VIPs out there snapping it all up.

It really is! But with covid, the portion of customers that typically get their bag fix abroad are all stuck here with my local store. It’s extra competitive here.
Who is saying 8:1? That's definitely not the case where I am, but I know some countries are very competitive.
oh my!?!?! 8:1 is nuts. Mind as well go re-seller route at that point. I saw new mini Ks on fashionphile last year at around $18-$20k. And this includes a new black chèvre with gold hardware. But I agree with @olibelli, it seems as though mini K production is even more limited this year (even in normal times, mini Ks are far and between). my SA said the store only received two thus far in 2020...I felt extremely lucky to get offered one of them earlier this month...
That’s just the case my store, from what my SA told me. I’m certain most other countries are not as insanely competitive. (You definitely won’t believe who gets offered the Kelly twilly i’m slightly bitter they appear readily available in France).
I definitely think MK's are more rare lately - maybe a production thing. But I can't see 8:1 on anything. I can't find the original post mentioning it, so no idea which country that would be happening in. I guess if that were the case here I'd go to resale, as for 8x a mini K I can go buy a croc B and have change left over
