Hello everyone! I am very interested in getting a bolide 35 as it appears large enough to use for work purposes. However, I am also still waiting on my first quota bag and so wonder if I should go the reseller route for fear that potentially getting the bolide may set me back even longer for getting my first offer. I’m currently around 2:1 at the Madison store.

I haven’t seen that many options for bolide 35 online (I see 3 or 4 on fashionphile), and have no sense of how common the larger bolide is in store.

Anyways, appreciate any advice on the matter. Thank you!

Bolides 35 have been out of production for several years unfortunately. So the reseller route is the only option.

Thanks! 9200 EU on the receipt printed for detax, so more expensive than the 25B or a regular bolide
I don’t know how many were made, but I would imagine it’s an acquired taste, but I’m thrilled as I never thought
I would be able to see one IRL, much less have the opportunity to purchase. It is listed as bolide 1923 rainbow

ETA: @allanrvj, this is the price at FSH. In the US or another location outside the EU, I imagine it would be higher

In the US the Bolide Rainbow is $12K before taxes (so, very nicely done @880!). Still worth it I think! :angel: I was told there were two remaining in the US.

Thank you so much @QuelleFromage I feel very very fortunate
not only to have been able to purchase at FSH, but also to have received this offer at all
