Hello loves,

New to the forum! I've been bitten by the H bug after buying many accessories and small leather goods and am finally ready for my first bag purchase. I want so badly for it to be the Lindy 26! Here's the dilemma... I would love your help!

1. In the US it seems much harder to get it in store in the 26 size than in Europe. I have seen the color/leather I want (etoupe or gold clemence) on US reseller websites but at a premium (e.g., 6,300 USD preloved condition versus ~5,330 USD brand new from France after VAT refund). Does this preloved price seem ridiculous to you? Perhaps I should wait to try my luck in Paris (which would be next year anyway).

2. I'm still trying to determine if the Lindy is a good everyday bag. Any thoughts on this, particularly given the wear and tear that occurs with everyday use? I do not baby my bags :smile:.

3. Any thoughts on the gold versus the etoupe colorway in this bag? Anyone have the 26 in these colors and can attest to the wear and tear, as well as versatility with styling?

Thank you so much and apologies if these have been answered somewhere already!
