But it stay the same situation for a long time. but I think it will come. I found that the USPS services from US to AUS all are delay recently. Spend 6-20days on shipping. and the custom would spend 2min to clearance. so the problem is USPS shipping which like an old pony............

Hello Mina88124, i bought a kelly green PS1 from ****** and she mailed it to an incomplete address. It took 12 business days to arrive to AUS and was held in customs because the address is undeliverable. Right now, after a month, it is still seating around with Auspost, pending to be returned to sender.. This seller is so unprofessional.

I was very excited about my PS bag, but not anymore after dealing with her..

oh...really?! she made a wrong address on your parcel?! i'm so sorry to hear that.
have you try to contact the post office? don't try the facility in city. try the other facility near the airport. my friend has the same problem. she made a thousand phone calls and received the parcel finally.

It's really hit or miss with the USPS when it comes to packages coming/leaving the US I think it's customs that's causing the hold up. Last December I purchased a bag in bonanza from Spain and it took over a month to get it. I sold a bag to a TPFer in Norway I think I sent it express which is overnight and she received it in 4-5 days. I was really hesitant selling it too her I explained my situation I was in still waiting for my bag. So I was happy she got it relatively quick.

Wow how disappointing keep us updated on the outcome. If you really don't want the item anymore maybe you should ask for a refund w/o the restocking fee since you haven't received it due too their error.

Hey Mina, are you in Melbourne too ? I have been calling the 1800 number, how do i get the individual post office number ? The call centre has been giving me different answers all the time for the past 10 days.. I am losing hope. It is still here in Melbourne, still pending to be returned to sender..

Hi Pony, sorry to reply late. I hope still in time.
my experience was don't ask the post office cloese to you. just call to ask the contact numbers of 2 transfer facilities in mel. all parcels need to go there after clearance and stay there waiting to be delivered. One is in city, the other one is near the airport. the first letter is T (sorry, I can't remember the name). just give a call city first, if not there then must be in T facility. IMO, your parcel should be in T-facility waiting to return.

Hope this can help. Good Luck!

Groupshot of my 3 babies..... PS 1 wallets in Black and 2 Smoke Wallets from Fall 2010

The black and one smoke are still brand new and have never been used. I've only used the smoke in the middle, hence the difference in color. I regret not buying the midnight though when it was still available on the PS website:cry:

Updated PS collection photo:

Large Black Keep All
Large Smoke PS1
Large Moss PS1
Medium Tobacco (suede) PS1


I made a goal for 2011 to reduce my handbag collection to 10 bags. After some editing/purging throughout the year, even with one more on the way, I've reached my goal... as long as clutches don't count!

I'm going to try my best to follow the "one in, one out" rule - but I doubt that I'll be able to let any of PS bags go.

@ ehemelay: What a beautiful collection! I'm drooling over your PS babies! I would want to build a similar collection of satchels and keepall but in slightly different colours.

I remember creating a post on handbag essentials for those starting or trimming their collections. If and when you can, would love to see your bag essentials on this thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/proenza-schouler/bag-essentials-for-women-680716.html

Thanks, batgirl! It's a little too early to say for sure, because I've only had my Large PS1s for about a year and a half, but I feel like they are a higher quality product than the Balenciaga bags I have collected for several years. (Holding on to a few of my absolute favorite Bals, but have let most of them go).

I will check out the thread you recommended. I am waiting on a FedEx delivery tomorrow, but I think after that arrival my small collection will be complete.

ehemelay--How is your tobacco suede holding up? Have you treated it with any protectant? I really love the suede PS1 bags!!!

Bullish: I sprayed my suede with Vectra. So far, so good. I am not one to be careful with bags (I'll set them down anywhere short of a mud puddle), but I won't take this one out in the rain. So, it hasn't truly been tested.

I love the color and style of the Medium Tobacco PS1. It's definitely a keeper. But it will be the only suede bag for me, because I travel often and I'm not comfortable bringing it along on a 3-week trip as my only (or one of two) option(s).

When I decided to edit my collection this year I decided on three criteria - it has fit over my shoulder with a winter coat, it has to be a neutral color, and it has to be a bag that I want to/am able to carry for several days in a row if need be. I made a tiny exception to the last one for my suede PS1. But one exception out of 10 isn't so bad.
