Help please! I went in to LV to get a new key pouch because the SA let me know some came. She ended up showing me the PA in Azur and convinced me to buy one since I had nothing in that print and I had my Felicie with me which I said was a little too small. The price increase is insane on these. It was $1250 I think. Should I keep it?

It sounds like it wasn't even on your radar. Going in for a key pouch and coming out with a PA? Talk about an upsell! There are other items in DA that you could consider that don't have that price tag, if price is a factor for you. The price increase is almost all across the board with LV and other designers, so unfortunately if you're after something, you have to pay the price.
Depends on if you really want it… It sure is a practical bag, though me myself probably would not get it for that price, but I am also a more medium sized bag girl…
Thank you and yes it was and up sell! I wouldn't mind the cost if it was worth the value. She sold me by saying they were very hard to get and very versatile. I think that I asked about the multi pochette and that is how we ended up talking about the PA. I am a mom of 4 and a student so a small bag I can put my essentials in is what I grab most. I think as I get older I am just not sure about the LV canvas on certain items. Some of my friends has the PA in high school gifted by their Mother or as a graduation gift. The thought of spending this costs seems crazy.
The cost is crazy and keeps going up. It's nice that she mentioned it though, since sometimes there are items everyone is looking for and they're tucked away in drawers. If you don't ask, you could otherwise miss out. I'm no spring chicken (52) and I use this bag quite a bit. Just brought it with me on a cruise and used it with a vachetta strap during the day and put a gold chain on it at night. Easy, lightweight bag to grab and use with a summer outfit or even a light colored winter outfit. The price will only keep going up.
Haha so funny!! Good points
It will keep going up. The versatility is what drew me to the bag. I can use my other LV strap and/or buy the adjustable strap when it comes in stock. I felt it was versatile and I live in AZ so it will literally go with everything. I will not wear jeans so no worries about color transfer.I should also add I haven't had any color transfer yet! I bought both straps from Organize My Bag and they look very similar to LV.Haha so funny!! Good points
I bought mine 2yrs ago and still looks like the same the day i purchase it. I already have the PA in mono but when i see the azur online i didnt think twice as it was already hard to find item back then. It is perfect for summer and a grab and go bag. I am also a mom of 2boys and i love to be handsfree. I use my other crossbody straps when i want to. I also think if money is not a problem for you then grab it. The prices will just go up. If one day you decide to sell it, you can easily sell and get back your money if not more. I actually love the azur more than the mono
The PA in Azur is pretty difficult to get. They show up online from time to time but only for a few minutes. It fits at least 2x the things the felicie does. If I had gotten the PA first I probably never would have gotten my felicie tbh (and the felicie costs more than the PA). They’re really nice for everyday bags and super convenient imo. I would keep it. The price is only going to go up so if you decide you want it later it may be hard to get or more expensive.
Thank you, definitely agree! So funny you say that I was thinking I’d rather have two of the PAs instead of the Felicie. My store here had both monogram and DA in stock for the PA.
i ended up getting both PAs after the felicie lol. I’m a huge PA advocate.
I really wanted to get the PA in Azur also but didn't think I would use it as often as the monogram one as I have the monogram 16mm strap to match. The PA and mini PA was never on my radar at all. I saw it in store and was like this is kind of meh, don't get what the big deal is, I know it's hard to find etc etc. But after a few months I decided to get it and it has become one of my go to grab and go bags!
I hope you'll get to enjoy your new PA!

I was fortunate to snag the PA in Azur right before the increase after searching the website for 5 years!!! I had a SA years ago and he always said it was out of stock so I stopped asking. I have noticed it available more the last few weeks especially after the increase of course. Anyway, I would keep it as its the perfect first Azur piece and it’s really beautiful in my opinion.
I would definitely keep it. I have all 3 prints plus the old version in mono cerises and always reach for the old version more than my bigger bags, whether it’s to use on its own or throw into bigger bags. It’s just too versatile to ignore..
Oh and i still got the PA in azur even after i got the Pochette Felicie in azur. i always loved the look of the PA in azur with light colored clothes.
