little_j said:My dark argon rockie arrived today from Italy! They left the box outside my door step though so just glad no one stole it!! Super super happy with my rockie I'll try and post pics soon but for now I'm just too excited about it haha. I initally wanted a black rockie but the dark argon is just a nice colour but still neutral enough to go with everything.
I'm glad I got this colour so that I'm able to buy a black diego![]()
I ordered mine from that site too!! was supposed to get it today, but I was at workso I called and changed my shipping address to my work address
hopefully I get it tomorrow. can't wait!!
ps how much did you pay in duties? I think mine is $140 :|
I am considering the Rockie. Actually had a black peebled one with antique brass hardware delivered. I thought the combination would be perfect for me, as it is more understated but I actually found it a bit dull. Mainly though, I was disappointed with the hardware itself. I didn't find it a particularly nice shade of brass, but that is personal taste. What I found amazing is that the different pieces didn't match. The hooks and zip handles are a different tone than the studs at the bottom, kind of more opaque. This may be too picky on my side and it is not a big issue. But then, the zip itself is a COMPLETELY different color, a definitely red brass, as opposed to the yellowish brass in hooks and studs. All this differences in tone make the bag look rather cheap, in my opinion....
Also, uno of the thinner panels is smooth, not peebled. Know these irregularities are supposed to be a "feature" of the Roccos, but it just looks bizarre, to have such a heavely (and gorgeously) pebbled bag, and then suddenly this thin stripe of smooth leather... Smart how they have managed to sell it as a feature, as opposed to a bag which should maybe not have passed the quality control?
I don't know... I have now ordered and I am waitung for a black small pebble with yellow gold hardware. i saw it in other colors in store and it does look nice. But I am concerned about the overall quality of these bags, with them being made in China and all the pipping issues reported here. I know they are not premium bags but still, the price should warrant some quality... You can get a Celine for the same after all...
D
Can anyone report about yhe pipping inthe new small pebbled bags? Many thanks.

What celine bag can you get for the price of a Rockie? I thought celine is about $3,000..
They do have a wide range.
I am actually thinking the Trio. There is a large size I am ogling for 650 eur (that's around $ 850 I believe).
I also just got a Celine pouch clutch for less than 300 eur (on sale). Of course that's a different sort of bag altogether, but I do think that the Trio would be an alternative to the Rockie for me.![]()
I didn't pay any duties. I'm from Australia though so anything under $1000 I don't have to pay extra.
Bummer that you had to pay duties![]()
Wonderful, Emmzk!
Please post a reveal when you get your Rockie!
