    Aloha all! Even though I have been a PF member for a while this is actually my first post. So anyhow I really wanted the Silver Miroir Speedy for a while and was actually on the waiting list since July and I finally got it! It's really cute and all but I didn't get that normal euphoric moment that I get when I usually purchase a new bag. The problem is that it's vinyl which = plastic. Also, the price is kind of ridiculous for something that's made of quality material. However, I know it's a limited edition bag and it's so freaking cute that I don't know what to do.:cursing: This is the reason I am turning to all of you for your opinions. Is this bag really worth it? It's beautiful but also very trendy and I don't usually like trendy. Should I keep it or should I just get a more classic bag? I'm looking at the epi alma or the Batignolles Horizontal and Epi Pochette. 2 bags for the price of one! ARGH! HELP!

    I would either sell it very fast (I think after the initial hype dies down I think this bag is going to be a flash in the pan) - or better yet, if you're still in the return period, return it and get some classic and pretty that you will really use. If you can, return it. I think it's a ridiculous price for a very flashy, plastic bag personally.

    I know some of the purse members love it, but when I think of the lovely bags you could get in its stead (a batignolles horizontal and a pretty wallet) and use them day in and day out - I would return it in a heartbeat.

    I wouldn't "flip" the price on ebay - on a personal level I would feel better returning it and letting someone right below you on the wait list get it if they really want one.

    I love this bag! Even though its vinyl, i think the detail on the bag is great. However, if you do not love it I would in no way keep it! I have done that with a few other bags thinking that I would eventually like it and it never happens. Returm it if you can and get the pieces you want. I would not sell it for a profit, I agree with letting the next person on the list get it. I would be THRILLED if I had thought I wasnt able to get it and then someone returned one! Keep us posted!! Show us what you end up getting!
