Also, if anyone feels like answering this, what is making you not want the Garden Neverfull? Is it the silver? Or something else? I’m very curious!
I want it to have pale white, or ivory flowers.....I personally do not care for the (bright) red colored flowers. I totally would have purchased it if it were a pale shade of flowers.
 
For me it's the purple flowers are too much of a contrast then gold with yellow flowers. I see the speedy as a neutral bag :smile:

Yes, and yes To both of your responses. I actually really like the silver canvas but the purple flowers just would not work with my wardrobe. Any other color but bright purple.

I agree, when it comes to the silver bags, I think the OTG is much more harmonic, the flowers are beautiful filigree, subtle, versatile. I would go for that one in a heartbeat :loveeyes::love:
(except the price…:giggle:)
 
Do you guys think that LV sells returned bags to the next unknowing customer? Even with flaws?
My SA in store once said that when they get a defective bag back for exchange, it will get destroyed and never go on sale again. I wonder about online purchases….:huh:
Depending on the severity of the flaws, I’m pretty sure they will try to sell it to the next customer. I show in my LV Haul unboxing an Alma BB with a scratch on it. I suspect it was scratched and returned by a previous customer (sorry I’m not allowed to link the YT post here). Fortunately, LV let me exchange it. So, do check your purchases thoroughly. Although I did have a look at it at the store, I didn’t catch a glimpse of the scratch mark. The lighting at the store was quite dim plus I was buying several items so I was quite overwhelmed!

I think I may be cursed with this bag, UPS lost the 3rd one ordered. I’m not going to reorder if it pops up, I can’t handle any more! :crybaby:
What??? I hope you’re not having to pay for any of it

Is anyone else's strap SOOO long? My minimum drop is 22". Also, website says it comes with a keybell and I have yet to see a single one with one. TIA!View attachment 5584199View attachment 5584200
Hmm… it is very long indeed and it looks like it can be adjusted even longer! What was the designer thinking?? Can LV punch a couple of holes for you so you can shorten it?

I also just found this on Instagram, credit to handbagstodiefor I don’t know if he/she’s on here? But for those that find the strap too long she tried it with others. She also said it’s being worked on by a company that do straps and accessories!

Changing out the straps is a good idea, especially if there’s nothing you can do about the original strap which is too long ☺️

So finally my Speedy arrived today!
I must say, she is really pretty and except of one tiny spot in one corner I think she is all over flawless and perfect!
But you know what, my heart doesnt sing…. :doh:
This bag is too much for me, kind of too much blinky I think. It really screams loud and shines bright…
Dont know how to feel about that, but I guess I wouldnt wear her….
Also to me personal she looks better in the pics, the gold is quite yellowish in real life

The Neverfull is absolutely gorgeous. I only returned mine because I could see tiny cracks in the canvas on one corner (you have to look very carefully in the light to see them but I imagine there would be great potential for them to peel).

Oh no, that corner cracking is very similar to what I found on my Speedy. I would honestly return because I think it is very likely to noticeably peel after use and time. Also if the bag get wet in the rain then water will now penetrate that top layer of canvas which could further ruin the bag xx

It was too fabulous to say "No!!!" to this (like I did when it was released). I blame all the wonderful enablers in this thread !!!! ;):wave: You all know who u are !!!! :giggle:
