I'm considering getting a preloved Cerf tote from a friend, she says it's the smaller size that doesn't come with the long shoulder strap. The pictures I've seen on this thread are mostly of the larger version.

Does anyone have the smaller version? Do you find it big enough for everyday use? I'd love to see pics of what fits inside if anyone has them!

TIA!

I have small size and love it to pieces. It doesn't come with a strap but I prefer hand held bags. It fits my mini iPad so that was a big plus..phone, small makeup bag, LV Insolite wallet n keys.

Thanks for your reply!

If it fits a mini iPad, am I right in assuming that it's around the same size as a Balenciaga City? The things you carry sounds about as much as I carry on a daily basis, so I'm thinking the small might be good enough for me!

Do the straps fit comfortably over the shoulder or is it purely a handheld bag?

Sorry so many questions! I just love the look of this bag but unsure about the size! I'm a big bag girl despite the fact that I don't even carry that much! LOL

Is it true that the Cerf tote doesn't hold its value very well?

My experience has been that it does. I just sold one via consignment in like new condition and achieved only £300 less than the current retail price, which I was pretty happy with (although of course got a bit less myself after consignment fees). I do regret selling it as it was a beautiful bag but have just bought a GST which I think will suit my current lifestyle better!
 
Hi dear all, I am new to this Cerf Tote thread! I am looking to get one for my mum but am bewildered with what I've seen online. Would love to get some clarification here. I've seen images of the tote (measurements: 35cm x 25cm x 15cm) with a removable pouch and a detachable shoulder strap. But there are also pictures I've seen that look like a normal tote, no removeable pouch whatsoever. Sorry I am so ignorant on this. :( I'm more of a fan of the 2.55 but have recently grown to love structured totes.

Hi everyone, i wanted to update the price for chanel executive tote in europe. Just bought mine in amsterdam yesterday for 2350€ (grand shopping tote >30) in burgundy/bordeaux colour. While in my hometown which is australia it cost AUD 3950 for black and AUD4290 for any other seasonal colour. I feel kinda weird with this price difference, did u guys experience the same thing in ur country?? TIA ;)
