The Elusive P9 Thread

[Grande Latte]

Haha I wish, I shouldn't even be contemplating buying one lol
I'm so torn on which colour to go for. I think the dark blue would go way better with my wardrobe but I'm such a sucker for anything pink

Can't wait to see yours!

My thoughts exactly. I could probably put aside money for a p9 second half of this year. But what color? I LOVE pink, but not this light pink (a little more intense would wear better over time imo).

Then this indigo color? That's a no fail color. So my thinking process is IF I cannot even make up my mind. Then I shouldn't have one. I should let the others who are dead set on their choices, get their bags!

The leather on that turquoise looks so squishy and tactile 😍 I love the nail coordination too.
Congratulations on your indigo and olive requests! Fingers crossed you find out soon. Both are gorgeous. Khaki is an ultimate neutral so very wearable but the indigo is such a gorgeous, saturated shade. You can’t go wrong with either.

Thank you so very much B ☺️
They really are special and wonderfully slouchy and soft. I hope everyone gets the one they want.
I am excited to see what happens this year with the process. Last year was a struggle to get the turquoise in a 25. I honestly didn’t think I would end up getting it!! It took months after release for it to get in my hands 😂
I’m hoping this year won’t be as hard. Thank you for sending good vibes
I agree that I think the green is such a beautiful neutral. I will be happy with either 💙💚

do you know what the process is? I told my SA a few days ago I would like a turquoise 25 too and she said she would put me on a waitlist if one ever becomes available...this is from a smaller standalone, I wonder if I would have better luck with a flagship CA

My understanding in regards to the p9 is that your CA puts you on the waitlist, and then you are nominated for the purchase of the actual bag. How the nominations work is a mystery to me. It’s a crap shoot usually as not everyone gets the chance to purchase. Then you wait for it to be sent out. It can take months unfortunately 🥲.
I easily got my P9 in a 40 classic mono as it stayed available after release for awhile, but the turquoise 25 was much more difficult to secure and I had a high spend history last year. Some colors are harder to get than others of course and your status with LV helps.
I have heard of people getting them easily (I’m assuming VIC and special clients get first dibs)

I hope the turquoise one makes its way to you!! 🩵🩵

Love the photos of your gorgeous turquoise speedy 25. Turquoise is also my favorite color for a P9. Sakura Pink is awfully tempting too. They are both beautiful.

Last week, I took a chance and popped into my local LV to place an order for the Speedy 25 P9 in Turquoise when I noticed this item was showing available online. Monday, it was in preparation. Tuesday, it was in transit. Today, I received an email that it arrived in store. I’m feeling very nervous and a bit overwhelmed. 😮‍💨

Can’t believe it’s really here! 😜
I couldn’t go by to pick it up tonight. I hope my SA is there tomorrow when I finally can stop by LV. Please wish me good luck. 🤞

I wish you luck! Turquoise is BEAUTIFUL. I saw it in person. My CA showed me someone's order that had arrived and allowed me to take a look and "experience" the luxury of P9. It is divine. I was speechless. Congratulations! 🩷 🩷 🩷

Thank you, she’s very special to me 🩵

Congratulations she’s almost in your hands!! I’m so incredibly excited for you!! You are going to love it!! I’m a turquoise girl too and it’s really stunning 🩵🩵
I can’t wait to see your pictures and hear all about your incredible pick up at LV ☺️

I hope you get one!!! It’s a beautiful piece and the color is truly stunning in person. It’s so bright and cheerful. You will love it if you like turquoise 🩵🩵🩵
It still is one of my most coveted and favorite pieces 😊

The turquoise really is stunning. So vibrant! I love your bag charms & your matching nails. It all looks fabulous

Yes I'm glad the sakura pink is darker than the candy. The candy would have been too light for me for sure. All the colours are great. I'm just such an indecisive person & way overthink things. I'm liking the olive as well. The LV gods will decide my fate. I've expressed interest in the sakura pink & indigo. Hoping I will be put out of my misery today lol

I put my name in for a 25 in turquoise today. It's an odd process the way they allocate them so who knows when I'll get it!

Do you know what the allocation process is? My SA said he has passed it to his management team & waiting for a decision & let me know if I can have one for not. I think the turquoise is a great choice. All the photos of the turquoise ones I see, always catch my eye the most. I hope you don't have too long a wait.

 

[ilovemulberry73]

Tbh it was the same with me - was contemplating pink or navy. I'm a sucker for anything navy with tan leather and gold hardware. But I love the pink too (my work area at home is all pink, mousepad, keyboard, headphones...)!!

In the end I picked navy because just like you it also went better with my wardrobe lol
But I think you can't go wrong with navy or pink...they're both soo good looking...if you get a pink, maybe you can change your wardrobe over time to fit it hahahaha

Btw I'm starting to like the green sencha P9 too...

Yes I think I will count myself lucky to get either one! I'm already thinking what outfits I have that go with pink haha!
Is the green sencha the olive one or the dark green one?

I originally reached out to an SA that emailed me to see if I wanted help to buy anything. Not sure why he emailed me. But anyway I enquired about the sakura pink p9 & asked what the process was if I decided to order one. A couple of days later, he emailed me to say good news, I had been validated & could place an order. I didn't respond straight away as was still undecided on colour. I had a few calls & emails saying they needed to be quick to put the order through, and I felt like I was being rushed into it. I had another email & message via WhatsApp again a few days later so said yes please, I will take a pink one or indigo, hoping I would have a better chance if I was flexible with my colour choice. I'm in the UK, but my SA said he is in Brussels. Anyway I'm waiting now for him to hear back from his management team to see if they can let me buy one or not. It all seems very odd. So I don't know if I will be getting one or not lol

Turquoise seems to be a popular choice and I can see why, its so vibrant, a great colour!

Yea, my CA gave me a long explanation.

They put your wish in the system.
Corporate vets it, this process is fast if you’re a known customer and takes longer if you’re not. They then allow the order to be placed and you pay (normally the first of the month)
The system then allocates bags out randomly to the store/for you.

Thanks for the info! So even if you paid for it, it's not confirmed? Or random system allocation you may get it later than others?

If you pay it’s confirmed but the timeframe is not.

Thank you for the explanation. I guess I'm at the being vetted stage then. I was told he would hear by Friday

The new colours are finally out on the website for pre orders!

Hoorayyy!!! Thanks for the alert! I checked my account and the image of the indigo P9 now appears on my page! OMG... I spent about an hour on the website, looking at all the other Nigo x Pharrell items. I may or may not have something new in my cart, hehehe! This is SUCH a GOOD collection! Hands down my fav collection from Pharrell so far. Did you see this in the description of the P9s?

"It features all the exclusive P9 details, such as a removable inside leather pouch and an embossed lobster motif on the handle mounts, symbolizing longevity and prosperity in Japan."

Oh my. I think I have to get the lobster lock. How can I not?!

They absolutely are. I would happily have a red one, a turquoise one, a pink one, a blue one…. Haha 😜 My SA said he’s waiting for the management team to get back to him. So he could say they are all allocated. I wonder how many they make of each colour? I think I would be happy with the pink or indigo. Fingers crossed I get some good news 🥴

Good luck!!! I have a feeling you will be offered both!

I hope you get one!!! It’s a beautiful piece and the color is truly stunning in person. It’s so bright and cheerful. You will love it if you like turquoise 🩵🩵🩵
It still is one of my most coveted and favorite pieces 😊

I have a such a soft spot for the colour turquoise! Lovvve your bag, especially with the pearl & turquoise chain!!! They are meant to be together!
