I would go with the black/flamma, since it seems like you are still thinking about it after you sold your regular one. That and I find the contrast striking. I don't want to get more than one of the same bag, but I also really want a mini black/flamma :graucho:

I adore the sun interior! Congrats.
 
Oh very cool:)
Thanks for that idea!
Your bag is so gorgeous....I may need a black one too!

Ha ha..I was a valley girl:)) like oh my god..... I used to date surfers and they'd say "oh but your a Val, my friends will tease me." I told them to deal with it. Lol

:p

I was a New Yorker who grew up on Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Valley Girl. I love my Valley life!
 
Sooooo bummed. Just got home after a week traveling for work to finally look at my mini bucket that arrived in the mail and look at the stitching on the strap to the bag. ImageUploadedByPurseForum1438142422.806846.jpg

Besides this, I love the looks of the bag. Can't believe how light it is. Almost feels like plastic but I love it none the less. First time touching and seeing it in person

Oh dear, I am sorry, that is very disappointing. Try emailing the stockist who sold it to you? If they are no help, there's always MG themselves. I find them extremely helpful with great CS every time I've mailed them. I hope you manage to sort this out.
 
I'm frustrated and so disappointed. I had my name of wait list for MG bags but I only saw email about Pre Order open for Asia Agent - LaPrendo 2 hours later. By the time I went online, all Mini bucket was sold. Lady bag n Mini Backpack in my choice of color was sold out as well. Funny LaPrendo only have Crossbody bag in calf leather. So I didn't order anything! I'm starting to feel I have to give up my hope of getting MG bags in my desired size n color [emoji20] really sad!

Check in with LaPrendo again by phone! I called a couple weeks ago to inquire about their next pre order, and instead was told that they had extra stock and late cancellations for their next delivery = I snagged a mini bucket which in fact arrived today.

I know they have a Sept/Oct delivery so perhaps the same situation may come up again?
 
Just received my first MG bucket in Mini size, and frankly it's larger than I expected. I wonder why do so many retailers order mostly Large buckets and Large Totes? Obviously the Mini and Mini Minis sell out much more quickly.

I thought I'd love the mini and did until I got a large. Now, I'm converted. I love the large. The mini isn't exactly tiny which is why I think they added the mini mini to the mix.

Oh no! It looks like the glue didn't take quite right. I would contact MG and get them to replace it.

I got the same problem as you on my black mini saffiano. I've only been using my bag for a month and have not been carrying heavy items and one day found out the red stitches and glue sticking out. I was no afraid that if I continue to carry it like that the strap will one day completely fell apart. I didn't want to go through the hassle of making the complaint to MG and shipping it back for repair. I simply put some super glue and glue it back. I will attach a picture of how it looks like now.

Thanks for sharing! Looks quite good however for a new bag (literally brand new, just pulled from the box) this shouldn't be happening. I emailed them and haven't received a response. Hopefully they will respond quickly and cover the price for shipping both ways as I already have paid $25 shipping to receive the bag. I feel like they should have stronger quality checks as the bag is so simplistic as is
