My bag is here...8 days earlier than expected! Yay!

Gosh, so much work went into getting this bag (warning, long post ahead)...

Decided I wanted a mini cammello/dolly (already have a regular black/flamma).
Didn't bother with the may relaunch as it all looked too stressful, decided to try ebay.
Couldn't find anything on ebay.
Expanded my search to mini cammello/anything.
Found a cammello/argento on Tradesy and bought it. Turns out it was a falsely advertised mini mini. Joined PurseForum to complain about tradesy customer service.

Discovered PS Dept and tried them. Got offered a preorder for a regular cammello/rosa and I took it.
Realised I still wanted a mini and decided to explore calf coated as I had a regular cammello on preorder already. Posted in the 'help me find' thread.
Got alerted to a mini rosa in stock at Barneys. Had my credit card blocked at checkout and someone else bought the bag before I could do anything about it.
Got alerted to a mini peony for preorder at BG.
Saw on their website that they also had mini veg tanned buckets, including what appeared to be the cammello/dolly I originally wanted. Pre-ordered the 'brown/red' hoping it was the right one. Cancelled my PS Dept order.
BG randomly cancelled my order. Turns out brown/red was cammello/rosa anyway.

Decided to give the July relaunch a shot, getting up at 1am local time for it. At this point hubby thinks I've lost the plot. Scored her at 1:07.

So on the way I picked up one extra bag and ALMOST ended up with three others... I guess the moral of the story is... don't settle! :D

PS the dolly is amazing IRL. The MG stock photos don't do it justice.


I loved your saga!!! The cammello/dolly is sooooo wonderful. Glad you did get it. Still want to know about the extra mystery one...
 
My mini mini cammelo/dolly finally showed up today.

Long story short, tracking showed it was delivered and signed for on Friday, but no one in my building has it. So today, I received an email from my receptionist that said someone on another floor brought it to me today. The shipping box was opened but the bag was not damaged! So happy!!!

At 5'-0", I find this size perfect for me and is big enough to carry my essentials in.

So glad it turned up. It looks beautiful the way you tied and accessorized it.
