So I'm looking for some bucket support here! I love bucket bags; they've always been my favorite. I love the look of the brandy/avion. The only issue I'm having with it is how stiff it is. And I still have the tags on it and there are already scratches. Since I'm not able to return it--I'd love some feedback--have any of you felt this way about your buckets at first and did it pass? I'm not usually a structured bag kind of person but I love the shape. Any enabling and positive feedback will help!! TIA!

I have never been big on imperfect bags with marks or scratches but it is something I had to get over with MG. Never seen a flawless one especially after a little use.
Using a conditioner or leather Milk does help to blend. None of mine have softened any though. They remained stiff and structured but that's what I like about this particular bag.

Of all the colours Brandy seems to show marks/ scratches the most, but also looks amazing. I was alarmed when I got mine and got scratches / water marks when I first got it, but then decided not to baby it and just enjoy it! The marks on the black ones are less obvious than the brandy

I posted a couple of pictures of my brandy tote in the care and maintenance thread, where you can see the imperfections in the brandy. Might be helpful to see.

Interesting! I know I've been seeing different prices, so I'm curious to see what the next season/shop relaunch brings.

Thanks for mentioning it, and Bergdorf - I've been wanting a pink mini the most, but also the regular Cammello/rosa. It was in stock, so I ordered it. I wonder if it will go through! At the very least, I can return in to BG if I don't like it =) Hope you love yours!

I feel your pain- I had two orders cancelled fromBG online four days after I ordered each. I was frustrated and called the store and ironically they had what I was looking for and even texted pics! The girls were super helpful!
