The what fits videos sometimes can be deceiving. Yeah you can put everything but the kitchen sink in it. However it won't work for me if I have to take out other stuff to get to what I need. On top of scratching my hand in the zipper every time I reach for something. Super cute but it was a pass for me.
The Nano is really really nano:(

Thanks for the photos, I see that you basically use to fingers to hold it open, lol. I went to my local LV store and they said my nano is definitely the right nano. That's all I needed to know. My next question is...do you use Apple Garde or anything on the vachetta? My LV tote I have for about 7 years has water spots on the handles. I'm so annoyed about that. I bought another LV back in December but it has black straps. I swore I wouldn't get the vachetta but when I saw this nano..well you know, lol.Here are a couple of pics with mine
I’m not very big and I have tiny hands
I don’t mean to minimize your concerns
It is a very small bag!
I’m currently using a Chanel mini O pouch and an IPhone 11 pro, and they fit. You do have to turn them sideways to get them in.

I hear ya. I used it for the first time this past weekend and went to my local LV store to make sure it was the right size and I ended up getting the small zip around card case to use with it. I kept my keys and phone in my jacket pocket so the bag was pretty much empty. My husband was like "you spent $1400 on a bag to put your **** in your jacket pocket". Well, yeah!
I like to read a complaining treadh filled with humor. Sorry for the nano being so damn nano!
You’re welcome! I was holding it open to take good photos.
I’m glad it’s the right Nano
I’ve never used anything on my vachetta. Some people do, so they might chime in. Get it tanned a bit and put it near a window. It doesn’t rain here in California much, so I haven’t worried about water. Not unless my slobbery Golden Retriever got near it
OP had me with the volkswagen and the clowns coming out! Yeah, nano speedy is pretty nano but it is so freaking cute!
Hi your bag is NOT the nano speedy. It’s the mini hl speedy which was much cheaper and smaller than the nano. Sellers call both bags nano and that’s incorrect.

Another pic to see the size difference. HTH. These aren’t my pics but I have both and use them for different purposes. I definitely use the nano more.

Was it really necessary to tell me that my bag is "much cheaper"? I made a mistake and you corrected me. You don't know someone's wealth and while I did buy it when it was produced, you don't know if it was cheap for me to buy or not. I find your comment pretty rude and condescending.
I read Calipursegal's comment to mean that people are committing fraud by listing a less expensive bag as a more expensive bag in order to charge an inflated price for it. I don't feel like she was criticizing you for buying the mini hl, but saying that you shouldn't have been charged the same price as a nano for it.
If you're happy with the mini hl and the price you paid for it then that's great. Otherwise you may want to get your money back and try again.
Oh dear, this is how I read it as well. I think she was trying to be very helpful and not at all condescending. I get that you may be upset about your purchase and may be reading in as a result, but I believe she put those pictures together and her informative post very much in a kind spirit to help you.
ETA: oh, now I’m confused. I thought you were the OP. I think she was talking about the OP...

I think she meant "cheaper" as in "less expensive than" or "lesser in price than", not that you are cheap or that the bag is cheap, or that you having bought the bag means you are cheap. Syntax error.
I am not the OP. I purchased my bag in 2004, not recently. I don't see how she's talking about the OP when I am the one who shared pictures and she quoted me saying, "Hi your bag (emphasis added by me) is NOT the nano speedy." That to me reads that she's talking to me and not OP--why else am I quoted?
Cheap is quite different than less expensive in my book. When I worked in retail you were trained pretty quickly never to say 'cheap' due to its connotations and instead use 'less expensive' or some other variant. I still don't understand why the price at all had to be mentioned, it has no bearing on me or the OP, since she bought the nano speedy and I was corrected as I was wrong, which I admitted. I do not see the need to bring "cheap" into anything.
I am allowed to feel how I feel, even if that's now how she intended it.

Oh goodness. I replied super early trying to helpful. I didn't even realize I quoted two different people! I thought OP was saying her mini HL was the nano. I was not at all trying to be condescending. It looks like others understood my intent. Sellers list the mini HL as the nano and charge buyers current retail which I think is wrong. I thought OP had the mini HL and that's why she was unable to fit the same amount, because it was sold to her as the nano.
I definitely did not intent to offend at all. I posted pics thinking I was helping, but clearly I got mixed up. I have both bags, one was cheaper (less expensive) than the other. I did not mean anything snide by saying that. I will stop posting in the wee hours for sure.

There's 'cheap' (eg. "Man, you're one cheap mofo") and then there's 'cheaper' which is what you said. The latter only has positive connotations for me as I'm ALWAYS after a bargain
As an aside, I remember my first LV in 2002 was a choice between an Epi PA or a Speedy Mini HL. Both were around 400 USD back then. I really wish I got the Mini Speedy now... I'm hoping to get a secondhand one on ebay in reasonable condition for about the same or more money (gasp...). But then now I see that the current Nano is that much bigger... I really just need to look away lol
