Thank you for the kind words, Arlene619 :)

It is unbelievably gorgeous here - the sights and sounds...everything! Sadly, my DH and I will be heading back home to CA tomorrow. ;(

Back to work and reality after a week of pure bliss in paradise! At least I get to see my beloved doggie. Lol :)

Hello ladies of tpf!

So excited to share my very first post and newest purchase from the lovely Louis Vuitton in Waikiki! She is so darn gorgeous and I can't stop staring at her. The icing on the cake is the price is much lower in Hawaii than California (and LV website) - lower taxes too - can't beat that! On the website it is priced at $1780 at the moment and sales tax in my neck of the woods in CA is 9.00% but here in Hawaii, it's priced at $1620 with about 5.00% sales tax!!! O_o

They were sold out initially when I went in 3 days ago but when I called this morning, they said they had an abundance that just came in. So if anyone living in or about to visit the Waikiki area is interested in this purse, I advise you to go to Louis Vuitton on Kalakaua Street ASAP to purchase this beauty! The SA was super sweet and brought out 3 different PM's for me to choose from and wasn't pushy at all.

I also ended up getting this lovely LV facettes bag charm too! So satisfied with my purchases, price and service here. Thanks for letting me share. :smile:

Hi there ladies - was a proud owner of a new PM on Thursday!! Then noticed blooming scratch on the top part of the lock. Going back wed for an eight week wait for a new one! Gutted as I'm in love!

Just ordered my PM in empreinte noir and found out that over 100 people are also on the waitlist at my nearby boutique for this crossbody. Is this insane or what. [emoji30] It won't be coming until April and with a wait list this long it'll probably be a year [emoji22][emoji22][emoji22].

Alright! After two failed attempts, I finally got to bring home my very own Pochette Metis.

Here's the thing, date code reads SD4146 which I believe means it's made in US during 44th week of 2016. I assume once a bag is made it has to sit in a warehouse in a bit, then make its way across the border (I'm in Canada) and so on and so forth? Why I'm concerned is that I hope it's not areturned bag.

Though this bag was ordered in for me by the SA....ladies, I need some reassurance that I'm overthinking things! :amuse:

Where did you order it from? I'm in Canada too and just took back a Metis that was crooked. They had another one in store and I didn't want it either. I'm going to get a preloved one made in France instead

From the LV at Holt Renfrew Yorkdale. The plastic was still on the hardware and there aren't any marks or anything. All in all it looked and felt pretty new to me...
