FYI...the US website is playing tricks again. The Mono version shows "place in cart" but if you try it says out of stock. Looks like the Red empreinte is still available though. I've been carrying my IR again this last week and I still love how practical it is.
They are doing that on a number of the PM versions. It seems to be because they are trickling in a few you can actually put I. Your cart and follow through with buying. You just have to hit the timing just right. I've been able to put a black emprient in my cart a few times over the last few weeks (and could have checked out)....but I've been holding out for the mono and kept removing the black from my cart. Today I got super lucky and was finally able to snag a mono and complete the purchase online. :)
 
I'm joining this club!

Went to the LV boutique in my city and paid full advance for a mono PM. They were completely sold out of it (of course), but they had a reverse monogram PM that was waiting to be picked up, so I was at least able to try it on.

I was very tempted by the reverse mono, but went with regular mono in the end.

The SA told me it would take 4 weeks. I live within 10 mins walking distance from the boutique (0.4 miles). You can bet I'll be there within the hour once I get the text, lol.
Sounds very expensive to live so close to a LV store ;)

Hi, I think I am as tall as you (180cm) and I have two PMs. They both reach almost to my hips. Its that long enough?? I have photos here with my black PM in Empreinte. You can check!!!
Hi what about when you use as cross body? I tried on the Monogram PM and seemed a little high.. So My SA said get the empreinte leather and if need be, I can have another hole put in the strap to make longer.. He agreed not sure why the Monogram PM does not have another hole for us giants! smile..

I just received my two new PM. So excited. Is it just me or both locks are not really centred? Is it what it should be like? TIA

They look ok. Fill up the bags and then you will know if they are truly misaligned. Because they tend to place the lock where it seems most straight with the flap. But you will know if its off after you fill the bag because if its off the flap will look crooked after closed.

I just ordered a mono PM online and it should be in by Monday! Does anyone have a summary of what I should look for regarding flaws when I pick it up? I know I've seen a post about it on here once but it was a while ago.

Wooohoo! isn't it crazy how they pop up randomly?! Congrats!
I would look for centered lock, even glazing with no lifting or bubbles.
