Well, invent today for the de speedy b, they held the only 30 for me, but it had a manufacturer defect, so I left without it. I got the bloomie, instead. In addition to the defect, the glazing looked really gloppy and blobby. And while I'm not terribly picky, the lock was discolored and tarnished looking- I was completely over the de speedy b by the time I left. :(

I still adore my mono speedy b, and think all of the reveals and mod shots are great, but just couldn't do it.

This is what the de speedy b in the store looked like...I was sneaking a pic, so it isn't very good!

This is a good argument to not order this bag online...must go into the store to buy.
 
as soon as i read that the DE speedy b has a "peeking" red lining from the zipper gap, i inspected mine and to my relief, there's nothing like that whatsoever....mine is made in france......i don't know if it has anything to do with that.....

Yikes! That looks TERRIBLE! They shouldn't even try to sell a bag like that! Good grief! :(

I just can't believe how terrible that bag looks! And I can't believe they'd actually try or even want to sell that bag! Good grief! Not good! I'm glad you walked away! :(

I agree with you: LV was been a big group, because they sell perfect bags. But now? :tdown:Price increase three times a year, but qaualität decreases.
