I just ordered a speedy b 30 the dimensions online say 11.8X 6.7 but all the base shapers I see are 11.75 x 7 I'm assuming that won't fit? What is everyone using?

I bought two from this seller. One for my 25 and after I saw the quality, I ordered a second one for my 30. This is the one that I bought for my Tahitienne Speedy B 30....matches nicely.

Excellent quality. Quick shipping. Cut with a little extra room so that it doesn't scrape against the bottom of the Speedy.

It happens. Hit up your local hardware store and get a bottle of Brasso. It works like a charm!

Brasso scratched my two month old lock. Dozens of little fine scratches. If the lock is old, different story. My brand new lock looked ten times better before I took a TINY bit of Brasso to it. If I had it to do all over again, I would never have used it.

Hi everyone, I purchased the speedy b25 but it seems my lock has sort of oxidized? I'd only had it about a week before it turned this color. Is it normal?View attachment 3739987

Yes, same thing happened to mine, part of it is climate. I think mine tarnishes faster in humidity. I used a tiny bit of ketchup (tip from someone on tPF) directly on it, rub gently with fingers, then rinse it in warm water and wash it (to get any residue off) with liquid soap and again rinse in warm water. Dry with non abrasive cotton cloth. Works great and looks new afterwards. I would never recommend toothpaste as it can scratch. Good luck!

I love these pics! I am considering either a Speedy B 30 in DA or DE and this just makes the decision harder. :confused1:

I think they are both so pretty... but the azur is scary to use it... I really enjoy both, but if I could just pick one it would definitely be the Ebene. Its so worry free, and the golden all over make it so beautiful... its a grab and go bag.... I think we all have been there... decisions decisions.... good luck!

I have the NF in DA and LOVE it along with the Speedy B in Mono. I have an affinity for vachetta :heart: and also agree that a grab and go is a must! There is just something about those vachetta Speedy handles with the glazing!!

If you have a Neverfull Azur, you are already a vachetta expert ... go for it! The Azur is my favorite print... gorgeous! And you already have a brown speedy....
