Yes I’m going to give it time and keep it. It really is the best tote out there for my needs and it’s just so pretty in DE with that gorgeous red interior. If I have to sell an LV piece to make up some money that was impulsively spent - I might go for the mini pochette. I do adore that little piece but I won’t be as sad. I got an amazing deal on the NF! I got it for close to half of what it currently goes for retail. Right time, right seller. I don’t want to lose out on that. I didn’t get a great deal on the pochette so I can always repurchase preloved jn the future if I miss it and I can use one of my little Coach catch alls for the time being.
 
I acquired a few LV bags at the same time and realized I went a bit crazy and I think I need to sell my neverfull. I do love how functional the bag is and I don’t find other totes comparable. With that said, I bought it as a work and diaper bag. I have a longchamp tote I can use for this. Of course the neverfull is prettier haha. The other thing I noticed as a mom bag is that I can’t leave it in the stroller unattended at the park and I don’t want to shove it in the stroller at stores. I’m not going to walk around wearing the heavy tote either so it realllly only works for visiting people at their house which is not that often since I have 3 small kids and maybe doctor appointments. Do you think it makes sense to sell it? Basically in doing so it allows me to keep the 2 beautiful Alma’s I have in Epi and DE. I was originally going to sell the Alma bb and it’s just too damn pretty and I can’t do it whereas totes don’t excite me as much.
I’d sell the Alma epi keeps the Neverfull & Alma bb DE. Btw I found my Neverfulls even GMs are very light weight
 
@J9Fell4Tiffanys you got a lot of great responses here. Thank God for this forum :smile: I would also advise you to keep the Neverfull. I also wanted to say I understand you wanting to sell something to help fund another purchase:heart:. I went through this a couple of years ago. I ended up selling 3 LV bags, a wallet, and a wallet on a chain (pochette felicie in EPI). The only classic piece I sold was my SpeedyB 25 in DA as I already had 2 other speedies in Monogram and DE (but replaced it last year with a Noe BB in DA) the other bags were seasonal styles. I don't miss them one bit. My reason for selling is I was purchasing Hermes leather bags, and my goal with LV was to only keep classic pieces in my collection that I knew I was going to wear.
The Neverfull IMHO is a classic piece. And I absolutely love LV canvas for how lightweight and durable it is.
If you really need to let go of 1 I agree with @onlyk and would let go of the AlmaBB in EPI as you already have one in DE.
You have plenty of support with whatever you decide:smile:
 
Keep it! Your parenting lifestyle needs with go through so many iterations and when stroller life ceases, you will be glad you kept it. You got a good deal and the prices are only going up. if you sell it and decide you want it down the road, you will have to pay so much more.
This is true. I do need to think beyond the present moment especially considering these precious years fly by in the blink of an eye. I seriously haven’t found a single tote that I’ve really liked as much as the neverfull. I like longchamp for its ease but I prefer their backpacks over their totes.

What a sweet and thoughtful post - thank you :) I am going to try to keep all of my pieces. I impulsively splurged and then I’m going out on maternity leave and I was like ugh I’ll be out of work for a few months this isn’t smart. I did get good deals on all of them especially this neverfull. I will only sell something if I’m in a bind. I hate seller’s remorse. I really love the classic LV pieces and I can’t get past how durable they are. They are really perfect for the season of life I’m in and they’ll continue to work well beyond it. I don’t freak out if my kids go near my Epi leather or DE canvas bc it’s basically indestructible and it allows me to fully use and enjoy them. I think it was smart of you to keep the classics. I know that they are super popular but it’s for good reason! Thank you for taking the time to respond :)
