I would say that it depends who you talk to. Some people (like myself) do not like magenta, eggplant, marigold, etc.. and would want only older, natural, more vintage colors like the older caramels, '04 marron, '03 olive, '04 anis, etc.. but most of us don't post much anymore. The same group also likes the pebbled bags, the flat brass, the old messengers, pewter hardware etc... Then there are those who like the brighter colors like magenta, apple green, '05 turq., eggplant, etc. Some people belong to both groups but I am not sure there are many.
