I got my first quota bag for this year! Super exciting! I lost an SA but gained a bag.

A bit of drama when I brought it home and discovered that it had scratches on the hardware. I called with great trepidation and explained but the store manager was so kind and asked me to come in.
It was a comedy when I finally decided to go. Within 5 mins of driving I discovered a flat tire! An hour later finally reached the store. They were amazing .. exchanged the bag right away. I still wonder how that even happened as the first bag was packed in plastic as well with stickers on.

Presenting my first Kelly 28 Epsom in ghw! I also picked up the gold chain d’ancre ring which I had ordered in June at the same time. Thanks for letting me share.

Lovely bag. And I’m glad they were able to replace it so quickly for you.
But very curious…how does hw get scratched? Im assuming since it’s a new bag, it still had the stickers on.
Did they provide any explanation?

Thanks! I’m still digesting that I got the dream bag. It was on my wishlist at no. 3. 1 red 2 navy blue. I know it’s the ultimate classic bag and I think DH is very happy that I didn’t get my first choice. :nuts:
I have no idea how that even happened with the first Kelly. It was in plastic with stickers. It’s kind of scary that bags can be repackaged. I think it was old stock maybe? Returned maybe? My new one is from this year. The previous one had the Y stamp. They didn’t explain..but they whisked it away.

sorry I’m not sure if this is too long a post. Please delete if not appropriate

Congrats on your beautiful new bag and ring!! It's all worth it in the end. I just find it amazing that the store has stock for you to exchange a quota bag (you dont have to wait for another one to come in if you know what I mean)...Enjoy your new ins in good health!

Congratulations @Bereal, so super happy for you for the K28, the feeling is fantastic when getting a QB even with a small little twist, in the end it's a happy ending . Just curious when you say "you got your first QB of this year", does it mean you normally get more than one? I think I'm from the same city as you. Thank you in advance ❣️❣️

Thank you for sharing this little nugget of information. One learns something new everyday.
I'm happy you got the classic black with ghw. I have B in those specs and it's my most used bag.
Hope you get a ton of use out of it and take lots of action pics :biggrin:
