When was the cabas alto discountinued?

[msbroberts]

I was so bummed when I heard this was discontinued, it has been on the 'list' for years, but always something more pressing that I had to have...and I thought it's a staple, a classic...I can get it anytime. Plus the vachetta bottom was always a bit of a draw back...

Now I am wondering if I lost my chance...should I try and hunt one down before it's too late...or is there another tote that big (I don't think so)....maybe a could do a SO in damier...

What do you think.

Whatt!!!??? Are you sure, Elux had it up till about 3 months ago (maybe old stock??)....oh, no...now I am really bummed...I will probably never find one!

Ack! just talked to the 866 line, it did just pass the 3 year mark, which is why it was pulled from e-lux...disc. items can only be sold for 3 years. That means I am going to have to try e-bay or let-trade, etc..yuck!

Maybe I can talk my sister into selling / trading hers to me..she was just 'complaining' she has never used it.

That was the first bag I liked when I started liking LV this year. So sad that it's no longer made.

I've seen them on e-bay, but I don't know how many of them are real. You never know with e-bay...

WOW! Discontinued? I saw one available at the LV in the Fashion Mall/Las Vegas. Maybe it wasn't the same bag, maybe I saw the Cabas Mezzo?
