Well, not thousands, thank god. But enough hundreds that it hurt. I learned my lesson.
Cherry blossom papillon! It was a one-time use then lost its thrill. Luckily I didn't pay much for it preloved. I sold it on eBay!
Surprised to see the many posts regretting the mono speedy 25. It is such a darling bag but I have to say I hardly use mine. Not a fault of the speedy - I just tend to use tote bags (love my new-to-me recently acquired cabas mezzo) and just don't bother switching out of them. Rarely have an occasion requiring a smaller hand-held bag and shoulder totes are just so much easier. I probably won't sell it though because it is in perfect condition and I do still really like it.
I actually love my mono Speedy 25. It was my first LV purchase. I got the Palermo PM as a present but the Speedy 25 I bought myself. They didn't have the bandouliere option then so I bought a bandouliere myself. After that and many other LV bags I bought the Speedy Emp 25 the Speedy 30 B DE and the Speedy 25 B DA. I just sold the Speedy 30 B DE to buy a Speedy 25 B DE so I guess the 25 is the best size for me. However no matter how many I get the Speedy 25 mono is the best for me. I love it . It is so cute!
may I ask why?ive just been eyeballing this item!!
Sorry to see this so late!
I just didn't really use it. It's cute and I love the look of it, but it was too small for me to properly and neatly write things in. HTH!
I regret 2 purchases. My Delightful MM DA, which I just sold on Tradesy and my Ramages Speedy which is sitting in it's dust bag and has never been carried. The Delightful just didnt hang right on my shoulder. I LOVE Azur canvas and want another Azur bag, but the Delightful just didn't work for me. The Ramages is a gorgeous bag., but, I just never carry her. I pull her out to look at her and marvel over her beauty and then put her back in her dust bag. I have the Ramages Sarah wallet and use it and LOVE it. I bought the wallet when the Ramages pieces first came out. So, I started thinking I should get a Ramages bag. I was drawn to the Speedy's but they were selling so fast, I panicked and bought one before they were all gone. It was an impulse purchase.. I should have just been satisfied with the wallet... It's my own fault for spending so much time on this awesome forum!! I see the reveals on here and read about limited things selling fast or how something is going to be discontinued, and I HAVE to have it!! I just bought a ZCW because I read the current style is being phased out for an accordion style.. So, I rushed to get one of the old models before they were all gone.. Did I NEED the ZCW??? No!! But, I had to have it.. Lol. I love it by the way, and will use it and keep it. But, sadly will probably sell the Ramages Speedy ..
This...
It's beautiful & I love it but would never buy another Canvas again. It attracts all the dirt, dust, stain possible! Permanently [emoji30]
Can't wear it in the rain at all as my friend's Cabas (exactly same as mine), the blue leather stained the canvas cloth! She got a store credit from LV as it's irreparable.

It's a shame this bag is so high maintenance!! It looks like such a fun and easy tote. It's still beautiful, though

I agree! I usually wear it to the beach or picnic [emoji4]. This is also the reason I am having second thoughts about getting an Hermes Herbag (off topic)! I love that H bag but don't want to deal with same dilemma as this [emoji22]
Thank god the two purchases that I regret are not expensive ones. I bought a preloved Biscayne Bay PM in Rouge. I thought it looked really cute and I could use it on date nights. I had it for over a year and never was tempted to use it because it was too small and my wallet, cell phone and keys would not fit neatly in it. I finally sold it and got back what I paid for it. The second purchase I regret is my vernis 6 ring key holder in Rose Ballerine. Very pretty little thing but with it being so light and vernis, I am so afraid of color transfer and scuffs that it still sits there in the box. Maybe one day...
Vernis Sarah wallet in Amarante Raye (the Amarante and some other pink striped one) from 2012. I used it twice and it's been sitting in its box for the past 3 years. Too flashy for me.
