my alma bb in monogram first bag I bought and it was just small and I worried about the vachetta bottom all the time!! sold it but should have priced it higher! bought a preloved speedyb monogram and absolutely love it!! I'm also regretting the delightful pm I bought. not sure I'm a hobo style girl and the strap has me anxious all over again with the vachetta leather! probably going to sell it too!
 
I bought my first LV bag from a friend who needed the cash without even checking the bag. Its a vintage speedy 25. I didn't realize until I had the bag cleaned professionally that it was 10 years based on date code. I got it for $350. The leather were the lock is hung is cracking. :( I kind of regret getting that bag. I just console myself with the thought that I was helping a friend.
 
I think Louis Vuitton Melrose was definitely my regret, I got it on eBay for like 2500 3,4 years ago and back in the day I'm not really know what I like yet, I just buy it becuz it cheap compare w retail prices, end up of never carry it even one time.
 
Anything in DE. I bought DE 3 items, sold 1 and have sworn off that pattern for good. The treated leather has done some real damage to my shoulder in the past and even though I've had the 2 items for years, they're as stiff as the day I bought them. They only get used in the winter when I'm wearing a heavy coat.

I returned the Bloomsbury PM DE for this very reason. The strap kept hurting my collar bone when I walked because it was so stiff and hard. The SA told me it would soften up with time but I was skeptical it would. Shame it looked great.
 
It's not really a regret per se, but I bought by never full mm in mono because I read so many threads of the ebene one having issues with strap peeling etc but I wish I had just gotten the ebene problems and all. Every time I see someone carrying one, I feel a little pain inside that I didn't go for that and got mono instead.


If you got the Ebene you prob would have lusted after the mono! The story of my life, sigh.
 
Neverfull PM. Much too small.


Yup, me too. It was way too small. And the speedy multicolor. It was so pretty but after a few years I thought it just seemed like a younger persons bag. And it was soooo heavy. I just sold my Pochette Metis, too. I know it's the in-demand bag right now and it's really beautiful but it just didn't have enough space for me!
 
I love my mono petit Bucket and DE Delightful PM. But they are open at the top and it stresses me out that I have to strap my wallet to the bags every time just for my peace of mind. I got my bucket 12 years ago and the delightful last year. I thought I'd be ok with open bags by now... I painfully learned that it's not the case. Needless to say, my delightful will be my last open top bag.

I sold my Bloomsbury pm for the same reason. Also it would keep hitting my leg as I walked, I would have to keep one hand over it to stop it bumping me. I love how it looks but it didn't work for me.

By the way you have an amazing collection!
