STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

i'm buying a LV bag...

NCshopper · Hermes

I'd get it from the store for absolutely no other reason than instant gratification.

I got mine in March from the LV counter in Neiman Marcus. I don't really see any pros or cons to either an LV boutique or eluxury. It depends on how close you are to a boutique, and if you want to pay for shipping.

Which style/shape are you getting?

jen · Kate Spade

Buy it in person-the experience is so much fun!

bluediamond · Dooney & Bourke

I would def. buy it in person. :)

bumblebee · Coach

i just made the same decision--i'm going to buy myself the Speedy 30 with my holiday bonus.

which one are you getting?

tara t · Marc Jacobs

bumblebee, i'm getting the speedy 30 too !! were we seperated at birth?

i don't have a counter to go to in good old south carolina. so i have to order.

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

I got the Speedy 30 too, it was my first big purchase after getting my first full-time job.

Even though you can't get it in person, it will still be exciting!

Congrats!

Oh tara t...we must ship you off to an LV store! It's so much fun to buy in person because the good SAs will take care of you, plus I totally agree with the instrant gratification factor!

i should have bought it last time i was in vegas. that would have been even better. poor me. is this instant gratifacation so great that i should wait to buy it until i can do it in person??

i saw my MJ bag in california and didn't buy it, but i had dreams about it so i ordered it from NYC.

i've never had instant bag gratification?!??!? oh NOOOO !!!!

I'd try it on in store and then order from eluxury (no tax, plus you can get money back from ebates, I think).

But then again, I am cheap, which is probably why I don't have an LV bag.
