Chloe Paddington Bags (February 2005 - March 2010)

[ETROsexualJ]

The bags are pretty cool. We have about 4-5 of them at Saks in Beverly Hills. You can go in to your Saks and an associate can place a locator order for you if they don't have the size/color/bag in stock.

now i really can't wait to get mine

 

[Flutie]

yay! just received word from LVR that my mini paddy will be shipping out tomorrow. So happy!

does anyone have an idea how many days shipping will take?

thanks!

How much did you pay for your mini from LVR? Do you live in the US? How much were customs duties?? Did you have to pay VAT?

No vat for US residents, import tax is like 9 or 10 % not sure if fed ex charges anything on top of that

My mini blue paddy is on its way from Brown's! I can't wait to get it, I think the mini will be adorable

Ooooh! I want a mini in blue too! Does Browns have any more? How much did you pay?

 

[missbradshaw]

Harrods have the mini in blue

I am going to buy a Paddington off eBay ... can anyone suggest a legit seller that is not overly expensive? I also have no idea what colour to get!

OH, and what are the different sizes? I am very much a Paddington newbie and if I invest money into it I want to be sure I get what I want

I would not buy on ebay if I was you, there is a lot of fake bag outhere

why don't you order from LVR? it's safer.

I agree! Too many fakes on ebay to take the chance!

How much did you pay for your mini from LVR? Do you live in the US? How much were customs duties?? Did you have to pay VAT?

with shipping and the credit card fee it came to about $1090.00.

It's still in transit- it just is listed as "picked up" and doesn't seem to have left italy yet. humph. I'm going to call fed ex and see what's up. It's supposed to arrive on monday.

I'll let everyone know what my duty fees end up costing. I do think it will be a few hundred cheaper than the US price of 1430.00 (this is an anthracite mini paddy).

Here are the pictures of the AW05 Chocolate and the SS06 Chocolate. The first two are AW; The second two are SS. The burgandy undertone of the AW captured nicely in natural light, but it looks darker IRL than the photo, with more of a subtle undertone than the strong one seen here.

Roey - great bags. Which one are you going to keep (AW05 or SS06?)

Right now, I'm keeping both! I have a real use for brown bags in my wardrobe.

 

[kelsbags]

Nice bags, Roey. I'm a brown lover. My paddy is khaki and I wish I had it in brown.

Yes, they are still available on the Brown's website. Mine came to about $1200 CAD (they refund the VAT). Here is the link:

I'll post pictures of mine when it arrives!

thanks for the pics roey! I like the s/s better.

Color-wise I agree but the leather on the AW is so soft and buttery;the bag looks really vintage IRL. I'd like to put that leather and the SS color together. Hopefully the SS leather will break in nicely.

Hey guys! Need some advice...does the hardware on this bag look okay? I'm not sure if the rivets have turned slightly blackish (or is that the way its supposed to be?) It's the tan mini from last season.
