bijin [/b]- I can't believe LVRs explanation for the difference in price! - that sounds more like an explanation you'd get from a shady eBay seller! Does anyone know what the prices were in the states or NAP? Yeesh... more reasons to question LVR


I know it sounds fishy but what to do?
well, i finally got my choc paddington -9:30am our time when delivery time was 7pm this evening and guess what! i didn't get charged customs fee! i'm sorry for those still waiting for their paddy from LVR but japanese customs rocks! they do such a good job!
the choc paddy. since this was my first paddy and LVR was good this time, i think i'll order from them again! how anyone seen the jeune? i wonder if it's mustary like the balenciaga anis???

Bijin -- !!

Anything for you mammab! Will send via email...

Oh man, thank you sooooooooooo much !! It looks nice and crinkly -- not stiff at all. Hugest Karma ever ever ever.

Oh crap, I SO did NOT need to see that Edith photo -- OMG !!! OMG !!! OMG !!!

SoCAl -- can you take some extra shots of the Edith? Close up? Pretty pretty pretty puuuuhhhhllleeeeezzeeeeeeee? *begs*

oooooh, Mammab - my Edith arrived from LVR today. LOVE IT!! (my crystal ball sees an Edith in your future )

 

[bijin]

Bijin -- !!

thank, mammab!
you guys don't know how lucky you are to be able to order bags for comparison, choose the best ones and return the unwanted ones!
well, i guess it's good for my credit card..
funny, dh had my paddy on his arm showing it off to me. he knows how long it's taken to get here! i'll post pics later.
gosh, i'm so ready to order another one but which one and which color?
has anyone (shouting) seen the jaune IRL???

 

[bijin]

mammab, i've lost count of how many gorgeous paddies you have?

has the crown been handed to you or socal? or does roey still have it?

 

[blu_genie]

Oh man... SoCal you need to post those pics on the thread!! Not that we all need more encouragment, I mean heck, bijin hasn't even checked her side pockets and she's plotting her next purchase! but I wanna seeeeeeeeee!!!

And your noir zippy was very hip in my dream, definitely in NYC but it must not have been me carrying it cuz I ain't so hip. But I think the zippy has more modern lines than the satchel, so I think the noir emphasizes that.

bijin - can you post pics? Congrats!!

 

[mundodabolsa]

I am desperately in need a of a paddy roll call here between the queens, I can not keep track anymore!! please, mammab, socal, and roey, blu genie, make a list for me of the ones you have, and the ones you're still considering, I need to get this straight in my head

 

[bijin]

feels like spring just because i got my choc paddy!!!!

Terrible isnt it? I want another one. Mousse maybe, or if the paddy satchel comes out in the dove *starts to plot*

 

[madem0iselle]

i honestly dont find the edit appealnig, does look like a bag that my teacher would use to stuff our works in =P but it is very laid back loooking paddington is still the best =) Congrats BIJIN! youre so lucky not to get paid for custsoms i have to pay at least $100 CAD not sure yet ill tell you guys when i get home tomorrow cant wait!!

 

[Jellylicious]

Here I am, reporting for bag count duty (where's the salute icon?)! I have:

Tan Satchel
Whiskey Satchel
Chocolate Satchel
Noir Satchel
Chocolate Bowler

I believe Mammab and I are either sharing the crown or she has surpassed me and I have to pass it along, although sharing is nice! It depends on what she does with those Blanc hobos, LOL! Congrats on the Blanc satchel - I hope it arrives in perfect condition!! I know the feeling of heart racing, hands shaking when you're trying to beat others to the checkout!

Congrats to everyone on their new bags - Paddingtons and Ediths! The pictures are lovely, and also very tempting. I am going to hold off on Edith for awhile, wait for the hype to diminish, and figure it out from there. I am on bag overload now, and only own 12! Whiskey is finally going to work with me tomorrow after a month or so of not carrying her. Felt good to get her out of that dustbag!

 

[SoCal]

Roey, I salute you! Oh paddy queen!

I hope you decided to keep all the Zippys because they all look amazing on you! I don't think you'll tire of multiples. I often look at my Paddington family and ask myself if next year I'll have one of those horrible, "Whatever was I thinking?! bag moments, but I really do adore these bags.

The bag hospital - LOL! I like your Edith pics and she looks like a nice enough bag but agree that for the price tag, you have to be in .

Professor and Doctor Paddingtons? Why oh why?? Chloe has already masacred the traditional Silverado; I really hope the Paddington doesn't end up in the sewer too. Or as blue genie aptly put it - become a repository for tampons!

Lilygirl and mundodabolsa, thanks very much for your input!!

I got my Paddy in the mail today. The anthracite is sooo gorgeous!! Now I want a Paddington hobo too. Can someone tell me what colors the hobo come in? I'd love one in anthracite.

SoCal - OMG you've got so many new babies to play with! Your Edith is a beautiful colour! So are you trying to decide between noir, blanc, whiskey, and the Edith now? I think you should keep the Edith! Post pic with outfit!

 

[jbelle]

Congrats to everyone who received their Ediths - you must keep up posted on how you like them, how they wear... if any of them make you wanna go back to school, get a PhD, and turn into a professor.
