I ordered a speedy B off another gal on ioffer, who bought it from Jacky and I absolutely love it. The hardware is shiny and the monogram is exactly the same as my authentic insolite wallet. Same texture, feel, color, etc. It also stands up straight on its own and has the house shape. The stitching is impeccable. I have been using her since I got her and she's so convenient to wear!

coco - I had a tivoli GM from Joy and the monogram was darker and the LVs were dull compared to my authentic galliera. I sold her off craigslist right away. Also the shape of the tivoli on top was totally off but I think this is true for all reps of the tivoli GM that I've seen. My mom has the authentic tivoli GM and it is not as wide and it has a more straight top.

Here's a crappy pic of my speedy B with my authentic wallet from my phone until I have time to take more pics.

pinkprincess113 - congrats on your find - that looks really good!! it looks like j darkened the leather sealer and it's smooth looking, not blotchy. what an improvement. is this the 30?

 

[IvyStar]

That speedy looks great! How is the vachetta? Is it turning on its own a bit?

I also had a Tivoli GM from Joy and the front heat stamp was off..just not deep enough embossment which is a deal breaker for me. Also the handles were off..the part of the handles where the holes are were way too wide. Also, the structure was off. The Tivoli has a difficult structure to replicate I think.

I did a search on the thread. Haven't been on the rep game in awhile, but I believe Catty got busted (i.e. legal action pending I'm sure or they just ripped down her site.)

 

[amethyst_sparkle]

my mandarin rh city and rh first have arrived and they are spectacular!!! i love orange and this color just sizzles. mandarin is like Hermes orange, perfect year round, and the leather is the same as moutarde and BDR; ultra delicate and super soft. oh! and there were two little surprise stowaways hidden inside the bags... i LOVE T&D! i'm so excited to wear them out. pics taken in partial shade.

 

[lucy92]

^i am loving your mandarin first.
did you order any colors? i just want to know if you've pre-ordered any of the other colors so i can try to figure out when my coqu. and blue lavande stuff will arrive.

 

[amethyst_sparkle]

hey lucy. yes, i ordered a coquelicot rh city, GGH part time, and blue lavande rh city. i think once there are pics of the other colors up on ioffer (like how there are now of mandarin in different styles), that's when they'll start shipping out.

 

[shelleybean]

Aww man! I didn't think I wanted anything from this batch of colours, but now I need a Mandarin RH Day. Amethyst, how could you? The leather looks quite silky and the CP is adorable.
On another note, I have two bags from Fang waiting for me at home. (Speedy 35 & Delightful MM) They've been delivered to the Post office and I will hopefully be able to pick them up tomorrow or Friday. Happy weekend to me!

Also to add: a friend of mine is looking for a Damier Cabas Rivington tote. I rarely pay attention to totes as they're not really my style but it's possible it may not have been repped yet. If anyone has seen any from the usual sellers, please let me know.

Did you ask Fang if she can get the Cabas Rivington? I know she didn't have a Bloomsbury up on her site but I asked her for it and she got it for me for a friend. I have a Delightful GM from Fang and it's truly 1:1 quality. Love it

Hey Amethyst! the colour is such a sweet one, makes me wanna go to the kitchen and pick up an orange...i was not thinking about this colour...but you changed my mind ...now i dont know what to do...coquelicot...papyrus....aggh..so many gorgeous colours
CONGRATS FOR THE LOVELY BAGS!

 

[ZenEssence]

Has anyone ever found a near perfect monogram Galliera GM?

 

[shoptfs]

amethyst, your mandarin looks delish. and the leather looks thick and chewy too!!! I guess T&D has really perfected the craft of making bbags..

 

[purplelilies]

Does anyone know who does good Chloe Marcies? Jacky's sold out his medium marcies and is not making anymore, and Catty's just doesn't cut it. Please PM me if you know of any sellers.

 

[purplelilies]

Has anyone heard of Helen-replica-shop? They seem to have everything Jacky has, had and more. I can't tell if it's a copy cat or if they're two sellers with the same factory/ supplier.

 

[Ilovebags]

OOoOO. I would LOVE to see the new RGGH hardware.

How did you ship it? were there any other cheaper shipping costs?

I shipped express international bc that was the only option that had tracking. I really hope the hardware looks authentic. Ill def post pics when i get it back.

Also, i asked for a picture of the new papyrus w rggh and the color is off-the first pic is from tpf and the second is from t&d. The hardware and the color are both off, no?

 

[Melanie87]

THE PIC FROM THE BOYS SEEMS MORE PINKISH...the pic from tfs is with no particular tone...maybe its only me, but i also think the papyrus is a little off if you compare it with the original...however depends also on the light that th eperson took the photo of the authentic....
the hardware also seems to me a little off, but if u look at the photo of the black rggh from the ioffer site the hardware seems okay...duno!! i wont buy any bag from the new colours until i see a pic....

 

[thesiren]

...that's it? Two bags and a clutch is too much to pack? I guess I'm no help then, I take at least four bags and two clutches when I travel. Can't you pack the clutch inside the city and the city inside the work? I've found bals pack quite well inside one another if space becomes an issue...

SAME HERE!

<3 bals because they are a breeze to travel with.

coco - bummer to hear about your speedy b 30 from fang. ame's was TDF.

obviously we all know bags vary batch to batch, factory to factory, supplier to supplier, but i have been quite pleased with my mono pieces from jacky. we have owned a speedy 25/30, a batignolles horizontal and various accessories. i have never had one that was a blatant fake or didn't patina. zippers have always been good too. these have all been compared to various auth mono bags my mom has acquired over the past 30 years. i have been wanting to order a palermo MM from jacky. i think i am ordering a WOC from him too because every time i am at chanel i am stunned by how ordinary they look. they are adorable, but they NEVER look as though they warrant the astronomical price tag.

pink - thanks for the picture of your jacky speedy b 30!

ame - the mandarin looks DELISH!

How about Joy? I saw pictures of Joy's camel Marcie on another forum and the leather looked great. I have Jackie's camel Marcie and somehow, although it's ok, the bag didn't have the sumptious feel...am I making sense?
