Pinkpricess113 the black with rggh is beautiful. I agree, if T&D can make the black with leather like that, it will be a sure winner.

I will be in HK middle of August and have asked Jacky to drop off some hardware (the faceplate for my mulberry bay). Any girls from this part of the world need any small items from him which don't warrant the postage fee? I'll be happy to help.

T&D said that they could do the Anthracite if there were 50 girls who wanted it. Here is what they said.

If you'd like to do Anthracite or any other color and you got 50 girls each
color then the cost would $82.00. This cover the cost of the minimum order
quantity of zips that have to purchased.

Wow, that means those who wants anthra will have to fork out additional $41 more than the black?

 

[carta]

for now, i'm not committing to black with rggh. although, i may change my mind when i see pics of the actual bags... and reviews on here. i'd love one in anthra, but that'd put the price over $300... it's a bit steep. but, like i said... we'll see. IRL pics always get to me.

bisoubis: YEs it is very expensive and I am not even sure that we have fifty ladies on this forum who even want anthracite.

That is pretty steep for RGGH in Anthra. Thought enticing (RGGH, gold content et al) I'd rather put the money into a new bag in another shade of colour. That's unfortunate, I was looking forward to getting something in RGGH and black is not what I'm looking for. I'm now having hopes on the Folk; thanks coco for sending your bag over.

Leather looks great LadyRed! And hey I have the same exact dress!

Crystal that sucks so much!!! Do you have pics?! I'm soooo nervous now, sorbet was my HG color too.. I really hope the leather isn't dry. You must have gotten a bad apple since everyone else loves their sorbet!!! Do you think T&D will credit you so you can buy another?

PinkPrincess-I don't think I will mention it to T&D as I already gave it a coat of pink shoe polish, it looks somewhat better already, I think I will give it another coat in a couple of days then after it completely dries I will use some apple conditioner on it fingers X'd that it will turn out nicely

on another note I would like anthacite with RGGH that is my first choice for sure, if not I will take a black with RGGH if the leather is nice and smooth

 

[amethyst_sparkle]

sigh. rose gold or no rose gold, i'm in love with bois de rose in any hardware. i may get it in every style t&d make...
velo, first, city, weekender...omgggggg pic from ebay.

Eh, I'm a bit confused. Since T&D are not doing Bois De Rose with RGGH at the moment, will they be making it with GSH or RH? Thanks.

Xooey They will keep on doing GSH & GGH.

Latest news from T&D since the extra 80$ (except Black 40$) and 50 girls for RGGH seems to much they are now trying another solution :

"We have a friend in Italy that is a big client with this zip factory. He is seeing if we can reduce the minimum order quantity so we offer more floors.
I will be in touch as soon as we know.
He told us it will be next week some time."

Let's keep our fingers crossed...

Don't get one from Cathy! I bought an oversize one from her a while back, maybe 3 months, but the proportions are all wrong, it's too wide by maybe 2 inches and it makes a huge difference. I've a black os alexa from Jacky and it beautiful I've just ordered an oak os too, hoping that'll be gorgeous

The only problem with jacky is that he(she?) doesn't accept paypal....

 

[Cherish]

He does take paypal if it's a smaller order and you ask very nicely. I have nothing but good things to say about Jacky - he responds very fast (though he is a bit short) and is very pleasant.

 

[Chupi]

Yep, I second what cherish said. I just bought two bags from him, paid paypal (it's an extra 7%) and bags due here soon!

On the RGGH scandal, I'm following closely! Fingers crossed

 

[missaudrey]

Scandal? ...what scandal? Love it! LOL!
BTW the 4 in 1 arrived today & i have been matifying every NBF in sight & a B&S to boot..... AMAZING! Waterproofing,moisturising, matiyfing {cant spell, tonite?} & cleaning.

 

[eskielvr]

You re welcome chicadee Folk is such a cute bag, I love it too, I'm getting one
bbs, glad I help darl. I looooove J's Nude Alexa, Its gorgeous.My turnlock can move side to side too, dont know if its normal
I just got email from T&D about Bois de rose RGGH
I dont want black...

Mm and bbs, my turn lock wobbles from side to side too but i still adore the bag!!

I wish the boys were able to do anthra with rggh but even then a $41 increase is steep!

 

[PinkPrincess113]

i agree bois de rose is beautiful. it's one of those colors i would want a giant GSH first in.. amethyst sparkle it looks like me and you are on that list again haha! time to gather more people.. i think last time T&D said we need 6 girls to run a GSH first

i think i'll take a RGGH black city from T&D

I have 2009 Anthracite from T&D. It has a little blue tone in there. If T&D will ever make Anthracite RGGH, it should reflect 2010 Anthracite which is deep gray without blue hue.

And, I am still waiting for my Galet PT. T&D has toldl me three weeks ago the bag will be shipped. But it is still on their "quality control table" when I asked them one week ago.

 

[Pursefreak]

Girls,
I am new to TFS. But I have made several purchases from Jacky, 7 total.
I am looking to buy from Catty. It is CH-331 Metallic Flap. Has any of you bought this before. I asked for additional pictures and she sent these. The only thing I am concerned with is that the back pocket seems to be a little bit small. What do you guys think? Should I go for it? By the way, I haven't figured out how to upload pics yet. So, I did the attachments.
TIA

shopholic-I am totally with you on the Anthracite color being a dark gray this time around (no blue or green undertones please) I also have a 09 anthra work and it looks dark blue to me

Has anyone ever bought Hermes accessories from Jacky? Are they any good? I'm thinking of getting Hermes' Collier de Chien bracelets from him, but am not sure of the quality. So far, I've only always purchased various bags from him. Thanks!
