Is there trouble with The RealReal shipping?

Anyone had a problem with shipping lately?
I ordered a Chanel bag last Friday (6 Calendar days ago) and it is still not shipped.
Contacted customer service yesterday and they said they would reach out to their shipping partner and let me know something in 48 hours.
I’ve been purchasing items from The RealReal since 2019 and this is never happened to me before. I am worried that the bag is lost and I won’t get it. i’m hoping they just have gotten behind for some reason.

In love with my CF

Just wanted to share my recent purchase (the beige one). The Classic Flap is the most beautiful bag ever created in my opinion. What do you think I should add next? I’ve been thinking about a mini but I’m worried about the lambskin.

Does anyone own any of these bags?

I’m eyeing a few pieces and would love to hear some feedback if anyone here has managed to score one yet! I’m particularly interested in 9, 2, 5, 6, and 7 (roughly in that order of preference). If you own any of them, how are you liking it so far? Would love to hear your thoughts, pros/cons. Thanks in advance! ❤️

The ship is called Brilliant Lady by Virgin Voyages. Brilliant idea indeed.

The Chanel bag + charm combo I’ve been daydreaming about is finally mine✨✨

Took me forever to decide, but this is easily my favorite purchase this year. The classic caviar leather and turnlock are timeless, and the custom charm I picked up to match it is such a fun personal touch. I’ve been wearing it nonstop ever since, and I can’t stop staring at it 😍

Help me find this bag

Hello! I saw this bag on a video and I need it :( Unfortunately I do not live in London or anywhere in Europe at the moment to go to this sale. Would anyone tell me what model this is that way I can try to research buying it on my own? Thanks!

Need advice

I purchased this bag and matching wallet around 2011. i’ve carried it exactly 2 times so I’m thinking of selling them. Absolutely beautiful but i’m older now and not my style anymore. Purchased at Chanel Boutique in Boca Raton, FL and in original box.

Where would be the best place to sell?

What happens when luxury brands cannot control the narrative on social media?

Business of Fashion examines what happens when the social media clients consume is not paid for by the respective House, but rather by the client at the bottom.

Hype vs Reality

Emily Erkel posted the following slides on Instagram. While there has been much social media hype around Blazy’s debut, do the sales actually match? In some recent posts, avid Chanel shoppers have mentioned empty boutiques and plenty of products readily available, specifically ready to wear. I will leave my opinions to the comment section, but I think this an interesting conversation for us.

HELP ME LOVE WOC

So.. I bought a used WOC caviar in excellent condition made in 2017. It’s my first Chanel. Even tho I knew the size, when I received it it’s just so small… I mean yes my iPhone fits in it and yes there are compartments for everything, but I’m so used to having a separate wallet inside my purse — and space for sunglasses …

I can return it because I’ve not removed the tags. But I’m

On the fence… I love the color, the fact I can wear it cross body which is my preference… and that it is in excellent condition for less than $3K AND has gold tone hardware…

Anyone have any tips on how I can adjust to this more minimal size or should I just return it? Also, for those who have a woc, do you use it regularly or is it an evening or event occasion bag?

Medium Blazy flap?

This was my first time seeing the ‘Blazy flap’ in a smaller size. I only saw them in Maxi size before. The dimensions are similar to a medium CF. I took her home with me :)

Chanel Diana small eBay discrepancies

I purchased a good condition small Chanel Diana bag from the 22 series (ie 1991-1994), and the photo of the item had even a Chanel box with the sticker. But I’ve just noticed that the serial number inside the bag and the bag label are not matching at all. The serial numbers are different. And the box has a code that is referred as a medium classic flap. The Diana bag is a small and single flap as you know. I’m concerned and submitted a return request to eBay. Am I making too big of a deal?! Should I try to get Zeko verified?

Best small bag under $6k in Paris

Hi! I’m visiting Paris and looking to buy my first luxury bag here.

I don’t know much about what I can get for under $6,000 USD. My preferences are: black, preferably a top handle (though I understand that might not be possible within my budget). A friend told me that caviar leather is the best option in terms of durability and quality.

While I’ve been in Europe, I’ve seen so many small, cute bags that I think are classified as small leather goods. I’d love any suggestions on bags that would fit my criteria.

Thank you in advance!

Which cosmetics do you buy and why?

I just saw the price of the refillable lipstick and it seems to be twice of Dior’s? I don’t get the difference. Please enlighten. I’m looking at cosmetics only. Perfume is a different topic and I’ve no issues getting them. I couldn’t get the latest raffia limited edition although the colors included do look pretty.

Just wondering what makes Chanel cosmetics superior or worth the price tag? I only see bags and shoes in this sub so far to be honest.
