I always worried the epi would chip, I have read that a few times... I am thinking of getting a red epi agenda in a larger size just so I have something from that line....

I didn't realise the epi 30 was bigger either?

I think it's due to the structured nature of the epi material that makes the speedy bigger than the monogram or damier.

I have the black epi speedy 30 with gold hardware and the matching keepall 45 and I adore them both. The epi is such a classy material!

It surely is elegant and classy but I do not care much for black purses. When I need to wear black I wear my Plum Suhali and goes so well or I wear a red bag. Of course that has its complications when you really really need a black purse!!

Hi everyone - I wondered of anyone knew if there are any plans for a speedy 30 in epi grenade? I've been obsessing about this bag since about september and as far as I know it's only out in a 25 and no plans for a 30 to my knowledge. I just read above that they epi line seem bigger so do I do I go with 25 or hold out for my prefered size?????? Arrgh!!! Thank you! :)

Paije, I didn't know that either, I thought they would be the same size!

Good to know if you are ordering!

Everyone needs a black purse, and this is perfect....I just didn't like the "hard" leather when I visited LV.. but I think this is a beautiful purse to have...

Oooo I like the pockets on the side.

I love the epi speedy but am concerned about the "wrinkling" that is so evident on many of the ones that look authentic, and show up on Ebay!

It may be due to the material and structure but they are bigger than the mono. I had an Epi Speedy 25 and it was a tad larger than the regular mono which I liked because I think the 25 looks too girlish on me. About the marks I think this probably was more apparent on the old epi. I also have the Perfo Speedy which is 30 and it is also a tad larger.

In the current years, I would say more than 5 there is a new epi that is softer than the older one and those creases are not as bad.

M Butterfly, I had a mono. 25 and it was def. too small! Want an epi 30. Am glad they have improved the leather because I don't like the look of all the creases that often appear!

They have but at the same time some people complaint about loosing some of the structure of it and some of the colors changed like the red. My recommendation is to take a look at the store one of this days even if you get a good deal on ebay at a latter time.

While I guess some people get good deals on Ebay, I am petrified to buy because of all the horror stories I have heard! I love to look at the older bags there to see how they wear with time! It's a great resoarse!
