The Chanel 25 in perforated skin is not an easy bag to find. It had already taken this client almost three months of scouring the internet and reaching out to personal shopping services across the globe before she found WeCarryBags through an Instagram hashtag. Within hours of sending a DM, she had a response. A short time after that, the bag was sourced and secured for the client.

Speak With Our Personal Shopping Team

The Sourcing Challenge

Before reaching WeCarryBags, the client had contacted personal shoppers across London, the United States, Canada, Kuwait, and the wider Middle East. Each attempt ran into the same problems: pricing issues, unresponsive communication, payment complications from Pakistan, or sourcing delays that went nowhere.

As she put it: "Either the price was too expensive or there were some hurdles as to payment plans that I was not able to make at the time. It was either done through PayPal or some other restriction that was very difficult for me to make through Pakistan."

The Chanel 25 perforated skin requires the right contacts to find quickly. It's not a bag sitting in a display case. Finding the right version, in the right condition, at a fair price, with a service capable of handling international delivery to Pakistan, is a different problem from simply knowing the bag exists.

She found WeCarryBags on Instagram after searching hashtags related to the specific bag and reached out to us via direct message, beginning her personal shopping journey with WeCarryBags.

What Happened Next

The reply came within hours. Warm, professional, and direct. Contact moved from Instagram DM to WhatsApp, where she worked with Sophie and the WeCarryBags team throughout the process.

"The process was so smooth, and it was so instant, and the client services were unparalleled. I have yet to come across a personal shopper that not only replies in a timely manner, but also communicates with so much ease."

The team sourced the Chanel 25 perforated skin and quoted the client. When she mentioned she had been offered the bag elsewhere at a lower price, WeCarryBags matched it and reduced the shipping fees. The bag was originally quoted at £6,200. The final price came in better than she had anticipated.

How We Dealt With Unforeseen Complications

Geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East created shipping disruptions during the sourcing process. Rather than leaving the client to manage the situation, WeCarryBags offered to hold the bag in storage for as long as needed, until alternative delivery could be arranged, or the client could travel to collect it personally. The initial delivery charges to Pakistan were waived entirely as a result.

"Not only did they offer to keep my bag in storage for as many months or weeks as I could come personally to the UK to collect it, but they also waived the delivery charges to Pakistan."

These are the moments where a relationship-based sourcing service proves its value. Anyone can find a bag when everything runs smoothly. Knowing how to handle complications without passing the problem back to the client is a different thing altogether.

More Than Just A Bag

What struck the client most by the end of the process was the range of services that WeCarryBags can cover.

"Not only have you helped me procure this bag, you have opened me to a world of goodness in terms of personal shopping, and this is not just limited to clothes or bags or shoes."

The client mentioned her husband's golf equipment. She spoke about building a house in Pakistan and the challenge of sourcing lamps, lights, fixtures, and electrical equipment. The realisation that a trusted sourcing relationship could extend across all of that changed the picture entirely.

That's how many of the best client relationships at WeCarryBags develop. They start with a specific piece and grow from there as trust builds. TheWeCarryBags team is based in the UK and works with clients across Pakistan, the Gulf region, India, and globally.
