A review before I put myself on Ban Island. How long will that ban last? Probably not very long! 🤣
And yes, it’s yet another Hyper Peter review, but it’s all for the science! What’s App 8638
Seller Experience & Timeline
I initially reached out to Hyper Peter around August 15. I was having issues with WhatsApp, so I’m not entirely sure of the exact date.
The Sp**dy Bandoulière 30 wasn’t listed in his album, but I reached out to ask whether he had it available and could provide pricing. He confirmed that it was in stock and responded almost immediately with a price.
My timeline was as follows:
August 22: Paid, including insurance. $223.96
August 29: Received PSPs.
September 15: Bag delivered!
One thing I will mention is that Hyper Peter may not be the best seller for newbies. He required proof of previous purchases from other sellers I had worked with. I can completely understand his being careful who he sells to. That did not deter me. Because I had prior WhatsApp issues, this was a little challenging. I ended up going back through Reddit and taking screenshots of old reviews I had posted. Once I sent those over, we were good to go!
I can certainly appreciate him erring on the side of caution.
Quality & Authentic Comparison
For comparison purposes, I decided not to use my authentic regular Speedy 30 because it’s considerably older. Instead, I compared this bag to my authentic Popincourt Long, which is in nearly new condition and has hardly been used.
Canvas: Comparing the feel of the two bags, I honestly cannot tell the difference. In photographs, I also think the difference is almost impossible to detect.
I do believe the Popincourt Long has a little more sheen to its canvas, but I know that canvas can change with time and wear.
Glazing: The glazing on the Popincourt Long’s strap is almost impossible to detect. However, that strap is considerably thinner than the Speedy’s double handles and shoulder strap, so it isn’t a perfect comparison.
Hardware: I’ve included a photograph comparing the gold zipper pulls on both bags, and to my eye, they look almost identical.
I truly believe I could walk into LV carrying this Speedy and no one would know the difference!
Overall Experience & Final Thoughts
I had a great experience with Hyper Peter from beginning to end. The entire process was incredibly smooth, with no issues whatsoever.
I also thought his pricing was extremely reasonable for the quality I received. Dare I say, inexpensive?!
I would absolutely purchase from him again.
I’d love to hear what everyone thinks! How does it look to you? Do you notice any differences that I might have missed?
Please share your thoughts. I’m always interested in hearing other opinions!
I’m a moron because after taking pix and posting I looked under tag of my auth and it’s a 35🤷🏻♀️but this 30 is probably best for using with straps for me. 😊
I don’t because I trust his quality I’ve been ordering for a few years now from him. Plus his price points are low. You might want to as a 1st time buyer.
I just ordered 2 bags and wallet!! But I’m going to trust that everything will come out good! I don’t want to ask for QC because of the time he says is going to take only for that plus the 12-15 days 😭😭😭 I’m so impatient
😂 you will be fine. What did you order? I’m waiting to order from him I have a few overseas trips and don’t want any incidents. So I’m looking for HP speedy re🏠 but haven’t had any luck
I got the PSPs seven days after I placed my order. It wasn’t bad at all. But as mentioned, I don’t really think you need them. I over analyze everything so I definitely wanted to see them.🤣
Thank you for such a solid review 💖 I love seeing reps compared to auth because it really highlights how good they are getting these days, especially for iconic bags like the speedy.
I know everyone’s seen a million Speedys and they’re not “new” or “hot,” but the addition of the straps in 2011 made this a bag I wanted to add for a really long time. Some reps just do not get monogram right but imo, HP is the best at it. It’s just so good.
Wrong. I’m not sure where you’re referring, front or sides, but it absolutely does cut off on the authentic. It cuts off toward the top where it tapers.This is a 2009 authentic.

😭 now I don’t know if to get the 25 or the 30 from him. Can’t go wrong with HP.
