Default How much does new leather work cost?

Hi, It might be posted before but I was wondering how much would LV charge for a new leather put it onto purse.
I just need price range because I know the price varies with style.

Thanks

If you want to replace all the leather on a bag, it will cost around 2/3s the price of the bag as they have to take it apart to do it.

It would be best if you called the LV store directly to ask your question. They have a price list for repairs and also they would need to see your bag to determine if they can fix it/replace the vachetta.

I agree with peace43, go to the store because, I went to Bloomingdales and they have a LV store in there and was told that it would cost me $90 to replace my MM looping strap, I then went to a LV store just two blocks from Bloomingdales and was quoted $78 and 6-8 weeks to repair.

The cost is different with all bags, under all conditions. There is no "range". In fact if you take it to an LV store, even they wont know how much it will cost until you ship it away. Sorry I know its a dissapointing answer, but it's the truth.

As a FYI, I got the inside lining of a bucket replaced. It cost me $49. For some TPFers here it cost over $100. All depends on the bag itself.
