Okay everyone..
Here is a follow-up of this thread..
I finally made it to the LV store today as I had been extremely busy since the past 1 month (the SA i spoke to last time was aware that I am busy and had told me to bring the bag to the store when I have the time..)
I really love this bag and had been telling myself maybe I can just live with the stickiness by avoiding carrying it in the hot weather as much as I could.
Recently I received a call if I'm still interested in the vernis cosmestic case which I had waitlist. So I told them I would collect it today.
Before I went to the store, I was contemplating if I should bring in my Sac Rayures at the same time or as I've mentioned earlier..just live with the stickiness. So I decided to examine the extend of the stickiness again...and guess what..I noticed one part of handle where the 2 leathers are joined together showing sign that they are going to split! (because the glue is melting..)
Do take note that the stickiness happened just after I carried this bag for the first time. And since then, I have carried it for another 3 occasions(including today).
Anyway, I thought they are just going to have a look at the bag. Really didn't expect that they'll keep my bag so I wasn't mentally prepared at all.
I was given a receipt stating "repair" but my SA told me they are not going to send it for repair. Instead, they are going to take some photos and write a report which will be submit to Hong Kong, which will then submit it to Paris (don't ask me why through Hong Long first cos I really have no idea..I was too tired to ask for details). From there, they'll see if there had been any similar report elsewhere..
To be honest, I am really worry of my bag. I think I will call my SA tomorrow to let her know if in any case they decide to do any repair job on my bag, to notify me first before they do it.
My past bad experience sending bag in for repair (it was Chanel not LV) really scares me off sending another bag for repair. And of course I have also heard some bad experience from TPF member here who had her bag sent for repair with LV..
For the moment, I can only pray that whoever who will be handling my beloved bag would handle it with care..
