Help with color on Marcie Muted Brown or Blush Nude

Like others here, I too have the Marcie in blush (large) and it still looks new. I am fairly careful with it but the Marcie leather holds up amazingly well! For 5+ years, I have used 3 in large and 2 in medium (which they now call small, I believe?) and all are still in pristine like new condition except for the large in black which the handle came unstitched on one side. It’s fair - I load it up and use it the most. Looking for a good repair place in Seattle area (if anyone has recommendations!) who will restore it to new. Also have a large Marcie bag in Nut, which is a Taupe-ish brown. Not a huge fan of this shade - it seems muted. I would prefer a British Tan shade with more warmth. Overall - you can’t go wrong with this bag. It’s gorgeous, incredibly well made, and always a joy to carry.

Nordstrom Notes for big purchases

View attachment 5597927Used my saved notes to buy my Noé BB. It was like getting 30% off. :love:Some were going to expire soon. I was worried about a possible LV price increase too. I was given the name of a wonderful SA at the Seattle store by another TPF member, @chilipepper_96.
@chilipepper_96 hi. Would you mind sharing your SA contact?

Honey Leather on top of Apple Conditioner?

Hi all,

I moisturized my 2007 Black City today for the first time ever and I used Apple Leather Conditioner. I used a lot of product, not too too much, but definitely a liberal amount. The leather was restored immediately and regained moisture and and that buttery texture and its even smooshier than before lol.

However, even though the leather has drastically improved, I was thinking of applying Honey Leather just to make the black look more.... Black. Its more of a dark dark gray right now due to age, bordering on black but just slightly faded.

Is it safe to use Leather Honey right away even though I just applied Apple Conditioner today? Or how many days/weeks do I have to wait?

Thanks in advance
If it was me I'd wait long enough to be sure that the Apple conditioner has completely dried. I don't know if you've used Leather Honey before but use it sparingly.

Glazing on new 6 key holder in mono

I would have asked for a replacement for that since it's only been two months. I had a wallet in 2010 (Brazza) that had glazing issues almost immediately and I allowed them to send it off for repair, instead of demanding a replacement. Within weeks of receiving the repaired item back, it happened again in the same spot. I then had to argue with the management that it was defective, they tried to blame me and said that it must have been overstuffed (which it never was - I have several SLGs to carry additional cards and never even once carried coins in my wallet) and it almost put me off the brand altogether. I eventually got a refund and bought a different style of wallet (original Zippy Compact) which I've been using since 2011 and it has never required re-glazing or repair.

I think it's just your luck re. quality. I wouldn't say that the quality now, in terms of quickly requiring new glazing, is significantly lesser than it was ten years ago. As I said, I had issues almost right away with the wallet I purchased from LV in 2010 but I've had SLGs (and bags) in more recent years that have been absolutely fine.

Keep an eye on this and when you do have it re-glazed, keep an even closer eye. I wouldn't leave it too long to have it done, because you run the risk that they'll then try to charge you for it. If it happens again I would demand a refund or an exchange for a different item. Good luck!
Thank you, I really appreciate your past experience... I did leave the store unsatisfied with their answer. I also sent pics to two SAs I know who both said it's considered regular wear but that LV will do one complimentary repair. But of course, SAs won't admit in writing that there is a defect...
I think I will go to our flagship store in Toronto and see if I can get a replacement. if they even have this item in stock :sad:

Help Identifying Purses

Hi there! My mother gave me two Coach purses that she said are legitimate, and wanted me to try and sell them on eBay as they are brand new. The only issue is I know nothing about them whatsoever. I took a picture and posted it below. Does anyone have any idea what they may be, or need any other photos/details in order to help? Thank you so much for your time and help!

You've already posted in another thread and have just been directed to post in the correct thread and forum to confirm that they're authentic. Please follow those directions and wait for an answer. Thank you.

Buy a Chanel and get over it.

Oh.. I don’t live in northern Cali. ( though I’ve visited a few times)I was trying to quote and reply to that part of the original post. Sorry about the confusion.

I plan on passing my bags down to my daughters as well. My 14 year old doesn’t understand why I think that one day she will want my used bags! Hahaha....I’m sure she’ll be happy when she gets my vintage bags and doesn’t have to spend her har earned money on some of these classics!

Chanel woc - help please gold or silver ?

@sisterhood,based on the previous poster’s info Because of the size it sounds hard wearing enough to wear on a regular basis, fancy event or not. The original poster was wearing a casual outfit when trying on her WOCs and I think they looked great.

Thank you so much for replying! Yes you are so right. I guess I will go for it and of course will be on waiting list ;) I’m new to this forum and I love it

Baby Blue!

Thank you I am pondering between Bleu Lin and Celeste thus wonder if Gris Antarctique is also the light blue-grey I am after.
It is a beautiful blue-grey (than grey-blue)! I think they should rename Gris Antarctique to Bleu Antarctique as it has more blue than grey! Would go well with any Bleu Lin (or even Bleu Glacier - which has more grey than blue, I think)!

Purchased a Fake Céline Classic Box from a Legitimate Business

Hi, she's an acquaintance that I was able to text with so she replied back fast! She sources on the side but if she doesn't work out, there's an amazing thread with list of personal shoppers on purseforum.
Thanks JJJ. So scared to shop with anyone not recommended by anyone else after already being burned once. Will wait time hear from Jane and hope she sees my Instagram message (using my husbands IG because I don’t have one!) and replies soon. Thank you for the recommendation x
