After patiently waiting for five weeks, I finally got it back!

To my surprise, they’ve replaced the entire pocket to a new one. It now has a zipper, lol. This is not what I’ve requested and I kind of miss the old Louis Vuitton logo on the pocket from the old model, but I’m not fussed about it. The bag now looks completely new and I love it.

I spent $680 Canadian dollars for the repair. I got it from my sister-in-law as a gift nine years ago, it was only around $800 back then!

Anyway, I love Neverfull and glad I got my work horse bag back!

Beautiful! LV’s repair services are unmatched! However, the pocket dilemma is truly upsetting :annoyed: the cursive is why I cherish mine. They both have zippers though.

Thanks! I know, I wasn’t expecting them to change the interior leather. All I asked was a trim, handles and the two straps for cinching. Stripes on the new pocket is slightly darker than the original too, though I’m okay with it.

This is a made in France bag and I’m glad the replaced leather at the zipper area still shows it’s MIF.

Did you happened to take a "before" picture? I would love to see the before and after transformation!

I didn’t take any before pic but this is from last year. It’s hard to see from this photo but the trim has darkened quite a bit and so as the handles. The trim leather got too dry after me trying to clean it too much. When I first got the bag, I didn’t know how to handle vachetta well, so lots of spots from rain.

Patina champ method is working quite well with my Neverfull Azur, so I will do the same with my newly repaired mono Neverfull.

Yes, mine used to look like that! My Neverfull is from 2011, I think.

Yeah it would have. I actually got mines around May/June 2008 when they launched. I can only recall the date because my sister got married that year and j went to get a bag for the wedding and picked that up at the same time. Was a hell of a lot cheaper than today that’s for sure. It’s increased by 306%

Yeah, they increase the price significantly when they added a pouch. I have a pouch for my Azur Neverfull that I bought a year ago but hardly use it.
