Anyone order from Monnier Freres before? Legit?

[Moxisox]

Good afternoon Coachies! I am looking for a specific Parker 18 in the sand taupe with nickel hardware. The only place I’ve been able to find it is from Monnier Freres. I’ve never heard of them before ( I am in the USA). Was wondering what people’s experiences were with them. Is it legit? thanks

I have a purse coming from them that I bought thru Farfetch (which I've bought a few bags from), so I'm guessing they're legit. It has been 8 days since i bought the bag, and it still hasn't shipped, but I'm guessing that's because of the virus. They had the Tabby 26 in chalk for 269 with shipping - I couldn't pass it up!

Weird! I don't get that message (and I have a full suite of protection), and they even participate in Rakuten, so it has to be a legit site.

Thank you for sharing. Please let me know what happens. I reached out to my SA and he said the particular bag I’m wanting was only made for the international market so he can’t order it for me. I would love it, but am trying to do my due diligence first to make sure it’s a safe place to purchase from.

Interesting. Thank you for sharing.

What is Rakuten? I think I may have vaguely heard of it, but not 100% sure what it is. Thanks
EDITED: I just looked it up. .

I got my order today from Monnier Freres via Farfetch! It's perfect! Definitely would buy from them again. It came completely wrapped and with a dust bag. (Sorry for the bad pics - it's late!)

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it! That chalk color looks so lovely on the Tabby!!

Here it is! I love it. Can’t believe how fast it came since it shipped from Paris. Thanks again for sharing your purchase. I probably wouldn’t have ordered it if you hadn’t shared.

Ooh I like the silver! It looked overly shiny in all the photos I've seen. Gorgeous bag - enjoy!

Thanks to this thread, I ended up ordering an item from both Farfetch & Monnier Freres. One arrives today & the other tomorrow (super fast shipping). To my knowledge, neither item I ordered were readily available on any US sites (Coach, dept stores, etc) so thank you! I'll post photos when the both arrive.

Here's the first one...my first belt bag. I know I'd only wear something like this during the warmer months & I loved the color combo. My phone, Galaxy S8+, does fit in the back zip but it can't then zip closed. Not a dealbreaker. That said, the main opening is hard to get into so I have to check it out more & then decide. Shipping was super fast, constant status updates & packed very well. Even if I don't keep this, I'd definitely order from them again.
2nd purchase should arrive today.
