I can't remember who it was that had the problem with the lining turning her wallet red, but I wanted to say that it is happening to me too! I called the LV boutique that I purchased it from and they are going to look into it and get back to me but since it is still within my return/exchange period I can bring it back. I went back and forth between the Damier and the Mono, decided on the Damier because of the ease without the vachetta, but now I am thinking that I should exchange it for the mono if the red lining is going to color my stuff !
