I was in Ft. Lauderdale at the Hard Rock casino...outside at one of the bars...I had my Manhattan (the big one, I can remember if it the pm or what) anyway...this bartender was siad to me..what a great bag! Its a really good fake!! (WHAT??) I laughed and said honey it the real deal, she was very embarrassed and then followed up with the fact that most of her friends carried fakes and just assumed everyone did. She asked to see it, so as I picked it up I wanted to get my phone out of the front pocket, and the damn gold lock part fell off in my hand!!!! LOL LOL I was mortified. The perfect ending to this story is when I woke up the next morning I went to LV to have it shipped to repairs and as I did not have another bag to put all my things in I snagged the Mizi!! That is the ONLY time I have ever had any problems with any bag. I have since sold both.
any louis vuitton horror stories?

Oh my goodness, I would have been mortified esp when that woman asked if it's real and then the lock falls off.
I'm so glad you got the Mizi to make you feel better!
No. It's not very visible, and she's unhappy about it. I'm not sure if she ever took it to LV and asked. She mentioned it, but I think she was too ashamed to tell a SA that she had been so careless with her bag!
I also forgot to add about how 3 of my fleurs on my pap turned blue after exposing it to my blue shirt. That sucked! Made a big deal about it on pf, and thankfully removed the blue tinge from Ayla (thanks to hairspray). Now, I keep all my bags in a separate compartment (far away from my clothes...).
I was shopping for a kitty and my dh decided to look at a golden labador retriever last month. The puppy took a liking to my josephine as a chew toy and threw it everywhere with all my contents flying out my bag. Which now has chewy doggy teeth marks... Oh well... It's still only a bag...:s 
my car broke down in REALLY REALLY heavy rain I had to get out of the car to find a landmark for the guy to come and pick me up, I dropped my credit card wallet in a great big dirty puddle, it sat there for about half an hour before I realised. Then I had to get on my hands & knees in the rain looking in the great dirty puddle when I fished it out it was very soggy & the edges had curled up.
I let it dry out and sit with a heavy book on it for a couple of days and it came out fine, just shows that they really are quality

this is pretty minor but I just noticed the other day that 2 screws are missing from the underside of the clasp on my CB pap, I've only used it a few times and the screws aren't in the bag anywhere - so I don't know what the hell happened there.
Used to drop/plop my petit noe anywhere and everywhere, including toilet floors ( yuck)...the vachetta was NASTY!! I am too ashamed to post a picture here. That was my first LV bag, I didn't know anything
I feel your pain, I have the large noe in that condition! vachetta should come with a warning, why do you have to wreck a bag to learn?
Ugh! After I read through this thread a lunch and logged off, I turned to answer my phone and spilled a 20 oz bottle of diet coke all over my Onatah Cuir GM. My co-workers thought it was hilarious to see me make a mad dash down the hall (purse in hand), through the lobby, and down another hall to the kitchen desperately looking through cabinet doors for paper towels. Everything is okay. The soda wiped right off. Whew! I'm glad I didn't have a bag with vachetta today.
This is not about a bag but here it goes:
I was having dinner with a guy friend at a restaurant and I had to bring my little brother along. Well, about halfway through our meal, my little brother spills his entire cup of coke. It went everywhere and also happened to land on my friend's LV leather jacket. The front of the jacket had been completely stained. We tried to whipe some of the coke off but it was no help.
