I really like the look of this bag/clutch, and that they included a sketch of what the inside looks like!
I am eager to get it and check out the quality. I found online postings by people who have been in the shop and they say the quality is good. THe only complaint I have is the shipping from France was ridiculous! 61 euros!!! I have never paid more than 25 euros for shipping.
 
I would hope they’re using UPS or something similar, and not the post office. Marco charges about 50 euros for UPS I think, and he told me that is less than the actual cost to him. So expensive!

I think if you ship worldwide and get a company deal, they give you great deals, you need to have a minimum though, I was thinking of using DHL to send something privately and was shocked, the service was more than twice a company rate
 
It is probably DHL which is the absolute best international shipping IMO. They are fast and keep you posted every step of the way.

Tbh having a real problem with DHL atm, sold something with VC and all of a sudden tracking stopped, (mid December) VC tells me to talk to DHL, DHL says the label was issued by VC they need to contact them, not blaming DHL, things can go wrong but if it is through a 3rd party it can make things more complicated

Murphy’s Law. The minute I comment on my good experiences with DHL, someone has a horror story. Never fails.

Actually not so much about DHL, I mean things can go wrong especially since it goes through so many hands, I totally get it that they want to talk to their client who issued the label, which is VC, more a problem with VC not doing so and handing out the wrong info

Absolutely. If you stop and consider the complexity of buying, selling, shipping, mail service, weather, handler error, etc., etc., it is a miracle we don’t have more snafus. I hope you get it straightened out soon!!!!

I hope so too, it's a Balmain dress where tracking stopped in mid December, all VC would need to do is contact DHL, I totally get it why they won't talk to me despite me having the receipt for handing it in, since I was not the one who issued the label, so they just make sure nothing fraudulent can happen, because it would be pretty easy to fake a hand in receipt. They are insured, so this should not be the issue

I tried to go through the entire thread (which was very dangerous for my wallet, mind you), but didn't see this brand mentioned, although I could have just skimmed past it.

Uashmama
- this brand uses paper that they tan like they would leather. The paper ends up being super strong and washable. I own the first gen otti bag so it has the vachetta trim. I also own a smaller crossbody that they don't sell anymore and I dont remember the name of, and a cool fold out cardholder. All have been through the grind and still look cool. I get lots of compliments.
Very interesting. Love the Canteen bag.
