Within the past 2 months I have purchased several monogram pieces; the Speedy 30 Bandouliere, Neverfull MM, and most recently a Delightful MM. They are all gorgeous, but each one has a different shade of color in the vachetta. The Speedy's trim is the lightest, but the Neverfull and Delightful are distinctly darker though all three bags were produced in the first couple of months of 2016. All are MIU as well.
I called LV Client Services because I am an LV noob and it concerned me that the vachetta looks so different from piece to piece. They responded something to the effect that "we update our processes periodically for product improvement, blah, blah" and said I could take the bag to a store for "assessment." I feel confident that there is nothing to "assess" as the bag is perfect. I am simply curious about the different shades of the vachetta.
Of particular concern is the newest piece, the Delightful MM that I received 2 days ago. The strap and trim are almost honey colored already. So much so, that I thought I may have received an "old stock" bag... but a date code check shows that she is new.
I wonder if others have noticed this with your new bags? Is this a fairly common phenomenon?
