Estrela Retiro

[ChicagoJess]

Hello all! My pre-loved Estrela arrived today - and I have a question for anyone who owns one. When it comes new from Louis Vuitton, is it folded? I ordered off of Tradesy, from a seller who's profile said they were in Chicago. However the bag shipped from China, and they folded it up to make it fit in the box. Now has a crease in the canvas, that was not disclosed in the listing and for sure didn't show up in pictures. Not sure if the crease came from the packing method, or if the new ones come folded anyway and that they always have a crease in them. (For example the Alexander Wang Rocco bags come folded up, and there's a crease in the leather that never completely goes away.)
I just wanted to find out what other people thought, before I let myself become unhappy with the bag due to the crease. LOL
TIA!

I have the older version and mine did not come folded up at all. I wouldsend back and ask for refund. I wouls be unhappy with a crease too considering the structure of the bag.

I don't recall mine being folded. I think it was stuffed with tissue paper. The fact that the listing said Chicago and it shipped from China would give me great pause. I would probably return based on that alone.

Thank you! I'm going to request the return right now.

Yes, I would return. Saying ur in Chicago and shipping from China is a huge red flag for me.

Just yesterday I received an Estrella MM from Fashionphile. Their packaging is impeccable and there was NO folding.

Most bags come to the LV store flat and sometimes ends folded in. Creases will come out if you stuff the bag
