EU Chatting and Stalking

Th

I actually argued with her for a long time, told her that somebody I know was able to preorder and that I don't understand why it wasn't possible for me, but to no avail.
I will just have to try my luck on the website on launch day.
I have the old Nano Noé with the non detachable strap, still brand spanking new, so no hurry really.
I hope this new one is bit bigger than the old one, unlike the Nano Speedy where the new one is smaller than the older version.

That’s so wild that some people can preorder and others can’t. There’s no rhyme or reason and just luck of the draw.

I don’t believe you lol! From an addict to another addict…there’s no joining ban island I said I would last month to save up for a new bag and then Chanel had a launch and a couple of hard to pass jewels just dangled in my face…oh I couldn’t resist I think ban island is only a theory. It doesn’t really exist in our world, does it?

I don’t think voluntary ban island exists either. We all say we’re going there, but never really get there. The only way any of us will get to ban island is if LV sends us there unwillingly.

Yes ! It cost med 4117 DKK to get all vachetta replaced and also new strap

That's cheap, considering that the store in Hamburg quoted me close to €1,000.00 3 years ago for the whole Vachetta replacement and strap on a Petite Noé, which was probably close to the price of a new one at that time.
I ended up having the work done by someone who repairs luxury bags and he really did a great job for €400.00. He made me a longer strap, to make it possible for crossbody, made it like the new version of the Petite Noé with the Vachetta on the bottom, added a D-ring inside, and a drawstring cincher, however the LV stamp on the Vachetta couldn't be replicated, and the non reusable rivets are now generic, but I love the thick vintage canvas, so I don't mind.

This has happened to a few us before with preorders, but calling back on different days/times, you may get an agent that’s willing to help. You can also add the items you want to your WL from one of the Asia sites a couple of days before the official Friday release date. This will give you a head start as the items should hopefully show in your WL on the Thursday (day before release), around mid/late afternoon.

Thanks for the tip.
I didn't know about adding items to WL from the Asia sites before the launch dates.

Wow!! Makes me wonder if I should buy preloved and just have vachetta repaired!! I’ve always seen such overuse that made me turn away from preloved but I never thought about repairs….hmmm…..

What?? €1000?? Wow , that is expensive For Petit Noe. even less vachetta than Noe GM! For all I know/ read , Noe and Alma is around €550 , Speedy is €600 in LV for changing the vachetta ..

But €400 for all the work done like you mentioned also cheap Did u do it in Denmark or in Germany?

Some is worth it ! I dont have Alma yet , now on the hunt for vintage one and send them for repair Many did it since it will look brand new

 

[Bumbles]

I’m not either and I’m having panic attacks that I have to preorder something because everybody else is
But there’s nothing I really like so far. I’d like a new card holder in pink or beige Empreinte but nothing seems to come out.

Lol that’s a good thing if you don’t want anything because there’s more collections to come so save your money for those ones. I’m still thinking whether I need or would have a use for the wapity, otherwise I will pass on this collection as well. My heart is saying it’s super cute and so pretty and I missed out on the original one, BUT my head is saying it’s so small, light in colour and so easy to get dirty, what would I fit in it and it’s not practical so I’m undecided as they are fighting at the moment hehehehe

Same! Obsessed with the midnight fuchsia but only two bags coming out is not something I would use. I feel like I need the color way in my life but be stuck with silly bags I won’t reach for often.

Anyone else in love with the colors? I hear most think the pink is too bright but I love it.

I'm also not preordering, we can have our own club together! I prefer to see it in store for this collection

A guy in Paris did the job for me.
His Insta profile is Louisvintageparis, check him out, he’s really good.
Got it touch with him through Facebook Group.
Yeah, that €1,000.00 quote from Hamburg Store 3 years ago was way too much.
