Does anyone know if the spa treatment will diminish or reduce the look of the dents or scratches? I really like lambskin but the fact that it is harder to keep than caviar is holding me back.

Hi!

I need to replace my gold chain on my vintage chanel bag. The gold color on the chain has faded away, and it's kinda sticky? Does anyone know how much this will cost to get a new chain? Thanks :-)

Hi girls,

I'm traveling to LA in April. Here in Toronto, the Chanel store does not do repair but sends it out to a non-Chanel place. If I go to LA, can I drop my bag for repair and ask them to mail it to Toronto for me?

Anyone had a full wallet refurbishment and recolor? How did it go?
Also, TheBigBagAddict, have you had a couple of repairs done? Were the prices comparable to what the Americans pay? CHANEL don't seem to have a full repair price for bags here in Japan. It seems to be piece by piece pricing.

I only have experience with the uk boutiques but if a bag gets sent to Paris for repair it is a 6 to 8 week time frame.

Wow for so long? I thought that they maybe would just replace the gold chain in the boutiques or something? My gold chain is so worn out and the leather on the chain, I just want to replace it. I'm going to London in April, but for only 4 days! Ugh..

^If they have the chain in stock then they can replace it for you in the boutique but they don't have all parts in stock. It might be worth giving them a call before you take the bag to see if it's possible to have the chain replaced at the boutique. I'm not even sure if they keep the chains in the boutique or not sorry, I only know that they did have a reissue front clasp in stock afew weeks ago when I took my reissue in.

I'm not sure how the prices compare to US prices but for a new reissue gold chain it cost's £80 here, £60 for the front clasp and £20 for each eyelet.

I have a classic chanel bag. I just called chanel at saks and found out it takes about 2-3 months to reburbish a chanel bag. Has anyone done it quicker for smaller repairs?? I just need one of the handles fixed.

Thanks in advance for any information.
