Ok thank your for your response!

I start to get tired of LV, whats going on there? …..:frown:

This is already my second Artsy try, the first order came last week. When I opened the box I realized, the bag was already used or returned by someone else (all metall was scratched, the handle had a dent and two small dark marks, all the protection films were missing). So I returned, very frustrating!

But then happy to reorder as it just came back in stock. And now this!!!
Second bummer :tdown:
A pity cause in every other detail she‘s perfect, brand new, all stitches in line etc! I won‘t order online again!! Not to mention how the box arrived with UPS (wet and damaged) :mad:.

I really hope it can be fixed and the rings can be closed somehow, just contacted my SA. :hrmm:
Oh no! You ordered through the website or your SA sent it to you?
 
Hi ladies, I just received my Diane, but I am not sure if this is normal/acceptable or perhaps my other bags simply came in perfect conditions that I am not used to such “flaws”.

1. The leather on the clasp is slightly crumpled (for a brand new bag?)
2. Some area of stitching seems really tight, will it cause problems in the future with the tiny gaps already appearing now?

Did you end up keeping the bag? I want to try this bag but it hasn’t come out here yet.

I msged my SA to let her know about my concerns and she said she would let me know once she has more stock coming in, so that I could go down and take a look and do an exchange. I really like the Diane and do plan on keeping it if I could get an exchange.

I ordered through website, because the next store with my SA is two hours away. Thought I would „save“ time and money…. But now it seems I have to drive to him anyway to clear this issue!!
I‘m afraid to return online the second time, since I heard you can get blocked at LV after several returns…:whut:
 
Here are better pics
The stitch in the middle can be justified, that is where the seam bridges the inner pockets, so that is not unusual. The big one in the bottom-right corner though, that seems a little too generous with the thread. The other corner is fine.
The question never was about being authentic, but if it was a sloppy job or not. It kinda was.

Hi,
I went through all posts and photos in this thread, but no one had the same question. What do you think about sides stitching on my Neverfull MM with red interior? Stiching looks a bit red because of the lining and I'm wondering how it looks on other NFs with red interior. Both sides of the bag look the same.

Hi there,

I mentally prepared myself to overlook any minor imperfections before receiving my order, though is this enough to warrant an exchange or am I being too critical?

I ordered the Kirigami set.
My pink pouch is missing the 3 lines at the fold which is I assume serves a purpose and I see it being present on their own website.
The inside also has a bubble that's roughly 2cm x 1cm. I would like to think that it's the micro chip, then again I might be lying to myself. who knows.:huh::smile:

Other than that, the other 2 pieces are beautiful!!!

There is nothing wrong with your pink pouch. It's just a bent mark. Not unless you want to leave the pouch open, there will be bent marks.

Thank you so much for replying :amuse:
I do plan to use it and know that bent marks and possibly more will happen overtime haha.:doh::amuse:
what I was referring to is the ''line embossing'' where the bent will occur. My pink one is missing the embossing.
I've attached a pic of what it looked like on the site vs mine.
Thanks so much for bearing with me as I'm totally unfamiliar with LV

**sry I think what I was getting at is, is it normal for LV to leave out apart of their design at times as it is a minor design.
Thanks again

It's missing the bend lines. I would exchange.
