Oh no~~ its not good. I know the feeling. My speedy b25 stayed in the lv repair longer than it stayes in my closet. I’ve had it repaired for i guess more than 3x and pushed the repair guy. Fortunately i didnt pay anything. The side leather wasnt really perfect but atleast they changed the hardwarws. I hope you will find solution soon.
Hi! Why did you have them change the hardware on your speedy? And is it in mono or DE or another print/leather?
 
Thank you all. The bag is made in Spain and the rest of it is perfect in my opinion. I'm afraid that when I exchange it, I can get worse piece. Even with a little bit of red stiches are even.
 
Hey guys,
finally I was lucky and got my brandnew Artsy monogram from my SA today :yahoo:(after two bummers from online shop I had to return :annoyed: cause of several issues)….
The bag is perfect this time! :love: I just have one (silly) question (don‘t knoe if this was already discussed here on forum):
When I grab into the inside pockets I can feel a kind of „plastic stripe“ behind the lining, like attached in between the inside lining and the outside canvas in the „hollow“. It’s the same on both sides of the bag.
Is this normal with the Artsy? Perhaps for shaping the bag?
Or is this the new Data Code Chip?
TIA to anyone who can enlighten me :idea: and a wonderful weekend to all!

After a month or so the hardware started to have the black stains and tarnishing so bad. It looks so old. I have the speeby b25 in damier ebene. I went to the store and they told me that its normal that it will look like this like a vintage look. So i told them its not even a year old. Used it twice and it all hardwares were tarnishing so bad that i dont even want to use. It didnt stop me there. I still insisted to send my bag to the repair shop and have them evaluated. It was a long journey until they finally change the hardwares.
 
I'm so disappointed right now. I sent my brand new Alma BB to the atelier (huge mistake) to fix a dent in the handle more than 8 weeks ago. They kept saying they were waiting for the "parts". After multiple follow ups they finally said it was ready to pick up. I sent my husband to get it so he unfortunately only inspected the handles. Upon opening it I immediately noticed that it was squished and had a scratch on the bottom trim that wasn't there before. I've messaged the atelier but at this point I don't even know if I want to go through leaving it there for who knows how many more months. UGH. Sorry for the long post, just needed to vent:sad:

UPDATE: After complaining to the atelier about the scratch they agreed to accommodate an exchange. Received my brand new MIF (the original wasn't) Alma BB in perfect condition today. FINALLY!
 
hi everyone!
I've on a hunt for Speedy B 25 and recently got one online, received it last friday and noticed kind of a long bulb on canvas between handles on both sides.
so i wonder is this normal? has anyone seen anything like this before and what it can possibly end up with. should i exchange it or should i just ignore and enjoy the bag. besides this the bag is perfect!
would appreciate any response!

If it will bother you then better to exchange now before using it. It might be because of how they fold it like a pancake but not sure. I think brand new speedys usually have folded areas coz the way it is stored and folded. For me im sure it will bother me and will stop me from using the bag which is not practical on keeping it. Hope you will find a solution
