Hi everyone, I’m new to the LV world. Recently I purchased 2 key pouches (mono and DE both MIF) and decided to return them after noticing that both pouches were lopsided (straight on one side and curved on other) with major stitching showing.

I then was lucky to snatch a Kirigami Pochette set in mono (MIF) from the website. After getting that in, I noticed some small peeling on the edges of the PM Kirigami. I can rub it away but I don’t feel like this should be happening to a new luxury piece. What are your thoughts? Should I return this?

I would definitely try calling CS and see if they could do an exchange for you. That shouldn’t be happening to a brand new set.

Looks like excess glue/glazing. Not peeling nor a quality issue IMO because it comes right off without interfering with the applied glazing. Many of my new pieces had that and after taking it off it hasn’t gotten or looked worse. Lots of people ask about this exact thing here on TPF.

Thanks

I’ll try it.

You can also use wax paper to rub on the teeth- this is a little less messy than wax (or a bar of soap). This is not uncommon with a new item. I often have to do this so I keep the wax paper handy. Plus, it is easy for maintaining a smooth glide with use.

Thank you, will try it.

Thanks both of you! I’ll keep an eye on it these next few days and decide what to do by the end of the week.

I had an earlier post that my key cles smelled like chemical, so I had to send back and they exchanged it. Someone else had mentioned that sometimes they send the same one back. Well not sure, but the new one smells and the zipper is great. Go figure...I will air it out and see what happens.

Hi everyone I recently snagged a Pochette Metis in Reverse Monogram from online and it just came today. I noticed that the glazing is a little bit rough on the edges (if I run my fingers over it, it feels a little jagged) and some of the glazing is uneven or even overlaps with the canvas. I am not the pickiest person but I was wondering... Will this affect the glazing in the future? Such as glazing peeling or melting? Thanks!

Looks very fine actually. The LV edges on PM are all like that. Glazing peeling or rubbing-off happens on all luxury bags that's wear. But I doubt the melting issue would appear again since that that was almost scandalous of LV..

I recently purchased the Multi Pochette Accessories in Khaki. When I opened the package, I realized the bag was in a small box and the strap had dents. Next thing, I realized the tag was marked as Rose instead of Khaki. I checked the date code and it was made in the 5th week of 2020. I have a feeling this was a return or maybe lightly used bag. Should I just return it or just keep it? It’s made in France by the way.

Just got a new felicie and it has a crease across the front. I know the speedy ones eventually come out, but I am unsure about this one because of its placement. Think it will come out or do I return?

Hi guys ,

I need your expertise on if there are flaws on my bag. Is the alignment ok? Does it pass the test to your expert eyes ( I have no idea what to look for to see if everything is ok so your help will be appreciated)

It looks good to me. Where was it made- just curious. Enjoy your beautiful new bag.

Thank you. It is made in USA so it bugs me a bit.. I really want to make sure it’s ok to keep it at the price we pay for these bags..

Hi all!

So this is my third PSM that I’ve ordered online. The other two had major stitching issues and scratched hardware. But this one seems fine except for one possible flaw? On the back where the canvas meets the side the stitching seems to have created a significant dip that doesn’t match the other side. Is this normal? I really love this bag and want to add it to my collection. And also, stalking on the website has been annoying since my LV store has closed back up due to the protesting.

Should I exchange for another one or keep? Thanks in advance!
