I’ve had it for about three years. I’ll have to go look. I know I have the receipt still
Hi everyone! Hope everyone is doing well 
I’m new to this but I just recently purchased a toiletry pouch 26 and noticed that there’s a little bubble in the inside corner compared to other 3 corners. I might sound picky but I’m just wondering if it’s normal or not and I just want to make sure it won’t be a problem in the long run?

There are 3 stitches that are longer than the rest - my older bag has 4 stitches that are the same as the rest of the bag. Is it normal?
Also noticed the stamping on the side of the bag is wonky - check out the S in Louis. It looks like it’s trying to fly away from the rest of the word. Is that normal?

Yes that all looks fine. Please look at the stitches on your cars interior if you think otherwise.
Hi.. I wanted to join with my new Pochette Metis but noticed a shade line between the 2 flowers on the right side. It’s visible at certain angles and invisible at others.
What do you think it is and should I exchange?
Such a shame because everything else was perfect..

Has anyone ever come across double date codes in any of your LV items? I have a pochette accessoires in azur that I did purchase pre-loved, and I just noticed that it has 2 date code tabs (both are the same date code.) I was so sure it was authentic but I realize there are some really good replicas out there and I could have been fooled. All my other LV items have been purchased directly from the boutique or from the LV website. Just curious to know if anyone else has experienced this. Maybe its a fake or maybe I have a really rare item lol.
Hi everyone,
Last Christmas, my husband and I purchased a Riverside for our daughter-in-law. Yesterday, she showed me the rings on each side of the bag that are scratched, tarnished or the gold has just rubbed off - I can't quite figure out what is going on with it. My husband told me that I am silly to think that this is not normal wear and tear, but I want to take it back to LV to have them look at it since the bag is less than a year old. What do you guys think?

That looks like where the buckle for the strap connects to. Metal on metal contact (especially where the weight of the bag is going to hang) will always cause scratches and will wear much more quickly then other hardware that does not have constant rubbing. It seems perfectly normal to me.
It does look like the plastic coating on top of the canvas has "melted" due to contact with chemicals such as hand sanitizer.
Hello,
I’m looking for some advice! I purchased a DE Speedy B 30 two days ago. I haven’t used her yet but took her out last night.
I noticed some small wrinkles on one of the side straps. I’m torn on what to do. On one hand, I feel that a piece like this should be perfect for the price that is paid but I also understand that when something is handmade, it may not be perfect 100% of the time.
Aesthetically, it wouldn’t bother me too much as it’s something that I won’t see but I’m worried that it will develop into cracks or get worse over time. I know that there have been quality issues with the Speedy B.
I have other DE pieces without this problem. Any advice??
On a side note, as you can see, the hardware already looks scratched...I’m not sure how that happened!!
Thank you and stay safe.
