Adding this beauty to my collection :heart: I have been searching for the perfect pink bag lately and was looking into the Locky BB in Monogram/Rose Ballerine. Then I found out that the Locky BB also used to come in EPI leather (unavailable now) and was bummed because I loved how it looked in Rose Ballerine. Imagine my luck when I saw this beauty pop up on 24S. This was the exact colour in EPI leather that I wanted!

Unfortunately there were dents and black marks on the back from where the strap hits the bag. I was able to remove the black marks and reduce the dents a little bit but they are still there. I think I can look past these because it’s so beautiful!

Also, can anyone please let me know the best method to remove tarnish. Thanks in advance!

This is after I used a baby wipe to remove the black marks:

Congrats on this gorgeous acquisition !! I have come to LVoe Epi leather as much as traditional monogram. Just wondering how your experience on 24s.com went. I have yet to try this website !

:heart: :heart::love: Wow this is soooo beautiful _vee! You did a great job! It was clearly meant to be yours as you know how to care for her properly. It’s too bad you had to do that, but I think she’s totally worth it. I love epi and wish they offered more bags in it. Congratulations!

Thank you so much @Aliluvlv!! I tried my best! :) I’m loving EPI! I agree— we need more Epi bags and SLG’s, especially in Rose Ballerine! :)

So glad to see you got this pink beauty — I remember you have been looking for a RB bag for awhile. You did a great job on improving the minor imperfections — you can’t really see them now, you are good to go :smile:. I would have bought this pink cutie if I didn’t already have a RB bag. Congrats and enjoy :smile:.

Thank you so much @Iamminda! I agree, you can’t really see anything unless you’re inspecting it closely. When I scored this beauty, it reminded me of your 24S score with your gorgeous PM :)

Though I’d purchased a couple items for my mom before, this is my first official LV piece! A Recto Verso! Purchased at the NOLA boutique and had a great experience. Thinking I should go with a matching Speedy next!

Thank you!! I love 24S. So far, I’ve ordered a bucket hat and cashmere scarf from Burberry. This is my third purchase. All 3 orders were great. They have incredibly fast shipping! This got here from Paris to Toronto, Canada in 3 days. I ordered on Thursday and got it on Sunday. The only issue with this order was the dents on the back of the bag caused from the handle and the tarnished lock (which was probably a result of the plastic cover still being on it).
