I went to purchase one on Saturday but I didn't love the look or the leather in person. I also felt uncertain about the price point in light of leather goods available from other brands. So I came away with just a leather coin purse which is gorgeous.
Did you look at any of the other leather bags? Maybe they would appeal to you more. IMO Longchamp has a pretty good price point-I guess it depends what other brands you're comparing them with! A much better value for a leather LC than a leather LV for example. But, it really doesn't matter if you don't love the bag! I'm glad you did find something you liked-what coin purse did you get?
Well I went specifically to purchase the LP Cuir but when I saw it, held it and tried it on I just felt 
I felt that it was expensive for what it was and I had the exact same feeling again half an hour later when I went in to LV to purchase the speedy in damier ebene. I came out with nothing because...
The LC all-leather duffle bags are
Now, I think these offer excellent value for money compared to what I paid for my LV canvas speedy (3 years ago - not even today's crazy prices). I love my speedy, I really do, but let's be sensible when comparing leather to plastic coated canvas 
I purchased the LC Le Foulonne coin purse (not sure if the link will work) which I absolutely *love*. This was what I purchased instead of the LV round coin purse.

I'm still thinking about the LC duffle...

That's a great pouch-one of my favorites. Prpbably my most used LC lol.
Hi everyone, new to this thread. May I know where are the recent longchamp lepliage cuirs (medium) made in nowadays? Is it France, Tunisia, or China? I heard that the newer batches are no longer made in China but I could be mistaken.
Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

I bought a Medium Blue Cuir in April and I had a choice between Made in Romania or Tunisia. The Small Blue I which I didn't buy was Made in France.
It is still made in various countries. You get a better chance of a MIF if you pick a new color.
Thanks everyone for the replies. I recently tried to source for a medium cuir online from last season (because this season's colours are just not for me) and was about to purchase a bag but had a nagging suspicion that the bag I was looking at might be a very good fake. I mean, the seller seemed honest enough but I was not convinced but I did not have sufficient photos to possibly get it authenticated at the LC thread. Hence, I am just posting some questionable photos here with hopes of getting some advice from you ladies who own cuirs.
The bag seems pretty ok material and colour wise but the questionable one is the back of the leather tag. I remember the leather tag should follow the colour of the bag, but this one is in white. Does anyone here have a similar leather tag with a white backing? (See picture 3)
Thanks!

For authentication requests, kindly post on "authenticate this longchamp" thread. Thank you.
I am not really here to authenticate the bag. I am just here to check on specifically the tag (picture 3) with cuir owners. The reason for posting here is because I do not have photos from all angles which the authenticate thread requires. Thanks.
The tags seem off, in my opinion.
Is this an online store? Would be best if you could request more photos.
Yep, its from carousell. The name of the seller is in the photos too.
Ladies, please be extra careful when shopping on carousell. Lots of pre-orders LCs are probably fake. Please ask for photos of their current stock which they have brought in to be sure.
