I would love to know his as well:) I bought mine in NYC last year and there two holes in the corners needing repair. I am in Vancouver and when I called the south Granville location they said they couldn't even send it out for me. I called customer service at longchamp and was told the only thing to do was for me to bring it to the closest US store.

Does anyone have advice for getting pen marks out of the interior of a Le Pilage? I tried searching, but I can't find the answer :) I read somewhere that milk helps, and while using milk did fade the mark a little, it is still noticeable. I'd appreciate any advice!! I'm trying to avoid throwing it in the washing machine, as it's a limited edition Le Pilage (not one of my workhorse ones).

The alcohol free baby wipes might help. I have used them to clean a canvas bag, but not sure of the material on the inside of the Le Pliage bags. I also use a purse organizer in all of my bags, which keeps the interior clean.

i went by flagship to drop off my PLANETES.
they will repair holes in corner for free. they asked if i repaired before.
to replace the handles, they charge $30 which is reasonable.
they said at least 8 wks turnaround time.

Hi,
I have a longchamp pliage bag that I just got from ebay and there are stains inside that I'm hoping to get rid of. Does anyone know what these stains are (the owner said pens) but they don't look like pens. The last time I saw something like that was when a black dyed leather belt rubbed off on my beige leather purse but this is supposed to be hard-wearing polyester. Before I start trying anything crazy, does anyone have any recommendations? (Also, I've included a few pictures of the bottom/exterior bag. There are a few dots (dirt?) that I will try and remove with soap and water.
Thanks :)

Wow, that's really stained. Personally, I would put it in the washing machine and hope for the best. Even if the interior stains don't come out at least you'd know it's clean.

Doreenjoy mentioned it earlier in the thread and I agree with her:
I would never put my LP in washing machine. It causes bubbles in the nylon. I saw a woman with a LP that was bubbled all over and it was from the wash.

I would spot clean myself with stain remover.

I spilled some coffee on the outside of my neo weeks ago and just noticed it now. Any ideas how to remove? I did scrub with a wet microfiber cloth but it looks like I need something stronger.

How long have you had your Planetes? I think $30 is very reasonable.
