This is exactly why I sold all my big LV bags. I wasn't using them and plus I don't even carry that much with me. nowadays all I carry ranges from tiny to small crossbody and shoulder bags. I even got rid of all my large and medium size wallets. I use ZCP and business card holder as my everyday wallets
Thanks!!
Sounds like you don't love DEI have a dilemma if I could get your feedback please. I would like to get the graceful and I had initially intended on getting the monogram. I'm in love with the monogram, especially in this bag. I don't like the Damier ebene but I hate when the light coloured leather patinas on the monogram. With this strap too there's such a great amount of material (versus say a neverfull thin strap). I think I would really hate it getting darker, might even avoid using it because I don't want to get it dirty. However I feel if I were to get the damier ebene I would use it more but not love the pattern. What's worse?? Not loving the pattern (DE) or hating the patina (monogram)? Also this was supposed to be a throw around casual everyday bag. I don't want to baby the strap. Perhaps I'd get used to the patina? Any thoughts would be helpful please
I love the Neo Noe. At first I was turned off by the design but when I tried it on it is actually amazing. The monogram comes with multiple choices of worry free leather trim, not vachetta - something to considerI have a dilemma if I could get your feedback please.

Any discounted site for new items is likely counterfeit, which is illegal. A lot of times they use LV pics, not their own.
You could take pics and have an item authenticated for $10 by proauthenticators. I’m pretty sure items purchased by employees at a discount are closely watched and if a serial number appears for sale there are serious consequences. I’ve read that employees are offered discounted prices on certain items and if they don’t buy them, LV will burn the leftovers rather than sell at a discount.
Are you talking about a store that sells pre-loved designer goods? I guess the shoes could be authentic if an LV employee buys them and then sells them back. I would be really careful since there are a lot of counterfeit LV shoes on the market. Also, I noticed that a lot of employee uniform shoes are being sold on eBay. These are not the same quality as other LV shoes (the men’s derby in particular). When you buy something outside the official retail channels, do a lot of research before spending your money.
No serial numbers on most LV items. Vuitton can’t control employee resale that’s why they limit the amount of money an employee can spend on discounted goods per year.
