Hello. I am new here so I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered already.
Can someone tell me why LV's retail price on brand new agendas (such as the Paul Notebook cover or the Desk Agenda cover) are lower than a used item on Fashionphile? It is $590 online (LV) vs $700 on Fashionphile. Same with the Desk Agenda which retails for $620 but is $950 on Fashionphile. Did LV lower their pricing for agendas?
LV never has sales, nor do they lower prices. When you’re buying from the second hand market, they charge whatever they want.
 
Has anyone bought LV from What Goes Around Comes Around and or LV from Shopbop?
I have bought LV from What Goes Around Comes Around, in person at Von Maur. I found the prices to be high, but the condition is excellent. Maybe Von Maur has an additional markup? Sales are final, which I'm not crazy about. However, I bought a Gucci from them online and was able to return it.

Can someone please tell me in what year the Idylle speedy was launched? I’m looking to buy one on a well known seller of designer items (not eBay!) and the bag I am looking at has inside sp0067. France, June, 2007? I was wondering if that is too early or the right year for one. TIA!

Does every location have preloved? I don’t really like buying items that are final sale, makes me nervous in case I change my mind….The shop bop what goes around purchase I am able to return…..

Idylle Canvas was launched in 2010. It looks remarkably similar to Mini Lin canvas, (which was an early 2000s version). Idylle was limited to a few colors.

If it’s the speedy bandouliere 30, it should be Idylle and not mini lin, as bandouliere version of speedy came out from 2010-ish onwards and not earlier. Idylle came out and replaced mini lin. My first speedy bandouliere was Idylle speedy B in 30. It’s 10 years already since I bought mine in 2012. The print fades a little near where the zip is but I love the sparkly golden hardware! I use it rarely now because I’m only keeping it as a momento now. I tend to load far too many stuff in it because of the space.

It’s not a bandouliere.
