I am returning mine. The stitching is wonky on the sides and inside the pochette. I also was not super impresssd with the animation. So far Paris and NY are my favorite and so beautiful. I got the Paris cles and am tempted to get the Paris pochette but wont and save my money.
Awww I’m sorry to hear that!! I decided to keep the MP since I love the Tokyo design and it’s my only MP

I am starting to be at peace with myself that perhaps Paris key pouch and me are not meant to be.

I seldom visit physical stores and since I got the chance to be at one today, might as well ‘explore’ as much as I want. I am interested in Vivienne bike charm and Vivienne coin purse that @Jumper has, but both of them are sold out. Most of the other items are still available like MP in all prints, ZCP, passport cover, pencil case, RCP etc.

I can’t leave empty handed (after 45mins drive) so I decided to buy a Tokyo RCP and luckily, out of 3 (one display), there’s 1 with acceptable condition though the keyring has some fine scratches, I’m still happy with it.:love:

On a side note, the other 2, should be glue residues (I confirmed with the SA) are on the RCP. On one RCP it has it on one part of the glazing and on the print. The other one has it on the print. Other than the glue residues, one of them, is quite weirdly shaped, I don’t know how to describe but it’s definitely not flat and seems abit ‘curved’? Too bad I didn’t take any photos cause my kids are waiting for me.

By the way, mine is made in France and these are the photos.

Congrats!! The scratches on the hardware seems extensive esp under light (but Im glad you are ok with it)...any chance they can order / change the hardware for you? It's similar to the one for the multi pochette?
 
My key pouch has finally arrived after it went missing despite paying for it and SA said she had it packed & ready when I went yesterday but couldnt find it after she was back after 2 days off. So my SA had to find another for me (how convenient a client at the same store didn’t want their order so it’s mine!) after going through roller coaster of emotions here she is! Was sent via local courier to me as I wasn’t letting her sit there for another day! Also some comparison with the normal monogram key pouch…it’s almost the same just abit “thicker” due to the print. And that’s it my two items from this years collection ! Until next year heeee

Thanks @Mapoon for your suggestion! I will ask my CA if they can just change the hardware for me.

By the way this is the best out of the ones they have available so I guess I rather have scratches on the hardware rather than issue with the pouch itself. I already am convinced that it’s less than 50% chances to get perfect pieces nowadays and personally it’s very stressful for me every single purchase to have to spend money to worry if I would receive something lesser of quality. Sometimes it made me think more than twice before buying just because I am afraid that I will get a bad piece and give myself torture to go through the exchanging/returning process, plus thinking if LV CA/SA will think I am just a pain in the butt :hrmm:

For my nano speedy, I had exchanged 4 times and still didn’t manage to get that ok one, and I’m not even talking about perfection. Every single piece must definitely have something off with them, and I’m sure I’m not that picky. Example of issues are, winkles on leather, piping stitched too tight until it has those man-made winkles on them, missing glazing, chip on leather, “furry” threads. Maybe I’m just plain unlucky. :lol:

You sure are lucky @Mapoon! She’s perfect! The previous client must be out of her/his mind to turn this beauty down!

I hope your CA can arrange it for you, keep us posted. I totally know what you mean..hardware can be almost easily fixed but item defect itself can be tricky. LV QC has definitely dropped that's why ppl rather buy vintage now... Wow I cant believe you exchange your NS 4 times!! Did you end up keeping the 4th one?
