Thanks so much!! Is your order in prep yet? usually if they are going to cancel they do with within the first 30 minutes :tup:

No the PA is still on submitted at the moment, waiting for it to get to and pass the Pending order validation too :( fingers crossed!
If all goes well, any suggestions of a cross body strap to use? thinking of either the adjustable vachetta or the 16mm adjustable monogram, not sure which one I would prefer..

Fingers crossed for you!!! I actually have both, the monogram and the vachetta 16mm adjustable straps now. I got the mono couple weeks back off the site before the price increase but I think they restock it often and the vachetta one off Vestiaire last week for a good deal. I actually much prefer the mono strap with the mono pochette for some reason :yes:

I prefer the 16mm adjustable monogram, just not to have vachetta issues, however the vachetta strap gives the bag another look too. Decisions, Decisions! :girlsigh:

I like the vachetta strap especially when it gets quite dark as i feel like it gives the bag a really vintagey look which I love for that bag and it's not too monogramy all over. But at the same time the mono strap gives it a really modern twist.... will have to try in store once they open again methinks! excited :lol:

If you have a store nearby I think that's a great idea! Really hope this one works out for you :amuse:
 
hi ladies. not sure whether this is the correct place for my question. if not then my apologies, please let me know.

I am thinking of buying a preloved Louis Vuitton Padlock to use as a necklace. does any one know whether this can be Brought into Louis Vuitton ( when things go back to normal) to be repaired/ replaced if tarnishes badly over time?

(p.s. I am in London )

any advice is appreciated x

As far as I am aware LV do not 'repair' padlocks. Padlocks with keys are around £25 from the store. Padlocks that are tarnishing can simply be polished back with Brasso as they are brass.

Thank you so much!! omg you are amazing, always coming to my rescue!!:flowers:

I will look for brasso on amazon.

sorry I'm a little slow. If for any reason I do need them replaced, do you think LV will do so (at a price of course) even though they were bought second hand?

Thanks again x x

No problem at all, you can get Brasso at places like B&Q or Homebase or even Tesco / Sainsburys. I don't think they would replace them as in they would just suggest you get a new one. I would also recommend just trying to get a brand new one from the store instead of buying preloved as most sellers sell them for double the price of what they actually cost brand new from LV as people don't think that you can buy them from the store. I don't think they would be that hard to get as they simply are a 'replacement' part for a bag.
 
Brasso or padlock? Brasso approx £4 and brand new padlock with 2 keys approx £25

Thank you so much lovely
I'm so grateful for your help.
I went from buying a 2nd hand tarnished lock with no key on a gold plate necklace for £100. To a brand new key and lock for £25 from a seller with a lot of experience and great reviews!

Thank you again!
