LV Luggage Tags -> Having your profile "marked?"

[JadaStormy]

Well the reason I showed her in the first place was because when I initially purchased them many months ago, I had told her my intention to begin with. So.. The opportunity for me to show her was then and there, and how would I have known that it was an issue then. I literally felt like I was building my relationship with the SA or Repairs Associate then, she had insisted that I show it to her when I came back from my trips. And purchasing them as intended is exactly what I did, personalize, hot stamp, or put on my actual LV pieces. Now I have seen and heard that many folks have purchased them without a Luggage from LV, so why should I be discriminated (maybe wrong term) for actually having those purchases, and actually having all the luggage tags. That should show that I am not in the business of reselling. Now, if I was reselling, then that is a different story.

Personally when I got tags I just said I needed to order a replacement and I left it at that, I never give any additional information because I know how strict they are. I remember one user was told no because she showed them a pic from Instagram. I feel like if she hadn't done that, she might have gotten a tag.

I understand their issue is that they don't make money off them and people resell for a profit, so they really only want to get them in the hands of people who genuinely lost them. I think someone else mentioned that because the tags are for luggage LV isn't super keen on them being used on purses. They also don't like when we add clochettes to bags that didn't come with them.

But still, it's definitely nothing worth getting flagged over and I can understand how disheartening it must be to show the SA your pics to prove you aren't a reseller only to have her say now you're banned. I really hope you aren't banned. Maybe the flag is just no more luggage tags.

I think their luggage tag policy is silly; clearly there are people interested in this item, so just charge whatever they need to in order to make a profit on them, just as LV would for any other item. Might mean people that truly lose/damage their luggage tag will need to pay a little more to get a replacement, but oh well, they can always get a non-LV luggage tag if they don't want to pay the price.

The date breach thing is bad, but mistakes happen, they will happen to all companies and all people at some point. Trying to build goodwill and good service to clients mitigates problems when mistakes do happen, makes clients less likely to pursue the issue and wanting to "punish" or "get back at" LV or any other company.

I have noticed a lot of their new bags have luggage tags or key bells so I don't think they don't want luggage tags on bags.(at least half of the new bags have either a tag or key bell) They just want to be the one doing it and making a profit out of it, which I fully understand. They probably didn't expect the luggage tag thing to blow up as it did and probably trying to figure out how to make money on it and stop the resellers at the same time.

I'd be very surprised if the OP is banned on all items.

Honestly if I was to be banned on purchasing any of their goods I can live on on there brands. Just a shame that, while I get that it’s a new policy, but if I was able to produce the products I purchased that should be proof enough that I’m not reselling it.

If I did get banned for purchasing LV at all, then I’d just sell all my LV and shop at Goyard from now on or even Chanel for my mother.
While it’s not the end of the world, I thank you folks on here for kinda calming me down with your chats and perspectives.

I emailed LV customer care, and they had responded back to me that they forwarded it to the appropriate parties, my guess is for the data breach.

I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to know how this thing ended for you? Did you get a letter or some kind of ban?

Nothing ever came of it.
honestly, the week after I posted and emailed customer service, I went back to the same boutique and the very same repair associate had exchanged helped me with a repair and purchase of another tag.
