DE leather doesn't Patina..
Are you sure she wasn't just being polite?
Yah! I knew she was not very polite when I heard she said the leather has patina, it sound "funny" to me since my bag was a DE bag. But she mentioned that the leather was soften so they can't do hot-stamping for me. My mother bought a speedy 30 bag in DE not long ago. They did a hot-stamping for her newly purchased item instead.
It was until today, I heard from a friend that a month ago, LV also rejected hot-stamping service for her 2 months old bag. The SA told her that LV can only do hot-stamping on small items now. But..they hot-stamped on my mother's newly bought speedy about a week ago. I think they only provide such a service with newly purchase bags ...bags purchase on the spot.



They should let customers know that they only provide free hot-stamping with newly purchase bags instead of finding excuses. Not very happy about this, but was not totally disappointed since she checked the bag and never mentioned that was a fake one.
