I just found this thread and had to add my collection because all my LV bags have come from eBay!

I've learned so much through TPF and the wonderful members on this site! I now know what to look for and have had some great dealings with the sellers on eBay.

Ok here's my collection all but one of my bags are from Japanese sellers.

Dang, girl! You have quite the fabulous collection! All from eBay, I am super impressed. I just ordered my first from eBay and I hope it looks half as good as your bags do. :)
 
Twins! I just bought one for $34, it's from 1996 and in great condition just tarnished hardware which I don't mind for that price!View attachment 2691320

What a great deal you got!

Here's the one I got from ebay... The date code on it is CT0092. Is that Sept. 2002?

Hi, yes I was so fortunate, I love good deals! Yes sept 02, wish I had bought your one, that's when my first child was born, it would be great to have a date code that meant something special. I met my now husband in '96 but not the month of the key holder! I use this website to help with date codes as I can never remember the years they changed the format

I'm thinking of asking at my boutique how much it is to change the hook bar, I think it's expensive though. I believe it's free to have the popper on the front changed so will get that done.

Well my son was born in July of 96 so that's a great year for me. Thanks for the link. The date codes always confuse me.

I love it!!


It's so pretty and the gold lv charm looks perfect.

Hi everyone, I plan to buy my next LV bag from the Japanese sellers on eBay. So, I would like to ask you about the custom fees (This really scares me though!). Does anybody use to pay for the custom fees charge when you buy the LV bag from there? and How much it is? Thank you very much in advance;)

I bought a tp 26 for $60 from japan (£35 it needs relining so it was cheap), I'm in the uk I was charged £7.63 ($13) in customs but there is a handling fee too £13.50 ($23).
I think the safest thing to do is calculate the tax and handling fee and incorporate it into your bid and delivery charges.

How long will it take to get notification from RM? Mine has been stucked in customs for almost two weeks. Whenever I track the parcel at RM Parcelforce, it says "in progress". How do we pay the custom tax? Do we need to go to the post office?

I got a slip through the post from rm around 10 days after I bought the item, it had instructions to go online and pay and choose for delivery the next day with parcelforce. Something should have come through by now.
