MC's speedy scare the hell out of me

[GerGirl]

Looking at the really dark vachetta, I'd say this Speedy was an everyday bag - and thrown around

Maybe she loved the bag very much... but one day a purse snatcher came up to her to try and steal it and she beat him with it?

maybe she used it everyday in all seasons, and it rubbed with things and skin a lot. it's like skin cancer

I have a Black MC Speedy, and have had it since they first came out. Mine is in immaculate condition; there is no fading/chipping of colors whatsoever. I used mine ALOT, and it in no way looks like this one pictured. The one in the picture looks like it was dragged behind a car or something. Seriously, it looks like it was dragged on the ground! Also, the handles are FILTHY; not patinaed.

This is just a case of someone misusing their bag. Such a shame!

The owner DEFINITELY got her $$$ worth!

It was definitely thrown around...possibly even under a car.

The owner DEFINITELY got her $$$ worth!

the canvas looks fine, gorgeous, except for the white spot

and used patina will always look like that

why do you guys always think purses like these are abused??

The handles are BLACK, not a dark honey color, that's why they say they are abused. MC bags are not even that old, they shouldn't look like this..

i don't really mind the patina. but the blue LV that's rubbed off that's just too scary. and the other LV letterings that's rubbed off like that, and to think of paying 700$ for that bag is just...

I heard that the bags that were first made in this line fade a lot faster than the bags that were just produced. Is this true?

...what is the owner used it everyday, most likely in asia, where the climate is always humid. my aunts who live in taiwans MC speedy look exactly like this, very dark patina, along with her other purses. let-trade i think is from hong kong, and asia is known for its humid climate.

they arent abused, they are just used daily in a humid climate

I have a white MC pochette I got in 2004 and the colors on the corners are starting to rub off, despite my taking care of the bag. I think it's a natural process for this line. That being said, the speedy in this thread looks horrendous!

MC is known to fade off, again *i think* being in a humid climate can speedy up the fading off the canvas. also if the owner stuffed her purse than it could have been filled up too much that the cavas around the piping started to strech therefore the colors would become distorted.
