Hi everyone!
A few weeks ago I was at my local Chanel boutique to look at some brooches and to decide wether I wanted to defitely buy my HG grey medium flap online via Ebay or go for another one in the boutique. While chatting with my SA I mentioned to that I still love the black Jumbo I have, but that it hurts me to look at the wear it has developed in the 8 years I have had her. I bought her when I was 18 (only still €1890,- back then.. wow) and have used her non stop ever since, so no wonder she has some wear.. but still painful to look at.. He mentioned I could have her sent to Paris to get her refurbished, so a few days later I decided to go for it.
This was the state she was in when I dropped her off, lot's of wear, cracks and fraying:
Only 3.5 weeks later I got a call from the boutique that she was back from repairs and that I could come and pick her up. I was a bit surprised because they told me they would call to let me know the price before repairing, which they hadn't done.. however they said it had cost €140,- so that wasn't all that bad at all!
I just picked her up and I couldn't be happier!! They totally exceeded my expectations, I had no idea she could look this amazing again..
So without further ado, my shiny beautiful girl as new (as possible)!
