Need help with mini Pochette accessories!

[D_Annie]

Hi guys,

I just received my Mini Pochette yesterday and im feeling a bit confused if I should return/exchange it. The item made in Spain everything looks fine except the bottom stitching. Is it just me or it doesn’t look alright? I had received the DE last week (MIF) unfortunately I returned it but it the bottom was fine and there’s nothing caught my attention like the Mono one.
what would you guys do? As everyone knows these items are hard to find, it took me months till I could get my hands on.

Is this normal or am I crazy? Please help!

Thank you!

Snapped a pic of my MPA for you. Bought mine brand new in August but it still looks the same. Stitching does look a bit off on yours but not sure if that will fix itself over time.. sorry dear.

she’s pretty!
I know, I have been looking all over and see none of them look like mine. I was hoping to get MIF one (as I received MIF in DE a week before) oh well it’s not like I have much choices. I feel like if this already bothers me it’s not a good sign even though I’m telling myself it looks fine.
Thanks for your response, it’s mean something for sure at least knowing it isn’t only me seeing it that way (;

I wouldn't like this if it were mine. I would probably return it and hope that I would eventually get another one.

It would bug me. If it's something you really want to use right away and don't want to wait months for another, then start looking for another, buy it and after it comes and is in good shape, sell this one to Fashionphile.

Maybe someone will chime in, but you can only return a certain number of items within a certain time frame and LV flags your account and won't sell to you, and you said you returned the DE one. I can't remember the details, but it's a certain number of returns within 3 months maybe? If you so a search on returns and flagged accounts you can probably find threads with the details.

It annoys me so much. I still can’t decide what would I do. I’m returning it for sure but hoping to get new one before I do so. Thank you so much!

I’m so disappointed knowing I’m not the only one finds this annoying. I have been constantly stalking the website since I noticed the bottom line stitching.
I’ve heard about that as well. Yes I had also returned DE key pouch late Sep(it came dent on the side and the zipper had a cut on the letter L, it was ugly. No surprise that it was made in the USA). However I have returned the DE MPA (came perfectly beautiful) because I did prefer a Mono one, how silly of me! I’m going to do more research. Thank you so much!

I am a big believer in enjoining EVERYTHING about my handbag purchases. I carefully scrutinize every item I buy and it must please me and pass my own "quality test'. If something bothers me about a handbag I will not buy it or keep it.

I had this SAME EXACT issue with my Mini Pochette in Mono when I received it a week ago (also made in Spain). I was pretty irked initially and contemplated returning it but, knowing how difficult it is to get my hands on this item, I just decided to take matters into my own hands and starting manipulating the warped canvas piping on the bottom into a straight line. This helped out tremendously and mine actually looked WORSE than yours! I wish I had taken a before pic but I didn’t think about it at the time - here is the after photo (1st pic is the side that had the visibly wrinkled piping).

I just wanted to let you know that there is hope it can be fixed! Try playing around with the piping both internally/externally until it straightens itself out. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!

I agree with you and actually do the same as you. Thank you so much!

Oh wow, we are twin! I think you probably have the same/close order date as mine. It’s so frustrating. I did try to straight it out on the first day I got it, I think it did work a bit as well.
I think you have change my perspective toward this a lot. Yes it took me 5 months to get my hands on it so it’s not really easy to let it go. Im going to keep it and I can see that I’ll be fine with it too
Thank you so much!

This would bother me as I am very particular about stitching issues but it really depends on how you feel about it. On another note, from the end of June to the beginning of September, I have returned 3 items and exchanged 1 and LV still lets me purchase items even though I wish they wouldn’t lol

Hello! Just received the Mini Pochette in Monogram. Does the stitching on the bottom look weird? The stitching appears to be lifting the leather and creating gaps/holes. Also made in Spain versus made in France.
