Hello,

I just got a vintage trocadero in very good condition except for the interior and exterior pockets. Do you know how to remove the sticky lining ? Do you know if LV can redo the pocket ? The seller told me it was very common for old pieces to have this problem. I had it authentificated, so no doubt :smile:

I'm sorry for all the questions and if there's already a topic for that.

Thanks
Indeed it's very common for these pieces to have sticky pockets because the lining slowly deteriorated. Louis Vuitton might be able to reline the pockets so I would check out with my local boutique first. Then you can look at the vintage club for lots of tips about removing the sticky lining yourself.
 
Thank you Fabuleux !

I will definitely check with a store first.

I recently bought a Pochette NM accessories in Monogram and the (I don't know how you say it in English) lid (or something like that) is getting apart from each other. So the top and bottom are getting loose on both sides. Because of that the red color is disappeared and it's now some kind of black.

It's like this. So I've contacted my SA and she say it's better you completely fix the lid. Any idea what the price would be?

How old is it?
 
When this started to happen it was just 6 weeks old. I left my bag yesterday at the store for reparation and I hope it will be with no costs :smile: On my receipt it said 50 euros for the tab, but the SA said that (MAYBE) it was going to be without any costs.
Just be aware that the red glazing will wear out again eventually.
I hope you get your repair for free!
 
I brought my Thames pm in to have my SA evaluate the shoulder strap as some parts by the hardware the glue is separating like this pouchette. She told me they don't reglue the straps. They just order a new strap. I didn't repair it as the shoulder straps were in excellent condition otherwise with fantastic patina and I just thought this was wasteful to dump these straps and costly too- she also advised that my straps weren't too bad yet. Is she correct that they don't reglue the straps?
 
Oh they don't? I thought my SA told me that it can be glued. But when I gave my bag for reparation they told me it's getting renewed. Well, I think it's better to replace it. My bag already had a nice patina, and the straps did too, but that will be fine! :-)

Hi Kitty, in the worst case scenario, I would buy superglue and make a quick fix myself if they can't repair the strap. Just a thought.
