Anyone know the cost to replace just the zipper on a zippy compact?
I was able to restore the zipper line on the OM I attained, but the zipper pull is quite scratched up.. thank you in advance! :happydance:​

I went to an LV store in Palo Alto, CA and had all piping replaced and they charge $180 and said that if I wanted a new zipper tab it is an extra $30. I believe its different depending on the severity of the damage and location. Just walk in to a store and ask for a quote. Hope this helps!

Thank you! When I pick up my other pieces from repair I'm sending my zippy compact wallet off too! Many thanks [emoji4]

Hello everyone, so I have "inherited" a montsouris gm backpack and had my loving husband brought it to Louis vuitton at Michigan Ave here in Chicago to have it evaluated for the replacement of its leather parts during his lunch break. I called several times but as most of you guys mentioned here, they want to see the bag to be repaired for estimates. Here is what the great SA wrote with his business card..
(Not sure if its okay to post a business card here, moderators, kindly remove it if it's not allowed)

I called him for the clarifications like the leather lace is a separate cost from the $770 leather replacement and that's the exterior leather parts only. I asked him if they are going to re stamp the date code but he wasn't sure and told me that he'll contact the repair department about it. He also forgot to write the price for the trimming/binding and when I asked him, he said it's around $200-300 which I think probably wrong base on what other posted here...I emailed him too because my priority to be replaced for now are the base leather of the bag, the binding and just the front strap (except the leather where the buckle closure is in because that's where the date code is) and would really like to have the right estimate..hopefully it will not go beyond $500

He replied right away and he added these questions to his email to the repair department. Hopefully I'll be able to get the cost so I can give the go signal to my dearest husband. Btw, this was yesterday so it wasn't that long

The SA seems like a really nice guy

So finally I got the estimates for the replacement of the leathers of my montsouris gm:


Locking strap leather(buckle part not included) =$90
Locking strap with the buckle part = $120
Trimming/ binding= $60
Bottom leather of the bag =$270
Leather straps =$120
Lace=$60

If all exterior leathers will be replaced, it will cost $770 plus $60 for the lace of the bag.
If the date code is stamped on the leather where the buckle is, they will not re stamped the date code which I think makes sense because it will not have it's original leather anymore when it was made.
Joshua, my client specialist advisor, is so awesome and really replied to all my inquiries and pretty quick.
I hope these will help you guys out. Have a blessed and wonderful weekend.

I just recently had my Montsouris gm backpack repaired and it was a total of $830 and that is for all the vachetta. (every piece of leather you can see on the outside of the bag)
