I have a Bosphore pouch from 2006 that I purchased from the boutique - use it to death because it's compact and a cross body - great for work. The zipper is slightly torn on the fabric part. I took it in a week ago and they quoted $120-240 but no guarantee that it would be repaired at all due to the age of the glazing portion around it. I don't want to give up using this piece and the canvas/vachetta are in very good condition (I take care of my bags). I am contemplating a non LV repair shop. It appears the well known ones are on the East Coast.
I also had a lock with lost keys on a Speedy. They opened the lock with their master key but had no replacements available. They were going to cut off the lock at first but found a key. A new set is $30.
