I just got my bucket gm back from repair and it was $390 as well. $150 for relining and then I opted to buy the interior pochette bc I didn't have one so that was $240. You're going to love your bag once it's repaired....looking forward to your pics
Mystery solved! They must be getting me the new interior pochette. They didn’t tell me - just quoted $390 though I did ask for the pochette to be repaired so that’s probably why. I have the original pochette but it is also sticky and completely unusable. Sad because that beautiful vintage, thick canvas on it is perfect. But nonetheless, I’m excited either way. I’ll post pics when I get her!
I remember seeing that post and if memory serves me, I think it was around $5-550 for the replacement of all the GM vachetta and new interior but I don’t think that included a pochette.
I wanted to pass along the information I was given today and hopefully this is helpful information to everyone. I brought my almost 10 year old Neverfull MM damier ebene into the store today for replacement straps and replace the top trim..the straps cost $240 and the top trim is $60.

Thanks for the info. That's not as bad as I was fearing. Was thinking of getting that done for my Neverfull MM DE.
Hi everyone, a few weeks ago I asked for your advice about my Pochette accessories about a replacement zipper pull which I can conform costs £0.00 as of today when I asked in London's Bond Street store (which btw has the most friendly repairs lady ever! think her name was Lohe) anyway, the total cost of a replacement zipper (including Vachetta tag and teeth and pull etc) was £144. I felt on a 17year old bad that wasn't too bad, but I didn't want it doing as it was not actually broken. When I dropped it off on the last day of January I assumed that was all that would be done with my bag. I heard nothing for three weeks accept a text I received yesterday to tell me that my bag was back in Bond Street and ready for my pickup. When I picked it up they had replaced the whole zipper which I assumed would cost me £144 for a service I didn't approve of doing as per my quote (see attached pics). but, to my total delight Louis Vuitton didn't charge me a penny as I hadn't had any contact to ask me if they could change the whole zipper and not just the zipper pull, as mentioned before it wasn't on my quote. I am in total shock, I thought they would demand I pay the whole fee, but thank goodness they didn't! the SA was in total shock that I hadn't been contacted and therefore said they couldn't charge me, no quibble at all they didn't even ask me!
They also replaced the D ring that's not attached to the Vachetta tab which I also think is very good, alongside giving me a modern dust bag as-well.
Finally, the bag has the dreaded cracking (on the canvas attached to the d ring that's not on the Vachetta) but they still did the repair!
Do have a look at the attached pictures, the bag looks brand new!
what do you think? I'm still speechless!

I just purchased a vintage LV Bucket Bag gm from Japan to replace a Neverfull gm I gave to my daughter. . Should be here in a few weeks. Once I see the condition for myself, I'll decide on full vachetta replacement or just the lining. I'll post when I receive it. I just watched a Youtube video where the girl got her bag interior replaced and it was only $150!
For those who might be interested: zippy wallet: reglazing Euro 100,00. In Italy,
Trim cost is 60. I did the handles and trim on my Neverfull MM for 240.
I tried to do a search in this thread but my query timed out. I have an old Speedy 30 I purchased from Japan. I tried to clean the vachetta but the handles and the zipper pull are cracked. The tabs are fine and the piping is ok (a little rough but no cracking and intact). Anyway, to keep all the leather looking the same, I was wondering how much it would cost to replace the vachetta on the entire bag. TIA!
