Just took my new-to-me 2006 monogram Lockit Horizontal to LV in Boston at Copley Place. Here are the repair prices FYI:

Replace all leather: $900
Replace bottom leather: $210
Replace handles: $240
Replace lining: $180
Replace vachetta zipper pull: $30

Estimated time of 6-8 weeks. HTH someone!

I had all leather replaced on 2 vintage bags. The bel air was $600 took about 6 weeks and the petit noe took longer almost 3 months as they were waiting for parts from France was $660 before sales tax.
But it was the wrong strap replaced on the petit noe. They replaced the noe BB strap. So I contacted my CA and sent her the picture and she is ordering the correct strap and will expedite it to me.

Hey hope this is the right forum to post. Does anyone know if they do color match. My vintage galliera pm has been sentaway for repair. I’m only having a vachetta trim replaced but the rest of the vachetta has obviously got a patina since the bag is over 10 years old. I’m just worried it will look silly with trim being much lighter. I know handbag clinics usually do a color match but i never actually had any of my bags repaired by LV.

Your repair will result with the raw, light vachette. They don’t color match unfortunately.

Oh boy... it will look interesting... is there any way to ‚speed up’ darkening process?

I’ve heard of people putting their bag in the sun to “tan” it. I’ve also read about a whole host of other things people do to speed up patina, but I can’t recommend them. It will just take some time

Your Bel Air looks fabulous. I have a vintage one from my birth year and I can't wait to have it sent in.
Did you get a new strap as well?

Youre lucky they replaced the D ring that’s not attached to the tab! Mine just arrived. $120USD for the leather strap and tab replacement. Good as new!

They said it’s additional $60USD to have the D ring replaced. TBD on the cost to replace the zipper.

Ah, please let us know about the zipper cost; I called a local store and they said it would take 6 weeks so I got a little discouraged. It’s not that bad; I’m sure you can only notice it close up, so I wouldn’t pay more than $50 to replace it. Thinking about replacing my strap too...

@ouiouilexiaussi take it to your local store, it should be free to replace. And they would fix on the spot.

I just had to replace one side strap (the one you can tighten to make the bag opening smaller) on my one month old neverfull because my puppy chewed it And it was $60

Thanks! The girl I talked to yesterday said it can’t be done in store, but the girl I just spoke to said they can. I’ll go in next week and get my pochette checked out.

Please let us know what happens. I will be taking in my toilette bag for the same treatment in the next few weeks.

I kept the old strap when I took the bag in and the price includes the new strap which was inside the bag when I took the picture.

Really thinking of getting this 80s model keepall but there is a tear on it. I was wondering if this can be repaired based on your experiences? I had a few repairs done in my previous keepall at LV Store but not sure about this type of tear

 

[wowzers1941]

Since it's not a crack, I'm not sure why they couldn't.
