Got my Sarah wallet back today. It's good as new! Very happy with the reglazing and restitching. It cost me $240 but it's cheaper than a new wallet and this one is sentimental. Came with a new dustbag and box, wrapped with a ribbon. All in all, a great experience. Took just shy of a month.
 
Has anyone got their bag back from a repair and the bag was not returned back in its original condition? Brought my palm springs mini in prestine condition to receive it back squished and canvas crease. They didnt even return back my original dust bag and got a huge drawstring dust bag
 
I recently took in a keepall (bought in 2018) for repairs as the glazing had melted off the handles and shoulder strap and the entire thing was sticky.

The quote was US$470 (I'm in asia) to replace the strap + handles, but LV agreed to waive the charges, no questions asked. 6-8 weeks turnaround. Quite happy with their service tbh, I was expecting to be charged since the bag was purchased 2 years ago.

I just got this from reseller, but I found a deep scratch on the canvas. Can this be fixed at all? If yes, then recommend some placed to get it done pls! TYAView attachment 4907469

There is a YouTube channel where a cobbler does a lot of repairs on LV bags. Bedos Leather Works. I have no affiliation but have seen him work magic on some rough looking bags. There is an email on his page you can request pricing on repairs. If I ever have a bag LV won’t repair I would def trust him based on the videos I have seen.

I had brought a vintage Petite Noe I bought on eBay in for leather change. The bottom was in decent shape and I am sure I would stain it immediately so I just had them do the top and sides. It was $180 and I was quoted about 10 weeks but it came in about 4 weeks and looks great! Very happy with the service and the workmanship.

ETA When the leather was changed the new leather is stamped Made in France on the side. There is no date code however, since it was below the D-ring and that part was changed. I thought this had been a question I read a while ago so just wanted to share.

Beautiful!
 
Beautiful!
Thank you! It is so pristine I am trying to let it sit in the sun a few days before taking it out . I bought it on eBay for about $300, then about $200 for repairs and a new drawstring. I have a light vachetta strap from my Speedyb and also have a monogram strap to use. The original strap has a nice honey patina so I need to wait too use it. But a new looking bag for about $500 but with nice thick canvas!

You can't beat the vintage canvas!
 
$300 for petit noe is a great deal and $180 for the repair is a steal!!! I’m planning to get one on eBay and have LV repair it too! Also after your payment for the repair how long did it took to get your tracking numbers? I paid for my repair for another bag the other day but didn’t get a tracking number and I called CS and they said it was delivered which is confusing.
