I sent my Monogram petit noe for repair(change all vacheta) on April 18, 2022, quoted and charged for $660, I just received my purse in beautiful like new condition a week ago… yes, almost 5 months… but so worth the wait.

Hi! Just wanting to get your advice on the canvas on my metis. It looks like it's ever so slightly lifting near the glazing. Could it get worst and eventually the canvas could start ripping? It's a tiny issue at the moment and hard to see in the photos but worried it might get worst. Bag is fro 2020 and was purchased preloved and I don't have a receipt. No store in my state so I would have to send it away.

I just picked up my 1998 Deauville. It took over 7 months to get her back, but she was worth the wait. She looks brand new. Here is the before and after. Another great thing about her is that my laptop easily fits inside!

I also had my 1994 speedy with me that I had the zipper pull replaced on, but it wasn't at LV, and it was not vachetta but treated leather...this has always annoyed me, and I never asked LV about it because I had always heard they would not work on bags that had work done elsewhere. Anyway, the repair specialist offered to fix it for $45! He will do it himself, he doesn't need to send it out. I can pick it up this Friday!! So excited!

I also just had this done in store to my Mono Speedy 30 (got the notice today that I can pick her up!) and was told $45. Perhaps the policy has changed? Or it only applies to certain bags? To be fair, mine is a 1997, so I'm more than happy to only need $45 worth of repairs :yes: Had originally planned to replace the gusset tabs, as well, so all of those pieces would match. The ability to have it returned to me in less than a week - it actually took only 2 days - changed my mind, though!

last month, i had a toiletry 26 have the zipper pull replaced in less that a week's time also. if it's just the pull and not the part that closes/opens the zipper teeth, they usually do not charge.

The repair specialist told me he has to take off the metal that holds the zipper together and the metal zipper pull on the pull tag to replace it. He said he was going to replace that metal zipper pull as well.

For me, the big win here is I have never even thought about asking LV to replace it after hearing that they won't touch pieces that have been "fixed" elsewhere, similar to them not doing any work on bags that the canvas has cracked.

I will happily pay the $45 because as much as I have loved this speedy, I was super mad at myself that I didn't bring it into LV in the first place to get it fixed, and the treated leather pull on my bag always bugged me.

ahhh then yes, their quote was accurate. taking off the slider usually has an accompanying charge. and once it has been touched by non LV artisans the bag is considered "altered" and they won't touch it. i brought in another toiletry 19 to have the zipper track replaced but it was old and had canvas cracks towards the top so they wouldn't repair. i found a replacement on ebay for less than the cost of what the repair would be so i bought that instead.

i recently bought a vintage keepall 45 that has the same zipper pull as the speedy and the leather tab of course has torn off. hopefully they'll be able to replace the tab in-store since the zipper is still intact and functional. i'll be careful not to actually pull on the leather when replaced to avoid it tearing again in the future.

Does anyone know how much it may currently cost to get the trim and side cinches replaced on a Neverfull MM? I just bought one pre-loved and the seller just got the shoulder straps replaced- so I’m wondering if it’s worth sending it in after I get it to get everything else replaced :)
