Damaged Metis Hobo Strap. (Bag purchased in April 2013). Took it in for repair yesterday. Was informed by SA and Manager they don't do reglazing on Metis straps (including PM) and was offered a FREE replacement strap instead. FYI, The replacement Metis Hobo strap's width is identical to Pochette Metis Strap,( my old 2013 MH strap was wider in width, thick & stiff) the replacement piece, however, was thin but "pliable" which at first, felt flimsy, but surprisingly comfortable on the shoulder.

Can you post a pic? $240 for both handles is not bad at all. I thought it was going to be a lot more. If your handles aren't too dark that it's almost black then I wouldn't do it. If it is then I will definitely have it done.

What kind of speedy do you have? Because the handles to a speedy in the monogram is 70 per handle which is 140.00 for both.

I will post a pic as soon as I can. My handles aren't too dark, maybe I will wait to change them.

I have a regular speedy. I guess maybe the SA quote me for the handles and the chaps? I will take it to another store to verify. If it's only 70 per handle I will do it.

Yes thats should be right for all the work will be 240.00 plus tax. If you take it in don't take a dustbag your bag will come back with a New Dustbag. :D
 
My Favorite MM in Mono is in repair to replace the brass ring that holds the strap because it was turning silver. Zero charge. Upon replacing the ring, the small vachetta tab was ruin and had to replaced..Zero charge. However, the left side of the bag now has a vachetta tab that has patina, so both sides won't match. The warehouse called to say they can replace it so that the bag looks symmetrical. Price? $105.😖 I get it I guess because they are basically rebuilding my bag, but geez. Just wanted to share. Enjoy your day LV Lovers! 😘
 
Is it possible to get some leather parts replaced on a bag even though the bag is no longer in production? The leather parts I'm talking about is on the side on my Shelton messenger bag, where the strap is conected to the bag. I haven't seen these on any other bag. Will they make this particular leather part by hand, or do they pick from a warehouse? If the bag is discontinued, I suppose they don't have this piece in their warehouse..

They custom made parts to fix one of my bags. It can be done. Just depends on your relationship with your SA, I think, and if you're willing to pay for the repair if it's not free.
 
LV repaired my favorite bag, my Ikat, for free! They no longer have the parts so they had to custom make them-- they replaced all the leather and hardware, so she looks new. I'm very pleased.

Hi,

I bought a sully mm pre-loved for a good deal so I am considereding replacing some parts if it is still a good deal (in comparison to buying the bag brand new). Does anyone know:

1)how much it is to replace the circle loop hardware? It has started to turn silver because of the other hardware piece turning/rubbing on it when the handle is moved back and forth.

2)how much to replace the leather handle? It's wrinkled and somewhat dirty. I understand all sully handles will wrinkle so I'm not sure if there is a point to replacing it once I give it a good cleaning.

3) leather tab on the zipper pulls. They are the dirtest part of the purse, understandably. I heard LV replaces zippers for free, does this include the leather tab?

I don't know the answer to 1 & 2. All I can share is LV replaced my leather tab for me for free 🙂
 
I just had the vachetta on my Cabas Mezzo completely redone - handles, chaps and the entire bottom of the bag. It was pricey - $840 but I basically got a new bag. Since they don't sell the Mezzo anymore and I use it all the time, I thought it was worth it in this case. Very happy with it! :smile1:

It looks perfect!!! If you use it all the time its worth it. Did they replace the date code with a new date? I thought I read somewhere that they do that. thx and congrats!
