They usually don't quote via email or phone. They want you to bring the bag or mail it in.
Oh, I didn't know that. I was trying to avoid driving to LV or spending money on shipping if they won't make the repair.
Does anyone know the cost of replacing all the leather on a speedy 25. Mine has had it. Bought it a decade ago before I knew how to take of nice things. I'm thinking it'll probably be more cost effective to buy a preloved (from someone who knew how to take care of nice things lol)
You can buy the strap likely no problem. Just bring the bag with you. Sometimes the SA wants to see the bag. The receipt doesn't matter. Good luck!
Yes. It cuts down on the growing number of people who buy real straps, hardware, or accessories for fake bags. Always bring the bag with you.
Thanks so much, I'll try my local store. It's 35 miles from my place so it's like a task to go there. I wish they made it easier by letting us order online.
Thanks again and happy holidays
I finally got my insolite wallet back and I was charged $175 for reglazing it and few stitches on the sides .. Now I have a different problem! I'm very unsatisfied with the repair job ! It seems they clued the d-ring part and the little piece that keeps it attached but also they kinda pressed it down and now you can see the shape of the little piece ! I don't know what to do because I took it back and I don't think they can repair it again and I doubt they will offer a solution for it since the wallet is 3 years old even though it's in excellent condition almost as good as new! Here a picture to that shows the bad job on my opinion 
Hi.
Last week I went to pick up my Tivoli that was sent to repair to Paris due to a little crack on the canvas on the left side of the bag. When I took it to the boutique looking for suggestions on how to repair it myself, I was really surprised the RM told me that as the LITTLE crack was on one of the sides which is an indipendent piece, they coul exchange it entirely ...
Well now I understand why LV never repairs bags with canvas issues!!!
The result is AWFULL!!! the piece of canvas which has been changed is a completely different color, ad it's definitely stiffer ... The bag looks FAKE!
I've been trying to refuse to to take it back home but the RM told me that they could not fix it because this was it and that I should be grateful that they repaired it since they had to do a major work and that with time (?) the colur will change and bla bla bla... I was so frustrated!
I think l will never use this bag again. ��

Got an answer to my question. I emailed LV to get an idea of the repair cost. Their response: $60 for the top trim and $665 for all the leather, but the actual cost would be determined by a store.
Getting it actually done might not be easy. I scrubbed the sticky interior off my bucket pm so all that's left is the soft cloth lining. The top trim was in bad shape so my husband took my bag to LV today. An SA told him she would take it to the repair specialist, came back, and told him that LV couldn't repair my bag; they can only repair bags made by LV.
Lee authenticated the bag before I bought it. Maybe the SA thought it was fake since the interior was cloth instead of the regular lining? I might try it with a different store. Kind of discouraging though.
