Repair/Replacement Costs - List

[Camaro Chic]

LV told me no, they don't stock that purple material any longer.

I meant like put a different kind of lining in it... alcantara, canvas... i thought they probably could though it would probably cost a few hundred dollars since the bag would need to be deconstructed and rebuilt. But I'd try using the scrub brush and sponge I mentioned above first and save some money! Good luck lady

I taped off the vachetta and used one of those really rough on one side kitchen sponges, dampened, and dried the lining periodically. It was a lot of elbow grease but it worked. I had to periodically use a scrubby brush for dishes on tough spots and wipe out the gunk with a towel. Hope this helps.

Very much so! Now I have to just work up the nerve to do it. There really isn't another option, unless I go the cobbler route. LV won't reline in other materials. They will only re-do the lining if the originally spec'd material is on hand. Or at least I'm told by my pal at the N Mich Ave store around the corner where I live.

What's wrong with the plate btw?

There are a few I'm looking at that are scratched. I'm trying to figure out if it's cheaper to buy preloved then pay to get the plate replaced, or just buying the bag brand new.

Last time I checked the plate replacement is less than 100.

I called LV customer service and got a price quote for my NF MM, the SA quoted me for the leather trim $60, both shoulder strap $180, and if you want all the leather change, it would cost $570. I'm thinking......

I called and it's $60. No receipt required, just as long as they have the parts.

I'm not sure if this goes here, but how much does it cost for an Eva strap, long enough for a crossbody?

That is not as bad as I thought. I was just wondering. Thanks for the info. Anyone with an older neverfull with cracks in their straps but have not replaced them, are they just as strong as when they bought it new?. Have not read anything about straps breaking due to cracks and age. Maybe it's just aesthetics.

I purchased the ebene strap for $70 and the vachetta one for $105 that was almost 2 years ago. I ordered them as replacement parts. Mautto.com has leather straps for less you can also try them. Hth!

I recently replaced my DE Eva plate for $30. Took 4 weeks to get her back. Now she's new again!

That sounds like a great price to me! I have a DE Eva and may get that done at some point. Thanks for the Intel!

Can anybody help.

If you are flying out of heathrow, can you buy from duty free if you are only travelling to other European countries - or does it have to be international travel?

It has to be international travel (outside of Europe) as you will need to present your boarding pass.
