Has anyone received an answer on what happens if the items were purchased preloved? I have a couple of Sofia Coppola’s that are from that time frame that were purchased from Yoogi’s and Fashionphile. One of them is the SC Bon Marche that was $3k plus even from Yoogi’s so I’ll be super sad if they can’t do anything.

I suggest that you present it as "I received this bag as a gift" rather than saying it was bought preloved. My advice for what it's worth!

I was told, and you can refer to my previous post (maybe 4 pages back), that a purchase receipt from Louis Vuitton will be required whether you are the original owner or not. Is there anything wrong with your bags atm?
 
Probably the last available price? Just a guess.

One of the scenarios I considered. Thanks for answering :smile:

Wow that’s a lot of empreinte pieces... I own a wallet and key pouch, I’ll be sure to check them today. Did they say which wallet? TIA!

Yeah it is alot! LOL! I love the leather. I actually have some other pieces but they're newer so they apparently aren't an issue. At least not yet... I have the Curieuse wallet.

Yes, the handles on the Bon Marche are sticky and dented. I’m not sure that I used it even once since I purchased it. [emoji31]

You can only try and see what they say. Keep it away from you're clothing and anything else it may stick to though as it does not come off. I am still waiting on a decision about my bag, but I thought worse case scenario would be that I have to get two bandeau and cover the handles, or fix it myself. Good luck and let us know what happens.

With reading back on all these I went to check up on a bag I bought about a year ago.. it’s the epi speedy. I notice there was a crinkle on the top of the bag under the handle that I don’t see anywhere else around the bag. Can anyone tell me if this just normal and I’m just being super anal.. but spending as much as we do on these bag I expect them to hold up better.

I also just checked a wallet I bought a few years back and notice a cracks in the fold. Given that I rarely use my wallet. I have a few others I go back and forth from but I’m starting to see how some of this LV items aren’t holding up like the ones I bought 10 years ago..

Can someone tell me this is normal or defect before I contact the Louis Vuitton SA?

Thanks so much for helpful forum.. I’ve learned quite a bit here.

That’s pretty typical of Épi leather on unstructured bags. If in doubt, take it to your local store.

If this is less than five years old, they are likely to exchange. In particular if the wallet is in good condition.
