Rumour re: Louis Vuitton Recall?

I don't think anyone has been permitted a cash refund. In-store purchase or credit. It only makes sense from LV's end--any bag they replace yours with costs them far less than its retail pricing, which is what they would be obliged to give you.

I was offered a cash refund on both my SC Bon Marche and the Flore. I was only offered a store credit for the speedy 30 which was strange because like the other two these bags do not exists for an exchange and but the Flore could be remade. Strange considering it was a Parnassea collection piece which was seasonal. Like the Bon Marché and all 3 were seasonal.
 
So that’s my remade flore back and it’s exactly the same as the one I returned. I actually would have sworn it was the same bag but it was only returned at the start of the week by the store. A bag I purchased for my birthday 5 years ago turned up just before my birthday. Out of all the bags I bought for my birthday that time, this one was the one that was clearly meant to be.

I always loved that this bag reminded me of so many different bags and as much as I was sad to see the others go, I’m so happy this one could be resurrected!

I have a few questions, would they give you a replacement/credits if you didn’t purchased the bag in store but second handed? I have the receipts but the name is not under my name. The bag is a reserved pochette Métis from 2017, and there’s cracks on the opening on the canvas. Have anyone have similar experiences?

This would depend on it being deemed faulty. This recall is with regards to the glazing of bags from mid/late 2013 to 2015. There has been some issues with canvas bags I believe but sometimes it’s just wear and tear. However some have had luck on having store credits/replacements on bags they bought preloved. Who’s to say that you didn’t receive the bag as a gift?

Only one way to find out, go to your local store and ask. But having the receipt with original purchaser info is a positive. Good luck and please let us know what happens.:smile:

May I ask you which model of your Parnassea collection LV has recalled? And which issues did the bag have?
Today LV called me to bring in my Alma Parnassea for a quality control. I taked the bag out of the dustbag ( I haven‘t used it since last autumn and I have weared it not more then 10-12 times since I have bought it!!). Now I see that one of the handles is cracked.

It‘s very interesting for me which issues on which bag you have had. Sorry for my English, I hope you understand me!

My bag was on the recall list and my name was not on the receipt. They didn't question me at all. My aunt purchased it for me in Spain and her name was on it.

I had a SC and the Flore. I went to use the handles for the first time ever on the Flore and they were like this. This was the only bag I could have remade.

I got a call from my SA a couple of days ago saying the empriante key pouch I bought in early 2015 has been deemed defective. Have not had any issus with it so I will probably keep it eventhough it is tempting to check something off of my wishlist.

Is this the empteinte key pouch you have? If so, I have the same one I purchased around that time also and did not get a call (I don’t think so at least).
