I think if you wanted a new bag, you should have bought it new. Things happen as you own a bag and you need to expect that...
My Neverfull has not aged well at all...I think it's just symptomatic of the thin straps. Also I find the weight of the pocket (even empty) causes the top of the bag to sag on one side - looks terrible! I think the neverfull has some design flaws...namely the silly pocket!
yup, usually the SA will put the blame on you. otherwise, the SA will tell you that there isnt anything wrong with the bag.
i always manage to get an exchange if i insist. i just told the SA that i bought such an expensive bag and i'm uncomfortable with these flaws therefore i insist an exchange. what can she do?! haha. evetually, the SA exchange for me. the SA should always remember that without people like us who buy from them and they will be jobless by now.
Just take it in and have them look at it. Worst thing they can say is no.
Take the bag and the receipt. For all LV knows the person bought the bag for you as a gift. I would NOT state you bought it from the secondary market, for they will be less prone to bend a little for you as far as perhaps exchanging it. They will in the very least send it out for repairs, tell them you would appreciate a replacement. Most LV boutiques that I have bought from have a 6 month policy, meaning if the item is 6 months or less in age they replace, more than 6 months of age they send for repairs. So it is important you take the receipt with you otherwise to determine the 6 month time frame, the SAs use the date code inside the bag! Good Luck
I don't think you should complain or scream and shout enough to get an exchange. Customer's these days think they can get away with murder because they have a receipt. The bag is technically used it's like exchanging a used dress for a new one.
SA: this dress smells like BO and has blood stains on it.
customer; yeah, but i've got the receipt and the tag is still attached. GIMMIE A NEW DRESS!
ok i got carried away LOL. Since the bag is under warranty i guess you have to accept the fault and have it sent to repairs, hey at least you dont have to pay for it.
p.s. if you care about maintaining a good relationship with your SA i urge you not to make a big fuss for a new bag. He/She will remember the manner you conduct yourself and im sure it will affect the way he/she will help you in the future.
i totally agree, they would be jobless, i often wonder why they have 8 staff empty shop, but all seem to busy to help. you go back and talk to them, the very best of luck, i'm not good at complainingyup, usually the SA will put the blame on you. otherwise, the SA will tell you that there isnt anything wrong with the bag.

I agree about the dress part totally, but its not a dress its a hardly used bag. I cant understand why we have to be sooo nice to sa's, i dont mean be rude of course, but suck up, i'm sorry no can do. Everybody should be treated the same, what ever you buy, what ever you spend, and then the world would be a better place, thats my 2 cents worth, and hopfully the OP will have a happy outcomeI don't think you should complain or scream and shout enough to get an exchange.
