Finally able to order online after receiving horrible quality in October initial release and then LV cancelled exchange order. THIS is what LV sends me :annoyed: NO KEYS. Strap attached and smudged. Can’t exchange in store because not available in any Texas store. CS says “maybe store can help with lock”. My reply—“ LV is supposed to be a luxury brand house why would you even send this to a customer.’ Returned and will stalk website again.

Sorry that happened to you. I have been stalking too And was able to order. It arrives today. If it’s MI USA I’ll be returning. Just a personal preference. I’m in Oregon. It’s been availability regularly on the website. so you should be able to order again without too much trouble.

Thank you. It was MI USA. I prefer MI France but it was supposed to be my first speedy and I was willing to compromise. Small suggestion, film your unboxing. I did just in case. I will keep stalking the website and my wishlist.
 
Some more pics
Hi there,

Thanks to this forum, specifically this thread I decided I needed this bag! :heart: I was able to order it within the week Idecided I needed it. However after further inspection I was wondering if you ended up returning yours as I SWEAR I have the same bag As the pictures you posted. It’s MIF and the back handle lays wonky and has creases. I didn’t inspect the strap as I‘m not as critic le of those. Do you mind if I ask if you ended up returning your bag?
 
And here are my concerns, the handle on the back is wonky and on the strap there are a few cotton threads loose. Not so much obvious in the pic, but irl it is obvious. What is everyone’s thoughts? Will it get worst? Is it liveable? Also the handles are wrinkled but I think most are like that? Thanks for all your comments
Congrats! So excited for you!:yahoo:
I think overall your bag looks great. The wrinkles on the handle are not bad at all imo. I have wrinkles on my handle and I'm ok with that.
When I first saw my handle at the store, it was quite crooked. The SA just pushed it to one side to make it look better, and it has stayed straight since then.
Re the loose thread on the strap, I think an LV SA can fix that. Can you take it in to see what they can do to the strap?

OH GOSH! Sooo sorry. I was hoping to glom some joy if you were happy with your bag. We must be getting uninspected returned bags :annoyed:

Now I’m having second thoughts.:hrmm: I REALLY love this bag. And if I wasn’t a member of this forum I’d never have noticed the creases in the handles and after reading back through a few threads it seems as if it’s not uncommon. And more importantly it really doesn’t bother me. What I REALLY wanted was the black strap and made MIF. The wonky handle I’ve read can be straightened out after use. So maybe I will keep her. :angel:

Trust YOUR instincts. If you love the bag by all means keep it. This forum provides great insight from experienced buyers. if it was just a lock issue i would have kept bag. But smudged strap, popped stitches, and deep indent in vachetta on two of the handle attachments….no LV can have it back.

I agree. I love the insight provided by the forums. Priceless really. After further examination I’m keeping it. The back handle lays flat now. I think it just needed to breathe after shipping.

Now I need to sell my Chanel before hubby discovers new handbag. :P
Hope you are able to get your hands on one soon!
 
That stitching wouldn't be acceptable to me. Mine isn't like that. Please don't settle for that kind of workmanship, especially for the prices they are asking nowadays.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the bag I received. I took it back yesterday to see if it could be repaired. The service department told me repairs currently take 6-8 months to be returned and the deep dents on the canvas could not be repaired. He offered me an exchange since he had another one in the store. The handles looked okay with no dents and there are no deep dents along the two sides of the zipper on one end, so I thought... that’s great! So I exchanged it. Not sure why I didn’t notice this at the store, maybe I was just fixated on the previous areas of concern, but this one has little round dents along the stitching on the vachetta. It appears like maybe whatever was holding the vachetta in place while stitching it was too tight and left these imprints? Is this a common occurrence on the speedy vachetta? Is this acceptable?

I’m sorry to hear your first speedy arrived in such unacceptable condition. I can imagine being so excited to finally get the bag you’ve been waiting for, only be disappointed and have to wait to find another. I hope you’ll be able to get one in great condition without issues soon! Maybe it will be MIF too! Could you explain your suggestion to film the unboxing? I’ve never thought to do that and didn’t know I needed to. When do you think it would be necessary? Thank you!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I‘m really disappointed but I’m rather stubborn so I am NOT giving up on getting this bag. The ordeal is now in its 7th month :biggrin: I preordered for initial launch, received damaged bag, sent back for exchange, exchange cancelled after 3 months, refund took two months, got “lucky” stalking website which led us to today. WHEW! Moral of the story is it is best to have an SA. But I’m not a big purchaser of LV. I prefer YSL.

i video the unboxing because the shipping box was damaged. I have received an LV box that had been opened then retaped. I guess a bag charm was not worth stealing:hrmm:

I ended up keeping mind as it would be too hard to get another one and I read a lot of others had wonky handle too and slightly wrinkled so kept it. Sorry to hear abt the one you got. Hopefully you can get another?
