Hi! I bought this Pochette a week and a half ago and seems like some glue is seeping out? Should I be concerned? Return it? The second pic is magnified. Thanks

Can just take it off?
I’m more concern on the leather and shape of bag. Been to store a few times and there’s really no perfect one there.
Bought mine more than a month and yet to use ☺️ Thinking whether to get a bag insert before use

Thanks for replying!! I didn’t think much of the shape of the bag until you mentioned it,lol! For my untrained eye it looks good…?
I tried removing the glue like spots, gently and is not that easy..For a bag of 3k, this is starting to bother me. I may have to exchange it.

What to think about Pochette Metis monogram’s quality now and before. Is it better to buy pre-loved or new? I have had my eye on this bag for many years and now I regred that I did not buy it eaerlier because of the price increase.

I feel the right flip is a bit high. Could be way photo is taken. Is the white spots glue or light reflection? If not able to rub off you may want to check with the SA.
You must love the bag since it’s going to stay with us for years ☺️
Just my two cents

Hi PM lovers! What do you think about the "new" micro version - empreinte and freshly issued mono print? IMHO it is cute but kind of useless, my cellphone won't fit in, at this time and age you have everything in your phone....Your thoughts?

Cute but way too tiny, and the price is what the original one was only about a year or so ago! You can get a wallet on a chain like the Felicie much cheaper

Cute but not so practical. Probably only a fashion accessory?
If have budget and no $ limit, just get what you love

Too small. And who doesn't carry a phone at least. Unless, of course if you really don't care about the price tag or you use it for special occasions.

I agree with you as well. I do not know how others feel about this, but pandemic really changed my priorities and I just won't spend 2K on a tiny and useless bag, just to carry someone's name and promote the brand. They should pay us! :biggrin: Maybe I am getting old, but I really like the older version of LV including the services, quality, etc. This is just a "moneygrab" to me, I can't help myself, very shallow, no message, nothing valuable in it, only "trendy". The old LV at least tried to make it interesting, and you were actually honored to carry it, in my opinion.

Hi!! Thanks for replying! The white spots are glue. The flap is aligned and I took the picture over a bed :smile: I took it to the store and they told me that it wasn’t defective and that the glue will go away if wiped, and indeed they wiped most of it out. I wasn’t too happy about this. I insisted that a new bag shouldn’t be seeping glue out. They took some pictures and supposedly are going to send it to other team for evaluation. I suspect that I’m not going to hear back…I still love it but it’s kind of blah!
