i got my mii pm last week. other than my upside lvs on the inside flap that only i would know, its perfect. it doesnt bother me too much as im not reselling it so dont need to justify that its real. i know it is. i dont mind that its not mif. i at least prefer mii than miu but its not a big deal for me either way.

i much rather have something not "defective" that might cause faster wear and tear like stitching issue or others, so im keeping mine. plus after using it for a week ive sort of bonded with it.

Hi Ladies,
I have my PM is made in France last month, but the bag is uneven. The SA told me is normal because by handmade? When it become soft and it will be alright. However, after a month use it still uneven. I called and would like to exchange new one because I'm not happy with this uneven bag.

Now they ordered a new one for me but it is made in italy. Everything is in prefect condition, only the inside LV is upside down (which all other girls have). Other replacement are made in french but not in good condition.

What should I do? Everyone can give me some comments? Should I just keep my MIF or go for the MII?

Very struggling now! Have to back to the store this afternoon... Please help..

Don't settle. You spent a lot of money on it for it to be something you're not happy with. I had a made in France PM that I bought in February this year and I sold it a couple months ago because it did not suit my lifestyle. For the price I paid, I expect perfection. Period.

It just too many drama on this bag!! I go to the store like an million times! I'm just too tired now and thinking just accept the MII one even the inside flap are upside down because it don't really effect the use. But when I thinking I spend such money on it and still can not get a prefect one... Very disappointed with LV...

That's up to you. I don't mind the upside down LV's as long as MII and not MIU. Since it seems like every single MII has the upside down LV's. I have not heard of anyone having right side up LV's on the inner flap for MII. Personal preference

I got a MII with upside down logos inside. I know it would bother me every time i use my bag or open the flap, i changed it with the one MIF. Dont wanna risk any issue in future in case i bring my bag for repair and SA see the upside down logo might think its a fake bag.

It's the hardware oxidizing unfortunately. All we can do is wipe it every so often so it doesn't stain the outer vachetta pieces on the sides of the bag. It sucks to have to do this on a "luxury" bag.

So you mean all canvas with GHW has the same issue on their clasp? I don't owe any canvas so I'm very surprised. Wonder if it happens to the Capucines PM GHW clasp too? It really sucks because not even cheaper high street brand oxidised that super fast.

I'm not sure, but I also noticed it on some of the hardware of my Trevi. It's not so bad on the Trevi since there's no vachetta to worry about.

Good point. Glad you were able to exchange it for a MIF. MIF is getting much harder to find nowadays in North America.

Received my PM, but it is MIU. Disappointed with the packaging for a LV luxury item.
Are buyers returning their bags due to being MIU. I do not see any defects in the bag.
Warm regards,

I'm sorry to hear that [emoji53] . How did they pack your bag? Mine just came in a dustbag and box, with the leather cording. All of my items come like that. What's more disappointing to me is when you purchase a Chanel item inside Nordstroms, they don't give you the Chanel shopping bag, camelia or ribbon, UNLESS you purchase a classic flap. Idk, I'm a sucker for packaging.

I have a PM, bought in December, sitting in my closet unused. I'm wondering if I should sell it b/c it might give me problems, or if I should just enjoy it and not look back. I'm sorry to all the ladies (and gents?) on this forum who have had problems...I'm wondering if this is a selection of just the folks who have issues b/c we have this place to talk, or if the high number is more representative of the general population of owners. Hope that makes sense! I'm having trouble 'splaining myself.

If it's been sitting in your closet since December, I would sell it and put that money towards something you would use. [emoji4] just my opinion. I also bought mine out of impulse, I haven't used it much since I bought it in Aug.2015. I love the design of the bag but I use my other bags more and I never reach for the pm, it will be leaving my collection.
