Hi, I am hoping maybe you guys can help. I purchased this bag from eBay and am waiting on Lee on the authenticate thread, but in the mean time could anyone post a picture of the bottom of their bag. This 2014 bag with authenticity in question!! Has where the canvas is stitched on the bottom of the bag doesn't have any glazing sort of a raw canvas edge?Also does the back zipper come all the way to the end? Last question are you able to pull the lining of the bag out or is it completely sewn down? I will attach pictures to try and show what I mean. Was just wondering if anyone can post a pic of theirs or let me know if theirs looks like that. Thank u!!! stressing out about my purchase[emoji17]

View attachment 3415534 When I first got it, it came in a drawer box very different from the ones I've seen on YouTube. The bottom had a little red tape at the bottom of the bag.. I inspected the bag thouroly and everything else was good. Called the 866 number to LV and asked if I should be alarmed of the red tape? The agent was really rude and told me " well if you don't like it just send it back" so then I emailed them.... They got back to me and said that it was normal, for me just to pull it out. What do you all think? Am I crazy. ? Lol. I think after this peeling nonsense I'm switching brands...


Yeah that peeling is unacceptable! You definitely are not crazy. I'm just amazed at all the defects. That red tape would cause me to raise an eyebrow too. I'd think that it was a marking of something wrong in that area. At this point, who knows?! LV needs to get their quality people up to par. I don't blame you if you ditch the brand. I've thought about it too but I'm such a sucker and so far they've been helpful when I had issues with my first PM which was the original model. I hope they can give you another one in great condition if that's an option you choose to do. I do love this bag. I just wish I could use it without worrying that something is wrong with it.

I'm assuming this is the old model? Your pics look similar to the original model I had which was also made in 2014. The zipper doesn't go all the way to the end and I think it's so it doesn't hit against the canvas. I never tried to see if the lining could completely come out. From what I remember, it was stuck into the bag if that makes sense. I hope this helps some.
