Doesn't LV repair an authentic preloved item, though? I have tried buying new, but I've had no luck. I just won a preloved PM in excellent condition that was made in April 2017. I feel like I'm having regrets about buying that bag now. What if it's fake? I didn't have a chance to get it authenticated in the forum before bidding because the auction was 1 hour away from ending when I saw it. I've seen so many real PMs and fake ones, and everything with the bag looked good to me, but fakes are getting soo good nowadays.
