Can anyone please show what's the thickest paperback that will fit in the Metis? I keep looking at what's in my bag pics and videos on the net but couldn't find any that has books in it. Thank in advance.

joined the reverse club! Any thoughts? I think the pattern is uniform and the lock is center. I think the reverse print is a bit light and bottom line is a bit wavy though.

It looks great! Congratulations! The lock is a teensy fraction of a millimeter off center but mine is like that too and I'm not bothered... it's not really that noticeable. The bottom looks perfect.

I'm considering purchasing a preloved infrarouge... is this bag really as bad as some people make them out to be? It looks really gorgeous and I missed buying this in store.

Thanks! I was able to purchase online when it popped up one morning before work. Mine was made in the USA week 23 2017.

I wonder if it's easier to get the reverse in the US since it's made in the US (no import/export fees for LV?).

I received my 4th reverse Metis today from online. The previous three bags were either returned or in the process for returns. They all had a defect ( wrong leather on the handle or misalignment) so I kept ordering online since this bag is no longer available in store. I am so glad I did not give up because this time I didn't find any flaws and according to the date code, this was made just 2 weeks ago so I am pretty sure this is not one of the returned ones.
Girls, keep trying if you really want one. They are still manufacturing this model one at a time and it is available on line sporadically. You just have to check frequently and get it as soon as it appears online.

On a side note I would also be in heaven if this metis was ever produced in the Damier Ebene print ....

I hope I get one made in 2017 too. I don't care where it's made as long as it looks great!

Omg. Ebene will be awesome!

That's my worry, getting a returned item. I hope they realized that they should not sell anymore the returned bags.

I placed an order for a reverse PM on Friday and the status "submitted" hasn't changed since then. Does anyone else experience the same? I just hope that they will fulfill my order

Mine was Pending Order Validation for a couple days and now it changed to Order In Preparation. Just be patient. It does take time. I was a little bit worried too.

Apparently, my order didn't go through. I called CS and they told me that it was a glitch in the system; I was able to order a bag but none was in stock.

hopefully it works out for you. i'm sure they won't just keep taking your returns - they probably flag an account after X times... i assume. hope this one is perfect:smile:
