The (Pochette) Metis Club

[Corknut]

I just received my PM in monogram from my online order, so happy to join the club!! It's a good thing I checked for known issues here though, since the clasps on my strap are also different (different colour and etchings), and I was so excited to finally get this bag I would have missed it entirely if I wasn't checking for it specifically.

The alignment on the back is also slightly off, the bottom pattern row tilts up a bit on the right side, but the front is perfect so I think I'll keep the bag and just try to exchange the straps. Mine was made in France, 50th week of 2019.

FYI Brookfield Place NYC
Mono PM about 30 minutes ago

No, Cerise was bright. It is a very elegant shade of red.

I LOVED Cerise, is it still around?

 

[Grande Latte]

I can't decide on which PM color to get and need help and opinions! It's between the mono, reverse mono and the new tourerelle color. I bought the new taupe color but have since spent days reconsidering. Help!

Canvas and Empreinte are two separate categories imo. I think you need one in each category.

The glazing is coming off of both sides of the flap. Do you think they will repair it or give me store credit? It was made in 2018. I thought they had corrected that problem that year but I guess not. I also have always had a bandeau wrapped around the handle flap.

Hi Guys,

so I just joined the club and was able to order the PM Reverse, I really do love the shape! When I got it home I immediately noticed this hump of canvas behind the flap (it seems
Like there is too much canvas and it is bubbling) is this normal. I took it into my local boutique and the repair specialist took a few photos & said she would get back to me today (Friday). My bag has made 50th week of 2019.

Yesterday I was able to order another to compare.

Agreed!

Ouch. When did you get your bag? Sorry, I have no idea if LV would do anything about this.

I’ve had her for about 10 months. My SA told me to bring it in to see maybe we can condition it hoping for good result

Mine also looks like yours. I will be curious to see what they say as I’ve been wondering if it was normal or not. I didn’t bring it back because it’s perfect everywhere else. Thanks for sharing this.

Hi everyone . Need yr advice. I managed to snag a reverse PM online . Was so happy as it’s so hard to find . It arrived today n immediately I felt something wasn’t right. The side corners sewing was bumpy n inside the fabric sewing was... terrible. It’s supposed to be brand new but when I opened the flap, the compartment already look stretched out. I’m not sure to return or accept pls help me with some advice. It’s a made in France bag. Am I too picky??

thanks everyone

Unfortunately no, it is discontinued. Scarlet is still available.

Ok, so my theory is they put “defective” in some way bags online and the perfect ones go to the boutique. I had a few of them and upon arrival one was like that, but mine was made in USA. I returned it. If they know their bags are defective and they don’t want to put it in their boutiques they should sell it with a discount. They don’t so we should only accept a bag that we are satisfied with. They are not so hard to come by. After some stalking PM reverse appear at least once a week. I stocked them so much. I was able to get 4 of them but returned them each time because of defects and finally I know this bag is not for me. I didn’t also love that color on me. Once I went to the boutique to pick up my PSM and just asked if they have PM reverse and she said they did. This one was perfect but I took my PSM home with me.

 

[speedturner]

thanks for your advice.

I guess my head is telling me to return but the heart is wanting to keep it . Over here, the reverse is hardly avail unlike the US website. It’s ridiculous.. the date code is DR0220, which makes it fresh from France like last week??? !!!!!! So I’m guessing it shouldn’t be a boutique return lying around for some time.

Hmmm... if I return it’s back to stalking again

Hi,
I‘m sorry that you finally found one and it‘s not what you have hoped for. May I ask which website you ordered it from if not US? I am stalking as well and I never see it available.
thank you!
I don‘t think yours can be a return with that datecode... It is probably just not made as „perfect“
