I have same issue. I just got my LV Pochette Metis mongram today 15 May, delivered to my home after chancing availability to purchase online last week. Bag sides glazing, stitches all ok but only issue is the mongram pattern are not 100% diagionally coherent on bottom end left and right side on the front of bag and not . Belt strap ends are also not coherent mongram pattern at both ends when put side by side. Is this normal? I worry it seems returned/rejected piece earliee as it is produced in France in Jan 2020. Possible?
Does anyone recently broughy same bag and face sane issues? Can share?

I called to try to exchange as soon as possible but client service says all bags were all out delivered and no replacement piece . Either i refund it or i patiently wait if any lucky star to have stock in next 30 days. If I refund, chances I will never get my hands to buy this monigram again..
 
Here are my photos

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. Can you send pictures of it?
I’m also struggeling whether to keep or return the bag.
It is really beautiful overall - except on the bottom left side. Whether the shape is OK, I don’t know....
I am affraid if I return it I will either get a more faulty one or none at all as they are so hard to find and never available in the store.
 
Hi!
It’s normal, don’t worry!
And I share also here my experience, hoping to help you.
My first PM has an issue in the handle (you find the pic here back in last pages).
Therefore I decided to buy another one and return one of the two.
I made a comparison and I found two things (see the pictures):
- differente closures (may I ask you how is yours, like 1 or 2?)
- in the second one the black glazing it’s not uniform
This to tell you that it’s very hard to find a perfect one.

Ps: Where can I read when the bag has been produced?

Thank you so much for calming my nerves ❤️
It is exactly what I thought: that because it is handmade it is so hard to find that “perfect” bag.
My lock looks like this:

Yours is abit of glazing issue.

Mine is monogram patterns not symmetrical across the same on front and back, at the sides of bag. If I do put my bag on table, anyone look at it can see its obvious.

My pochette metis in black color LV prints on bag is prefect. Thats why i am thinking why they give me such quality. I am concerned if they give me returned or rejected piece since produced in Jan in France before Covid situation.

You can find the serial number in the back pocket. It is slightly hard to find. There you can ser where and when it’s made.
Mine is made in France in April 2020.

I attach here once again the handle issue of the first one.

Yes, as you can see, they all have somehow something.
When the issue is not serious, I guess that the only thing to do is to accept the bag how it is and go ahead.
