Makes sense. USA doesn’t charge unless it’s over a certain amount. Maybe your country is the same?

The limit is around 12,5 usd (in danish kroner). And that is including shipping.

I just talked to my mom today and ahe doesn’t want a strap that can be used on the shoulder, only crossbody. So that makes it a lot easier to get a LV tomauit her :) but thank you very much for your suggestion :)
 
Off to NY with my 20+ yr old speedy!

I just recently purchased a preloved Speedy B 30 in Monogram. It is a 2012 MIF bag, in great condition and the price was good. I had noticed a marking near the heat stamp. A round mark but I did not think too much about it as I knew the bag was authentic as I knew both the seller and, for peace of mind, I also had ProAuthenticators authenticate the bag. ProAuthenticators confirmed the bag to be authentic and advised the round mark indicated an LV employee purchase. I asked ProAuthenticators if this negatively affected the future resale value and they said no. At first, I thought this was a good thing as it is further evidence the bag is authentic. But, now I am second guessing whether I should return the bag. Will this be a negative should I later sell the bag? I love the bag. Don’t really have plans to sell it. I don’t want to be overthinking this. Thoughts?

I wouldn’t worry about it. The bag looks great. Enjoy it. Most likely you will use it for years. Speedys are workhorses. :smile:

You're overthinking it.

Way over thinking. Looks beautiful and a great price probably. Keep it.
 
image.jpeg Here is my xmas gift to me , a 1995 speedy 30. I cleaned her up and think the "cooking smell" is finally gone with a bunch of my perfume sprayed papers sitting inside.! Seller said no smell but she obviously was nose blind! I dont cook so not a fan of deep fry smells. I also made my own base shaper by cutting up bristol board from dollar store! Wearing her tomm!
