And here's another. Tried to capture all angles.
I'm a fan of restoring vintage LV pieces. I have done it several times. I believe it is worth it if the work will be done right and you will enjoy the piece. I have a vintage Alma that I restored every time I carry it people say they like it better than the new ones. Besides your aunt gave it to you so it holds sentimental value which I think makes it worth it. :graucho:S
 
How sweet of you.thanks..i was really planning to keep this, just a little worried about the money i'll have to shell out if this is not the real thing coz i am used to seeing 8 card compartments for this kind of french wallet.will you be able to tell if this is authentic though?

My Curieuse wallet in aurore! I've had this wallet for two months now and it is my absolute favorite. I use the removable pouch for cash, a spare hair tie, and a couple bobby pins (because what girl isn't ever digging around for those, right? :p). If I'm planning on using a small purse I just throw my cards in the pouch and stuff that into my bag.

Based on my vintage pieces it appears to be. But I am no expert. I have taken mine to LV directly and had no problem as they have all been processed for repairs and returned so they are authentic. The only thing I will say is that it can have no and I do mean no damage to the canvas or they will not touch it.
 
Hey guys, I have major issues deciding haha Anyone care to help me? :)
I need a new wallet and debating between LV josephine/emilie in epi or prada saffiano zip around long wallet in fire red.. Idk which color I should get for LV though.

Hi Ladies,

I am new to the club. I wanted to get the DE Emilie with the brown interior so decided to go down the preloved route. It arrived today and it is gorgeous but I notice one of the thread in the corner has come away. Will this impact on the function of the wallet? Can it become worse? It was advertised as very good condition with no sign of wear. I'm not sure what to do now.... Any advise will be appreciated. I posted this in the Josephine/Emilie clubhouse as well but thought i'll ask here too. TIA

I got a new LV box from my lovely SA and decided to store multiple wallets in them

Can't believe after all the wallets I bought and sold in the past that I'm only left with five 😄

Hi, I would return or ask for partial refund. How much would depend on how much LV would charge the fix the stitching. HTH.
