Hi Everyone, I wanted to share my experience buying a pre-loved item from Japan. I have been waiting patiently for LV to come out with a exciting new hand held clutch, but to no avail. The last one I loved but missed out on is the Petillante clutch in empreinte. I decided to look into the pre-loved market and check out all the usual venues...FF and Yoogis as well as e-bay. Then I looked on this forum for suggestions and came across a thread on e-lady a Japanese reseller. I went on her web site and low and behold they had an A rated Petillante clutch in the color Earth. I decided to take a chance and ordered it. The price was making me nervous because it seemed low. $800.00. That is a savings of 1100.00. Anyways, I decided to purchase and am sooooo glad I did. It has exceeded all expectations. It is in BRAND NEW condition. Here it is my new to me Clutch. So Happy
