I'd be worried about keeping it in plastic- your extension cords need to breathe [emoji4]
What kind of extension cords do LV owners use?

Well, there is no such thing as a perfect EC. They are made by people and as such, there can be flaws.
I say use it and enjoy.
Looks authentic to me but I think it's from fall 2015 when there were serious quality issues with production. I would hold out for a later season.
While I have been very pleased with my extension cord purchases for the past 30years-yes I admit I have been a serious collector but I also buy to actually use them and not keep my cords packed away prone to storage rot. I have never thought any of my purchases could have been returned to the store and possibly used by a person who had buyers remorse. And I never saw any damage to the metal hardware showing scratches-maybe I have been lucky. But now with the new cords coming out I guess one needs to check for the monogram designs being even and especially for edge wear. Once the edging wears off the cords it can't be fixed by LV. Rumor says this is a fire hazard and they already are trying to solve this problem.
Has anyone noticed that their spouse/SO does not give you a problem when you buy another extension cord. And some are even collectors themselves with limited collection cords buried in their basements and garages. Do they understand the value of these cords? I know they could have received them as gifts from their dads when they were younger, especially when moving out of the house they made great housewarming gifts. Some might have been lucky to receive one when they got married too.
My husband has a HG orange extension cord. I think it must be 50 feet long. He only takes it out when he is working on his vintage car repairs or during the outside Christmas Decorating project. But he plugs it in the backyard electrical box so it is protected by a locked fence. While we live in a very safe neighborhood theft can happen anywear.

What the what?!?!? Don't they know how much that cord costs??? Plus that looks like a model they don't even make anymore! Must be nice to have extra coins to throw around. Plus water and cords don't mix!
Natural selection in its finest hour.
Well, I'll go first: $109.I would be embarrassed to tell you.
I'm a little ashamed, but in my defense, I am using all of them regularly!
Well I don't know about you guys but I'm on a self imposed ban.
I am going to shop from my own closet for now.

Great storage solution. I might need to copy this!
I like how you have kept your collection to neutral colors. Such classic pieces that can go in any room decor.
