As much as I love the look of my Empriente Speedy 25, I am so disappointed with the glazing issues. It was my first LV handbag, and I had wished I choose something else. As for the style, I love it. I just can't believe that such an expensive bag can have such issues with quality.

When the Damier Graphite line premiered many years ago, I bought the Tadao GM (well at the time there was only one size) thinking that it would be my favorite bag.

It turns out this was a great tote, but I hated DG: too dull, too serious, too boring. It just wasn't for me. I sold it to someone who could give this bag a loving home and never regretted it. [emoji2]

I think I learned my lesson. I consider a lot of factors before making a big purchase and I refuse to "convince" myself that a bag will work eventually.

I thought the same thing about DG. I bought my fiancé a wallet, and at first he said he wanted the DG, but I convinced him the DC looked waaaay better; he is very happy I pushed him in the right direction[emoji6][emoji5]️

There is something about a plain DG wallet that just looks fake? Or maybe not very Louis Vuitton. But that's just me.

I regret purchasing my noir epi Noe, I loved it at first , it was a very spontaneous purchase . I hate that I have to always open the draw string and I feel it's to wide when carried over the shoulder :( it's siting in its dustbag on its shelf not being used for months .

Have you thought about replacing the drawstring with a pretty colorful scarf. I've seen that done and it may transform the bag into something you like.

Pallas! I just couldn't wait to get it! Loved it for a couple of months. Then noticed it really didn't hold much without looking ugly and stuffed! I parted with it quickly!

Are you talking about the regular one or the BB? 'Cause I thought the latter looks really cute and might work well as a crossbody for essentials (don't own it yet, that's why I'm curious)?

My Pallas BB is still in good shape. I've had it for a year. I don't use it very often but have not had any problems with it. It is exactly that, an expensive but cute cross body bag that holds a little more than the essentials.

I regret my vernis purchases. I bought the sarah wallet in pop rose, its beautiful like all vernis, but way too fralige for every casual use imo and the credit card slots are so tight, you have to struggle to get the cards out.
I somehow managed to get glitter stuck on it from a shirt with a glitter motif that easly came off, and of course the glitter made stains on the vernis... :(

My hubby's bought me the vernis cles in the pomme d'amour and I had it in my bag next to a ziplock bag I had written my daughters name on with a sharpie and all of it transferred over onto my cles because they had gotten too close! [emoji37] it's my one and only piece I'll ever get in vernis....

The Speedy 30. I know it's an LV classic, but I'm not a handheld bag kind of girl at all. At least the Speedy B would've came with a strap option, but then I wouldn't have been satisfied with the floppy bottom. Sigh. I can't decide to sell it or pass it on later, especially when I bought it for such a low price years ago.

That's terrible. I agree with you that there shouldn't be those kinds of quality problems at that price point
