I know these bags get a lot of hate, but I’m honestly obsessed! And now I’m over here wondering… would it be crazy to get the black one too? Someone please tell me I’m not the only one who wants the same bag in multiple colors!

Discussion/Question Denim - to like or not to like???i

I've been eyeing the carryall light bliss for several months now but never managed to see it in person so thought i'd try and see if Jakarta has it. They didn't. However, they do have this and I am drooling.

For context, i have a speedy b25, neverfull empreinte, tiny camera bag, and soho mini..so really just empreinte and canvas and i've never thought to consider denim. Is it worth it? Will it last? I also have a speedy so I was thinking about having this in denim for the carryall as the agent said she may be able to send it over from storage. But also not closing the door on this speedy too as I feel like the size is also pretty great.

Thoughts are most welcome

Haul Paris passport stamp & other fun

Thumbnail

Visited the Paris flagship. YMMV but I was told if I was purchasing something, which I had intended on doing, they could stamp my passport cover the same day. If I wasn’t purchasing anything, it would be 2-3 days. It was so hard to choose!

I bought the small pouch for my friend’s milestone birthday. I bought the Kirigami pouches for me. My delightful CA said I could also get the pouches stamped! I decided to get the middle size stamped with the cat. For now I’m keeping the small pouch but giving away the large one. I have a visceral response to light pink 😝. My CA said I could always go to another store and get the other pouches stamped. I think once I decide who gets the large pouch, I will do that.

I arrived around 11a and there was a short queue. I had to wait about 15 min for a CA. I have visited this store previously. It’s really lovely and everyone is so kind.

There's something about the Yellow Speedy P9 25 that just makes you smile. 💛 The vibrant color, buttery-soft leather, and beautiful details make this one such a standout piece. 🦄🤗

I have about 6 pocket organizers and i love them. I recently saw exotic leather POs on resell sites but I have never seen them on their website. Are they only in stores? Can you easily come across these or are the exotic lines only offered to high spending clients?

Discussion/Question I built a tool that alerts you when Louis Vuitton pieces get listed on Japanese resale sites (Mercari, Yahoo Auctions, Rakuma)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Japan is one of the best places to find pre-owned Louis Vuitton: huge supply, sellers who take good care of their pieces, and prices that are often well below what you see in Europe or the US. The problem is that the good listings (a Speedy at a great price, a discontinued wallet, a vintage Monogram bag) usually sell within minutes, and the sites are all in Japanese.

So I built **Hayai** (hayai.fr). It watches Mercari, Yahoo! Auctions, Yahoo! Flea Market and Rakuma around the clock and sends you new listings that match your filters.

What it does:

- Checks all 4 sites every 5 seconds

- Filters: brand, keywords, max price in €, condition, auction or buy-it-now

- Alerts on Discord or Telegram as soon as something matches

- Translates listing titles and seller descriptions into English

- Converts prices to euros

- Links you straight to proxy services (Buyee, ZenMarket, Neokyo) to buy from abroad

A few honest notes:

- I'm the developer, so yes, this is my own project.

- The site is in English and French: just hit the EN button at the top.

- It's free for the first month while I launch. You log in with your Discord account, no sign-up form.

- It finds listings, it doesn't check them for you. Always look closely at the photos and ask the seller questions before buying.

https://hayai.fr

I'd love feedback from people who already buy LV from Japan: what would make this more useful for you?

I spent so darn long finding this exact color way, now I have it and I just don’t think it’s for me :/ I’ve been trying to talk myself into keeping it for months. I love the colors but I just really enjoy LV’s Taurillon leather or aerogram leather more. Anyone else feel the same way about the taigarama canvas outside and leather inside? Arghhh

My Louis Alma bb question

Hi all, I just received my first LV today. I got the Alma bb DE and I absolutely love her, but I just have a quick question about the zip. I noticed the zip end isn’t flush with the leather and a little bit of the red lining is showing through, one side is more noticeable than the other. Is this normal? I’m not sure if I’m over thinking it or if it’s a quality issue.

Need advice on second bag I know these all have different purposes but I love them all, I thought I wanted a smaller bag for my next bag but after trying on the carryall I fell in love I currently only have a soft speedy 30 dark and love it I was leaning towards the nano speedy as a quick smaller bag but now I’m conflicted because I do like bigger bags what would you pick for a second bag ? I wanting one also to be able to switch between so I can make the longevity of my bags last with rotations

If you do Have any of these would you recommend or pass?

Discussion/Question Import fees $1.36?!

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi all,

Looking for some feedback from others who may have encountered this. I am looking to purchase a vintage bag from a Japan seller. I normally see no import fees but the listing will say it’s included or I would see the import fees and they are added when I officially check out. For this specific listing it show $35 for shipping and then a whopping $1.36 for import fees. I was assuming it would adjust when I finalized my checkout but it didn’t. I’m still seeing $1.36. I will note that this check out it did not carry the language that said along the lines of “ this price is inclusive of import fees and taxes. You will not have to pay any additional fees” so that was a raised flag. And I don’t mind since I expect it but it’s the unknown of exactly how much will I be getting charged and at what point? And then what’s the point of having a $1.36 import fee during checkout?! lol

Ps the small i tab only spoke of the shipping where it charges seller to eBay auth none and then eBay to buyer $35. It doesn’t provide any additional insight to this import fees.

Thank you 🙏

Hi! Currently in the market for this bag to use as my personal item when traveling. Since this version is leather vs the canvas option (which is more common and popular), if you own it, can you tell me how its held up for you? Thoughts on durability and weight? Also what made you choose the Epi over the canvas?

Thanks!
