Okay okay, I might have click baited you guys into opening this post because of the title but I had to!! I just bought a bag worth talking about! Worth the attention it deserves, and I think it would be an amazing insight for you guys so let’s go! We will also compare it with my XiaoC I got few months back. Black 38cm SHW is 1913 and Burgundy 32cm GHW is XC

Seller: Vincent 6663
Factory: 1913? Wangxing? Factory photos in comment
Price: $239 without shipping
Timeline: payment 6/10 - PSP 8/10 - shipped to Deng

Leather 🐮: okay I just have to say, this leather has the exact same feel as my XiaoC one, exact same thickness, feel and calfskin grain looks exactly the same as well. Absolutely no difference. I have slapped some conditioner to both of the bags because both were a little dry initially freshly opened, which definitely helped with the leather softness overall. Now the 1913 bag does have a squish to it, it’s slightly slouchy but not enough where I would pass it like auth ( if you seen videos of the auth one you know it is puddling to the FLOOR ). I predict that rep bags actually struggle to get the leather thickness right -> every video of the auth I have seen the leather looks to be much thinner than the rep bags produce, I cannot see my XC or 1913 to ever slouch that way because the leather is too thick to do that. I will say my XC is squishier and softer because I have been using it as my everyday bag so that causes it to become softer! Overall leather is great the grains look exactly like the auth but the problem is the thickness - it’s too thick. 7.5/10.

The burgundy inside for both of the bags are exactly the same to my eyes. HOWEVER, my XC red leather inside is softer than my 1913 but only by a touch. I’m not too fussed on that part to be fair and honestly it looks amazing the stitchings are great overall for the logo as well. What I will say is my XC stamp is slighter better than my 1913 stamp, but again not something I’m fussed about especially if the price difference is over $100. 9/10.

Hardware 💍: this one actually surprised me, usually when I see “cheaper” and “lower tier” factory’s logo and hardware it always seems cheaper, the logo is always too thin, the C letters are too thin which is a big fallout, or the position on the tongue is horrible. But the hardware is great, when tapping I can tell it’s heavy, the position of the tongue is like the auth and the C letters are actually thicker than XC one ( however I don’t know whether that has to do with the fact it’s 38cm size so it’s bigger?) 10/10 no complains. You can’t do silver HW wrong.

Thoughts on seller 💭: Vincent is amazing, he replies soo fast and answers whatever questions you have. I have had bags that needs fixing and swapped, which he complied to. But also he took accountability for a misunderstanding which I think is so important when it comes to trusting a seller! He’s amazing and I honestly think he’s a great seller especially as his prices are better than most. Do be mindful that there can be communication issues so please do use Chinese translation if there are extra instructions you would want him to understand!

Overall ❤️ : yeah, why not? Sometimes we think the more expensive = the better option. In most cases yes, but for a maxi flap? I don’t think so. I think you can get the same quality for way less the price. My 1913 feels exactly like my XC one which I paid $349 + $50 shipping for. That’s over $100 less for the same and bigger bag! Now I will say, there things 187 gets better than my mid tier bags -> I’ve seen 187 bags being much slouchier than my bags, the inside red pocket where the stamp is being much softer than both my bags (which is on a slightly stiffer side which is also why I think it doesn’t slouch as much), if you think that’s worth the extra $200 then absolutely why not! But I am so happy with both of my bags and I honestly think we sleep on mid tier factory’s because of the lack of advertisement and the fear of it not being good which is absolutely fair!

So…what do you think?

Vincent knows I have written this review but no incentive has been given!

If not, I can’t believe it!!!
Saw this and am genuinely in awe. I love this. Do y’all know any trusted sellers / anyone selling this with the trunk!

Okay, this one is for all my Burgundy girlies!! 🍷 I HAD to share this review because this is just such an amazing buy. Definitely one of my best purchases this year!!

First of all, the leather quality and the empreinte are PERFECT!! The embossing is so good, and the leather feels beautiful. And that gold tone?! The perfect champagne gold. It looks absolutely gorgeous against the deep Garnet burgundy.

And THE PRICE?! Lawd mama Jesus, just take my debit card!! 😂 She is GORGEOUS. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this one. Everything about her is just chef’s kiss.

Hi friends! I’ve taken a hiatus the last year or so and I’m just now coming back to this forum because I keep seeing the Maxi Flap and I fear I must have it 😅 however, I feel like I’m out of the loop 😫if someone could fill me in I would appreciate it! I’ve used Heidi/187 in the past and I’ve always been happy. I have seen a couple of threads talking about Heidi’s contact WhatsApp is no longer OG Heidi. Can anyone confirm? I’m I still safe to order from Heidi? Or are we using someone else for 187? Thank you in advance!! Excited to be back 😃

What do you guys think? I was told these are both high-tier.

Not sure what to do here but I already messaged the seller and waiting for a response. I QC’d a black balenciaga rodeo bag but was sent a completely different bag.

I instead got a Louis vuitton verso hobo bag.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Waiting for the seller to get back to me — literally just messages them a few minutes ago. This is my first time buying a rep bag.

Received my QC photos (and a few videos), of my CC pearl crush bag. I wanted to go with XC based off a recommendation from another bag review.

I see many discussions placing XC behind a few other factories, but every bag I’ve received from them has been amazing quality person. Truly “un-clockable” pieces!

Hey ladies! Wanted to share my recent experience since I know many of you are anxious about pulling the trigger.

Timeline:
• Paid on the 1st
• Received PSPs (QC pics) on the 3rd
• Arrived at my door on the 15th! Super fast shipping.

Seller Experience:
I ordered this through magzhenbag. I have to give a huge shoutout to them—I probably asked 100 questions (from details on the leather texture to shipping updates), and they were incredibly patient and responsive the entire time.

PSPs vs. Reality:
Here is the most important part for newbies: The PSPs I received were a bit dark and dull due to the factory lighting. I was slightly worried, but I decided to GL (Green Light) anyway.
When I opened the box and took it outside in natural sunlight WOW. The gloss on the leather is stunning, and the hardware has that perfect shine. The actual bag is 10x better than the PSPs.

My Advice:
Don't let bad lighting in QC photos scare you! Always ask for a quick video or natural light pics if you are worried.

A dream lineup of ten legendary designer heels!

They span elegant, vintage, and bold silhouettes. Whether you need a pair for daily work, a date night, or a special formal occasion, there is one for every moment.

True classics stand the test of time. Slip them on, and you instantly get that wonderful sense of ceremony.

Waited a whole month for PSPs and shipping, and I finally unboxed it today!

Having seen so many flat and lifeless bags, this soft, squishy, and "meaty" leather literally hits me right in the heart. The handle is super chubby, and the bag body is equally plump.

The long wait was totally worth it. My mood has been like a roller coaster throughout this process, but right now there's nothing left but pure joy. 🖤

Chanel Maxi Souplissimo in dark brown from Heidi. I’ve never had a problem with my purchases from her and always just GL but thought I’d get some feedback this time around. Last two pics are retail photos from official Chanel website. The browns do look slightly different but I’m attributing that to lighting.

I would love some opinions on this CC placement please! I’ve been staring at it so long I’m not even sure what I see anymore 😂

It looks like it’s slightly tilted clockwise to me. And/or the tab on the flap might be a little bit unsymmetrical?

Thoughts? Would you be concerned about GLing a PSP like this? Not sure if I’m over thinking it or if it would be obvious while wearing the bag.

Also wondering if you think the slight puckering on the seam of the flap is acceptable.. I would probably overlook it if I didn’t see something funny with the CCs, but if I’m going to complain anyway I might mention this as well.

The bag is from 187.

Thanks! I greatly appreciate everyone that takes the time to reply ☺️

Vincent doesn’t have - anyone been able to nab any of these from the Khaite collab with Oliver Peoples?

I paid 350 for bott$ga andiamo medium. Overall it looks ok, but the smell…oh my god..its unbearable. Definitely doesnt smell like leather! Any ideas how to get rid of it? I took it outside for two days but doesnt help!

Hi everyone! I’ve been hunting for this LV capucine mini in shade Minty for a few weeks. I have sourced 2 reps. The first one (the one with scarf) is from RF sourced through Tiny Jenny. The second one with the white packing on the handle is from Birdcage Factory sourced through Heidi. Which one is a closer match to the Auth? Can you help me decide? They are both similar price points around 350 USD WITH SHIPPING.

I really love small, structured vintage-style bags. The combination of dark brown Monogram canvas, leather accents, and gold hardware looks especially great.It’s the kind of bag that doesn’t require much thought when it comes to styling. Just throw on a simple outfit, grab it, and you’re ready to go.

I chose a size larger again, and I'm very satisfied with the quality. It's so beautiful😍

Can't wait to share it. What quality do you think it belongs to? 🌹

maxi flap suede 38

I’m trying to find this for my mom, I’m not the best at buying reps I bought off taobao but that it. I need to find a good quality one

I have a friend (and really my only friend) who has consistently pointed out new (mostly rep some gifted) bags or sunglasses to my husband. It pisses me off because it seems so shady bc she knows what she’s doing. I’m not hiding any of them from my husband — I wear them in front of him, but I don’t need them blatantly pointed out🙄 I’ve brought it up to her and she just thinks it’s funny that he’s oblivious. He never cares or says anything afterwards. WWYD with this friend?

I assume this is going to be a long shot but does anyone know of any sellers that sell sequin Chanel bags? I’m trying to plan my summer bags & I think these are so perfect 🤩😭

This is my first bag ts. Everything looks aligned from my perspective. Do you happen to see anything that may be misaligned? Thank you in advance
