I still remember my excitement when I entered a LV boutique for the first time to buy a bag that I saved up for 😂 That was 7 years ago and I still have that handbag, and use it almost everyday ❤😊

Fools are the ones who spend $10,000 on a "real" bag. I have a fake Louis Vuitton doctor bag, purchased at *condupcom* . I walked into Neman Marcus with it. Several employees in the handbag section couldn't believe my bag was fake. They compared my bag to a "real" bag and they couldn't see any difference.

Super fake package PTSD is real. I thought I bought an authentic LV Weekend Tote GM on eBay, when I opened the box I immediately thought I had bought a fake: no hot stamping, the bottom did not match the picture, the "dust bag" was tatty and flimsy, but I The handbag I bought on *condupcom* looks very real: the hardware, the zipper, and especially the canvas. I sent it back and only got a partial refund, but glad my hands were clean of a 3A super fake. I have never bought LV since.

My eyes roll so far to the back of my head when someone complains about their shoes getting the crease from their foot flexing. I had a friend get mad about her Gucci loafers getting this crease and "it shouldn't happen because it's Gucci" this fairy tail mentality is so strange to me. It's a shoe! Not magic

I as an employee, I bought one of the very expensive, 5k retail three piece men's suites from their men's collection. And I kid you not, after only wearing it about 4 times ever, the stitching started coming undone, and string fraying all over. after one trip to the dry cleaners, the dry cleaners straight up told me the fabric would not hold up for a second dry cleaning. And this was at a bougie dry cleaner where rich people get their stuff done. It was a waste of money. I was better off going to a normal men's suit store.

I also have a cle ; a 6-Ring key holder and slim wallet. Everything else is vintage. In fact I am mow awaiting a vintage Randonne PM to go with my Randonee GM. The quality of the vintage canvas far surpasses the new and I have never spent more than $350 on a vintage bag. I refuse to buy new die to price increases. Grants, I do send a number of these bags to LV for vachetta replacement which is pricey but less than a new bag. Inasmuch as fashion jewelry-lV’s is the equivalent of a departure stote trinket.

I’ve had a chain choker with the CD logo I paid $5 for a couple yrs ago just to see how a $5 inspired-by piece looks in person, and it still looks new. no chipping, no change in gold tone, no green neck, bc it is stainless steel. The authentic CD one is a “gold tone metal” not even gold plated or gold filled, and over $700. I think Dior is chic and all, but for $700 you can buy an actual solid 18K little necklace from Tiffany, or get a local jeweler piece that is more substantial with some little diamonds, know what i mean? designer costume is a rip off imho

Is there a way to do that without driving a sales associate crazy. Second I am all about the crossbody bags (I do not trust myself to not lose something otherwise). I bought a separate crossbody straps at another LV store and would like to make use of it. Can/should I bring the that strap with me (it’s still in mint condition, and I think I even have the receipt) or will the store have one for me to tryout with the bag? Also, I bought a lavender wallet years ago that got a few tiny ink stains from receipts. I’ve read a couple places that dabbing the spot with a little rubbing alcohol might fix it. Is this a good idea, or should I try something else? Thank you for your time!

Wonderful video.... yes! jewelry from these designer brands (also from Chanel etc)... are not real precious metals! No real silver, no real gold and just crystal glass.... Okay, perhaps with a certain classic Chanel necklace it is perhaps worth to pay like money for it because it is iconic... but really.... most of the jewelry isn't worth it. There are much better brands with much better jewelry for normal prices... like 18K gold plated silver (or real 18k gold or real silver) from PD Paola (they use next to real diamonds also lab grown diamonds.... much cheaper than mined diamonds and even experts can't see the difference between the two because the diamonds are identical, only some special measuring machine could decide if it is lab grown or mined), Monica Vinader or APM Monaco..... So don't spend your money on jewelry from designer brands. And good to know: Diamonds aren't rare! These things are everywhere..... other gem stones are much rarer.... And also these Louis Vuitton bags.... I mean, they are boring by now no? Michelle is telling often that these bags don't make you look better.... and they don't.... plus you are paying so much more while the quality of like Aigner Munich (I am a fan of that brand because they have real good finishing and quality - Not the American Aigner: same origins but a different brand and lesser quality).... But also like Tory Burch (I love the logo, just gorgeous... I can't say anything about the quality because I never bought a bag by that brand).... But also look at more independent artisan bag makers .... who are using full grain leather.... that is the quality leather. 'Real leather' or 'leather' or 'genuine leather' is all the cheapest leather out there.... the least durable and the leather that ages the ugliest.... like with creases: full grain quality leather creases in a much more beautiful way than the ordinary leather. I am not sure if Louis Vuitton always uses top grain leather? Plus, all these big brands often use a plastic finish, to get like a standardised result ... probably also happens with Vuitton? And leather in the lining is almost always of a lesser leather quality or even synthetic... again not sure with Louis Vuitton.... ah and last but not least: don't spend thousands on simple quartz watches from these big brands (except for like the Cartier watches).... go for real Swiss made brands with a long history in watch making. Quartz isn't bad but watches from like Versace, Chanel, Louis Vuitton and what you have aren't worth the insane amounts of money. They are really fooling you, if you think these watches are quality watches. Of course buy it when you think it is pretty, but most people who know something about watches know it is just a bling and not a quality watch. Bling is okay.... but don't think you are buying quality with such a watch. You are just buying a standard quality watch, often with just crystal glass and not even extra hardened glass or Sapphire glass. But also Japanese watch brands with a real heritage behind them are worth your money. 'designer' watches are just for fun and decorating. Decorating is okay, and pretty shapes and colours can be nice ... but... they are not 'real' watches... they're fun watches, and yes wealth signifiers.... But often people who want to wear wealth signifiers aren't that wealthy. Many designer stuff can be pretty, or right on trend, then perhaps you think it is worth buying, but often you are paying insane amounts of money for simple metal, glass and basic quality leather with a plastic finish.... .

Thank you for the detailed insight! I try, but people will make up any story as an excuse to spend for status! Buy it only if you like it I say, but never ask me if I think it's worth it, the answer is always NO! As for Vuitton, the only top grain leather would be on the Cappucines. Everything else is highly plastic coated and finished to minimize the appearance of flaws. The epi leather has a unique coating that makes it more durable. People think that the canvas is leather, and they even must think Vuitton grows their cows with LV branding on it. I hear the craziest things. I do have a Vuitton watch, it is beautiful but not nearly worth the retail price tag.

Can I ask you about your opinion on the canvas speedy 25 bandoulière? I have a speedy 25 leather piece and just bought a damier ebene online a few days ago. I noticed that the gold hardware on the leather bag is absolutely impeccable whereas the canvas piece gold hardware is tarnished and it's still in the box :( Is it normal for the hardware to be a super dull yellow color?

I’ve received at least 5 scratched or dented items when shopping online. FIVE TIMES! Each time I had to fight for an exchange. Turned me away from the brand

Next time, take a video opening the box and inspect the item, so you have proof.

@dialmstyle I do it everytime! Each time still a battle. It's mind blowing. Just 2 months ago they sent me a epi belt with dents on the leather and the scratches on the buckle. They approved the return over the phone. However, they returned the item to me when I shipped it back because it wasn't in a saleable condition (like you mentioned). Took me an entire month to fight it with proof it was delivered damaged, with proof that this was sent to LV prior to the initial return approval.

This is why I don't buy luxury shoes. Don't get me wrong, there are some beautiful styles, but I can't justify spending hundreds of dollars on a product that I'm going to pound on concrete over and over as I walk.

Is it worth the risk? If it happens to other people’s bags, it will happen to yours!
