LOUIS VUITTON SPEEDY 30 REPAIR: is it worth it?

I had my speedy 25 repaired last year I had all the leather replaced including the pipping. I did not get the zipper replaced but all the leather was. I was quoted $540 I also requested a new padlock and the total for everything $570 no tax I did the repair through the LV customer service repair center. It was a process but I was never charged taxes. I made a video of my repair. I’m guessing if you do everything at ones you get a better deal then if you do little by little. I have a lot of vintage bags that I do repair all the time. It can get expensive but all my repairs have been great. The repair center does a great job. When you have some time checkout my repair videos.

Thank you so much for doing this video! Also glad that you’re feeling better. I had a LV monogram 6 key holder that needed re-glazing around most of the edges but was quoted $120 (almost half the cost of a new key holder today), so I decided not to get it professionally repaired. Helpful to know the cost for speedy parts since speedy bags are prevalent in the resale market!

I am currently waiting on my speedy 40 to come back with its zipper repaired. $180 total! cant wait to get it back

What on earth are you people doing… these are just old bags, once you replace the leather it no longer matches the bag, then you have to tan it… it’s a mess. If it’s a small thing but critical item like a stud, get it repaired, but otherwise just enjoy the bag for what it is - a vintage bag with a vintage look.

In-form-a-tive! I have experienced the vertical cracking in a Sac Looping and I was devastated. This was about 20 or more years ago. I was so disappointed and insulted when the SA accused me of either leaving my bag outside (exposing it to the elements) or wearing directly against my underarm (exposing it to deodorant). I was livid because neither scenario applied. I ended up speaking with someone in San Franciso, I believe, to resolve the issue. By then I was less upset about the bag issue and was more upset about being accused of basically mishandling or abusing my own bag.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. Thank you so much for sharing the information. Take care darling 💕

I was quoted at $600 for my speedy 30 for replacing all leather, canvas care and new lock and this quote was from LV store my bag status as of today is being repaired. Now if you take your bag to a Village Cobbler the prices are different and can be more expensive but you get your bag much faster

This was great content ! I have a 2007 Speedy25 need to get all the leather replace. Thanks for sharing

I just got my Speedy 25 repaired here in Zürich, the canvass is perfect but the Vachetta was super dark and dried and the hardware were tarnished. I paid 679chf, the repair was worth it for me. I bought the bag in a secondhand shop. By the way, my speedy 25 is 22yrs old.

I had my Saumur 35 vachetta replaced, they actually replaced all the hardware too including the rivets, the clasps also.

I went in November of 2021 and was quoted $540 for the speedy 30 for all outside leather, so it doesn’t include the leather inside the bag like the pocket. I am located in CA of that also depends on the price. Hope this helps!😊 However, because of everything that’s going on the repair process is taking longer than usual because I dropped my bag off in November and they changed my date on when my bag will be ready for April. It sucks, but I understand. Hope this info helps!

Thank you for this video. With the cost of the repairs on some of these bags it definitely can be better to just get a new bag, but it helps to be informed about options when it comes to repairs. Your friend scored with that deal on the Speedy 40 BTW

Today I got my speedy 25 repair and got charged $540 to replaced all the outside leather parts. The price depends on the size of the bag.

Last month I was quoted $780 to replace all the vachetta on my vintage speedy 25. To change piping and all tabs is $360 at Bloomingdale’s LV boutique. Which is weird because they are replacing all my vachetta including straps and string on my Noe GM for $330. 🤷‍♀️

Omg Michelle your parents from Philippines 🇵🇭😍 I’m filipino too. The last time I asked summer last year in Calgary they told me to repair on a mini speedy for $200 just for the zipper pull 🤣 omg maybe the SA doesn’t like me to get it repaired. She probably wanting me to jus buy a new bag because they said the mini speedy has to be replaced than doing just the zipper pull 😀 last summer in Calgary. By then I have purchased just a strap from LV brand new and nothing else. She also mentioned I don’t have a history buying a bag. Maybe she doesn’t like me. I was nice to her.

But the old canvas are much thick comparable to now sometime replacing it it’s worth it. Glad you feel better. Miss you.

awwww..... Happy to hear you are feeling better.. Thk you for uploading this much needed video...Have a blessed year!

DMS can you please do a video on how to clean your LV canvas & leather bags thanks
