Hi! I’m new to this bowl. I have a Celine bag that I love (very sentimental) but is well loved and definitely showing wear. I’m looking for recommendations for where to have it repaired. Thank you!

Rago Brothers outside NYC is the company where all the big brands actually send things if they don’t have repairs in house. I’ve sent photos of damage and done mail-ins to them and things have come back really good. Their primary business is probably not individual customers but they are definitely experts.

Depending on where you are based, many major cities will have a go-to cobbler/leatherworker that is known for work on luxury goods. In Dallas, for example, Dino’s in Highland Park is where most go to have luxury heels repaired, belts resized, and bags refurbished. I’d suggest asking around in your area (sales reps at Neiman Marcus, owner of a high-end consignment) who they recommend. Or if you regularly travel to a larger city or are willing to ship, use a known shop elsewhere.

Take it to the Celine store before anywhere else. Most luxury brands repair their own things

Thanks! I reached out to Celine. It took a few days but they asked for additional info (proof of purchase and pictures etc). So hopefully they can help!

Have you tried taking it to a purse repair service center in your area? I just brought mine to a repair shop near my apartment. Really glad that they had it repaired in just a span of 3 days.

If there aren't any repair services near you, there are a lot of service you can find online that works through mailing. My sister had a bag repaired and used that type of service. I can't recall the name though.

I had a damaged handbag and it was also my favorite. I hid it away for months now. If anyone knows of any repair service around Queens, NY, please do comment here. Thanks in advance!

I am still amazed how can they do this after asking my documents.

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

Also are there other LV bags that do not have the visible LV prints?

Kind of seeking validation here but also happy to take feedback. Is 22 too young for luxury goods? I’m obsessed with handbags. Like literally.

Idk what’s wrong with me🧐but I’ve been feeling super antsy and dissatisfied with life that I seek thirst in binge shopping, or even spending hours looking at handbags. Fyi I’m really not spoiled, most of the bags are hard earned and I consider myself to be ambitious
