Which seller to believe?

Hi! I’d like to order one Mini CF bag. This will be my first purchase, so I contacted two sellers.
Baobao told me there’s a 4-week waiting time because the bag has to be custom-made, while Ethan said he could have QC photos for me in about 4 days.
Who should I believe? I’d really appreciate your advice. Thank you so much for your help!

Recent Bag Haul

Hey everyone!

It's been a little while since I posted my bag purchases so I figured I'd put some in this one post! I have been stacking them up for about 2 months 😂

Here are my wins! I am in love with most, (except the pink speedy 20) there's nothing wrong with the speedy, just an impose buy and just didn't like her as much as I thought I would. Anyway, feel free to let me know if you would like a detailed review on any of them!

In search for this bag

Has anyone compared authentic vs. replica versions of the Louis Vuitton CarryAll 130th Anniversary edition?

I came across a replica that immediately looked off to me. The background of the monogram print has this creamy/beige/pinkish-white tint, whereas every authentic photo I’ve seen has a clean, bright white background.

Is this a known flaw with replicas, or did Louis Vuitton produce different color variations for this collection? I’d really appreciate if anyone who owns the authentic bag (or has seen high-quality reps) could weigh in.

Thanks!

Is someone lying about inventory?

Okay so I want this bag and I’ve been texting Ethan (verified seller) and this other guy Felix who is someone I know seller and she loves him. Well, I Felix says this bag is out of stock with 187 and then Ethan says he will get qc pictures of it in 3-4 days. So, Ethan says it’s in stock. Is someone lying? I think they’re both reputable, idk what to do or who to go with.

187, Rome or OF - additional DD

If you have pics of yr 187, Rome or OF CC bag BEFORE you removed any of the sellers packaging, specific factory bar code tags, or protective wrapping, I’d really appreciate it if you could share them.
Most of the pics/ videos I come across were taken AFTER buyers unpacked the bag.

Specifically looking for pics of:
-The bag straight out of the box.
-Any factory wrapping, tissue paper, foam, or protective materials.
-All tags, stickers, ribbons, or other packaging included.
-Anything that appears to be specific to 187 or Rome or OF factory.

And before someone comes for me—I know the bag itself is what really matters. This is just an additional DD step I’d like to do/ study.

First rep I’ve seen of the new Chanel 25 Mini Handbag

My supplier already has the latest Metiers d’art 2026 collection. What do you think of the quality? Shall I go for it or shall we wait for them to do more research and improve the quality?

TS Gaslighting me?

Hi guys,

I ordered the suede ysl bag in "light musk"

Please see Factory photos (green chair) versus PSP photos. The colour of the PSP bag is a completely different colour? Or am I losing my mind? It's supposed to be green but I'm seeing red/burgundy/maroon.

The seller is telling me it's the "lighting" but there's no way...

Just unboxed this classic piece today

The overall shape feels balanced when holding it. The diamond stitching flows pretty seamlessly from the main body to the front flap, and the leather feels quite nice. I’m always a bit picky about the back pocket alignment and how the inner flap's stitched CC turns out, so I made sure to capture those angles clearly along with the interior stamp and hardware.

Is my item seized?

My item has been in transit since June 26th, is this normal or has it been seized? Shipping has never taken this long and I’m in Toronto, Canada

No status change for a week?

It’s an international package and I received no updates since last week. I never had this before. Anyone else?
Shipped from China but this is German dhl so I think it’s coming from Germany to Austria

Pls help! QC CF 25 blue caviar leather lgw god fa

Help pls:  my CF25 in bright blue caviar with light GHW , GOD fa has arrived.
I’m v disappointed. I honestly can’t believe this bag was sent to me by the v well know TS as the issues are so obvious.

1st: caviar leather is hard. I owned older CF and it was softer from day one .

2nd thing I noticed was the chain, and I couldn’t focus on the rest of the bag because it immediately stood out.
What do you think ? Anything else you see . I have not approached the seller yet. 

Did I really receive a God bag as no bar code attached to the bag ( which is well known to be done or has that changed now ?)

I’ve marked the below 6 points on chain :

  1. You can clearly see where the leather strap has been stitched together.
  2. Visible gap in the leather chain  where one section ends and the next begins inside the chain.
  3. Second  visible stitched section in the leather.
  4. Chain construction wrong. The chain does not lie straight because two of the gold links twist around instead of sitting correctly
  5. .Visible leather double cuts

I compared the blue CF with my old black CF I own, and none of these 6 issues are present!

What do you think of this color?

I've been waiting for this one and it definitely didn't disappoint. The grey color is even prettier in person. Curious if anyone else prefers grey over classic black?

How does this bag look?

I want some opinions, I believe this is a rectangular mini flap in ivory caviar. I think the leather is nice, it isn’t stiff. Someone said the bag was puffy or slouching? I messed with the bag a bit maybe it was like that because I just got it overseas. Unsure though.
