OMG, MsGlamstarr!!! I looked at the name "bestsellerforever" and thought to myself the name looked very familiar. I quickly did a search through my gmail and found that I bought a bag in 2006 from him. It was a perfect LV Manhattan pm. I loved that bag to death. :heart: How weird is that?

Do you know why he left ioffer?

Yes!! Bills (bestsellerforever) had THE best vachetta out there.. the kind that starts to oxidize FAST ...not with any additives needed.. Also, his canvas wasn't too dark and matched my authentics to a T.. He left because he had TROLLS who would buy from him and do the "Chargbacks" etc.. so he no longer sales online.. I got his last bag in 3 days shipped from HK to Miami..i have spoken to him recently but it takes him a while to go back and fourth since he isnt just online anymore.:cry: i offereed him Western Union and im waiting for him to get back to me.. His email is the same though..
 
I'm going to email him now then! I'm looking for the best Galliera out there so he might be the one to get it from. :woot:

Have you ever purchased from Jacky? If so, how do you think the two guys compare? I have long since given away my LV Manhattan from Bill so I can't directly compare it to the LV items I ordered from Jacky.

T&D question :flower:

Does anyone have anything anthra from the current batch? If yes could they pretty pretty please take a picture beside a black bal? I cannot for the life of me decide if I want a black rh weekender and an anthra rh weekender :D

Thank you! :flower:

hi chupi! here's my anthra velo i just received last week compared to my black velo. this anthra run is much lighter compared to last year's anthra. the leather is just like galet, on the thinner and shiny side, but very silky. HTH! :flower:

^ pics by me

for the person who wants to condition their raisin...i used everything possible (apple, LMB, vit E, lanolin, mink oil and leather revive) but it's still not as supple as some bags i never even conditioned :( i didn't try egyptian magic though. so maybe that might work :)
 
hey guys..im a noobie here, but i was wondering..I ordered an LV from jacky and it is taking FOREVER to patina, do you guys use a special oil or anything in particular to darken the dang vachetta? ty:)
 
A lot of girls here use EVOO to help develop the patina ;)

^^and that doesnt stink up the handles after a while? i mean the oil SMELLS lol , do i just rub it with a sponge ? or spray it..haha sorry for the random questions but i dont want to have a heart attack if i mess it up
 
bella swan - thanks :) it's the previous batch of black

fashionfreak86 - you can also use baby oil and cotton balls. i put it on about 5 times and the patina became perfectly honey colored. it looks really dark right when you rub it on but once it's dried it will turn lighter. just keep doing it until it reaches the shade you want. you should also put it in sunlight if you can...that will really speed the process :flower:

iv been using vitamin E oil and it hasent helped. the leather is also wrinkly as if the bag was squashed and mushed up for months before seeing the light of day:ninja::ninja::ninja:

Thank you sooo much Chicadee :woot:That's great to see them side by side, really helps my choice. I'd seen all the pictures of Anthra but just couldn't tell how large the contrast was between anthra & black.

Chicadee & bagsgalore101: Candy originally used leather revive because she saw how someone had transformed their super dry raisin leather. The picture was amazing, it made such a difference! Maybe it would help both your dry bags? :flower:
 
^ you're welcome chupi :flower: i personally like the darker anthra from last year but i don't have any color like this new anthra so i'm glad i got it!

i did the leather revive on my raisin for 6 times - each time massaging it into the leather, wiping it off, then massaging more into the leather and used cling wrap and wrapped it overnight...yes 6 days i repeated that same process. it got somewhat better but not nearly as nice as my outremer bags which i didn't put anything on. i still haven't used my raisin :cry:

when i first got my black velo, the leather was rather shocking i must say...not wrinkly and dry as the raisin but definitely on the dry side. i decided to just use it without putting anything on it and good gracious after using it nonstop for the past 2 months the leather has softened tremendously.
 
Bloody hell! 6 times! Eek, that's awful :( LR turned my sang & black cities into puddles of lovelieness.. Maybe that baseball mitt oil?

Not sure about anthra either, it's a lovely colour but definitely more blue than I was hoping for. Going against the grain I'd love an anthra with green undertones :D
 
chupi here is another picture that may help.
Anthra rh wk (2nd batch) and a black work gsh that I used to have. Pic is my own. hope this helps:flower:
I have pretty much used all the leather conditioners/potions out there, and IMO I like Egyptian magic the best.
I can't remember the member who used it and posted....If i go back and search i will know..but so far, that has given me personally the nicest results....it was Limmiett. i just searched...hello limmiett:flower:

Chupi, i would love to try leather revive but i'm currently in asia now and i don't know how i can get my hands on them. also im kinda reluctant to put on another product since my sorbet already got Apple Care and LMB. so i'm kinda scared that by putting another product, it might produce an undesirable effect.

but you know what, i just might try it when i get back to CA! that's still a long long time. heheh.

so for now i guess i'll do what chicadee did with her black velo. use it continuously and hopefully the leather will soften up in time!

*fingers crossed*

:-)
 
Hi girls, is been a while...I'm waiting for my Noix PT GSH :rolleyes: Meanwhile T&D are sending some Noix , Anthra pic.
I'm also looking for Celine classic Box...Jacky's posted 2 styles so far: Medium Boston??? and Shoping Tote.
BTW about conditioning leather revive...I bought from LMB the conditioner and miracle shield but it turned out so small that i'm only using it for my Money wallet and Bal handles..I'm very curious about this Apple leather revive for the shine, Mi Sang Velo has some shine but just by itself is disappearing.
Below pics from Jacky's.

^naiala - oh can't wait to see your noix, it must be coming very soon - these pics from the boys are very shinnneeeeey! ;)
To briefly come back to GST, i just scoped out J's and he has one in 'coming soon' - but he's put the 09 CC on the 10 ring style *doh* - so i still recommend pinky's gold GST for now (or catty as a 2nd choice). my friend who bought pinky's 6 months ago said the gold was still good, no tarnishing/fading and that's after a normal bit of use. catty's GST SHW looks good but i never find it as super shiny as the real-deal.

for those looking to use EM - i wouldn't use too much it makes the bag sticky and i had to wipe mine off with a tshirt *doh*, but it did wonders to the bag and made it less shiny ;)
 
^Yup I noticed that on J's 2010 GST lol.. not a good idea, blatantly fake! I wouldn't go with Catty's GST as she sent me pictures and the leather looks like a bad hybrid of lambskin and caviar... and it was all creased and smooshed. So I went with pinkcherry's silver GST and she told me she checked the factory and the rings were small and thick just like the gold GST. Pinkcherry all the way for GSTs!!! She has impeccable English too! Thanks for the recommendation daisycx9!

My noix rh city was attempted to be delivered to my house yesterday so I will be picking it up after work.. yay!!!

Btw has anyone tried to speed up the patina process on a damier azur piece?? I would love if my damier azur speedy's handles tanned!
 
I have my Anthra City with GSH, Noix City RH and Leather revive on its way to me!!!!

Will post lots of before/after pics when this all arrives!!!!:clap:
