I really don't mean to be a pain, but I have more questions about packages getting stuck in HK customs. My Jacky order was shipped out on 11/13, and the status still shows that it was "accepted". Has anyone else gone through something similar and can they offer any advice? Jacky will not resend the items.

he changed his policy on his website, it was guaranteed to leave CHINA, but not US custom. now it is all gone

Has anyone experienced slow response or non response from Catty? She told me last Thursday or so they were closed for holidays... Anyone got recent updates from her?

I emailed her late last night and she replied this morning...

She didn't mention anything about being on holiday

Thanks for letting me know.

I guess she's actin' gangsta on me again.

Luckily it does not say it was seized. It says: Your item was accepted in HONG KONG on November 13, 2010 at 1:56 pm. No further information is available for this item.

I will try and wait more patiently >.>

Boinquo try not to worry to much. I know easier said then done but I had a pkg stuck in Chinese customs for 2 weeks before it went into US customs. The holidays and games had made it difficult so don't worry this time of the year pkg tend to move at a snails pace.

boinquo...I had that happen to me with a package from T & D....it eventually showed up at my door...tracking was never updated. It took about 10 days or so.

thesiren-thank you for your review on praline and sahara
I would like to order the sahara city I am deciding if I should go with GSH or rh I am thinking that the GSH with a light color like sahara would look too formal so I think I will go with rh hope I am making the right choice

One word...perfect!

Has anyone ever ordered a 42cm Hermes Birkin from Catty? im kinda in love with this bag!
Any input on the quality of Catty's birkin would also be appreciated
Thanks!

really? i really don't think any of the bal bags NBF are too formal. sahara with GSH is STUNNING! definitely glam in a major way, but not at all formal imho. RH is nice too though! i believe kim kardashian carried that combo for awhile.

I think formal wasn't the correct word I love GSH I just don't know if it would be too much bling for me personally on a lighter color

Where to find best monogram LV

Hey everyone, I have been looking for a few monogram LV's and the longer I'm looking the more difficult it's getting. I have looked at Jacky's and Joy's and some on Ioffer and every bag has something off, the pattern is always off if you look close enough and if you know the bag well. Also fonts on the front label are a problem. I'm looking for a super rep and I think I have to start looking at other sites, I have found great Hermes but no LV yet. Any suggestions? Thanks

 

[boinquo]

Purple_Cherry, try fangfang//tommy on ioffer. She has the highest quality bags in the market that I know of. They will be more expensive. Her photos look like higher quality than the mono pieces I've bought from Jacky. You can also pm lovedbychanel because she's 1337 with mono reps. I am more of a n00b for LV.

Has anyone ordered the Prada Leopard Print Canvas tote from Catty? Its on her homepage, and do you know if there was a real one? I'm trying to find better pics but I keep on finding the same images from ioffer and some other sites.

does anyone know the measurment of the BLACK FLAT clutch on T&D?

it's 11.5" x 8.5"

I just received a Damier Neverfull MM from FangFang. I am happy to report that it is the highest quality Damier I have seen. Catty's quality used to be much like this, but recently, she has skimped on detailing in her Neverfulls (someone posted earlier that they doubted that the trim used on the top edge of the bag was leather, I concur). Everything on mine is the perfect brown shade and the texture and weight of it is excellent. Her canvas is thicker than other reps, but not stiff.

The one con I noticed in the bag is that the squares on the top edge of the bag were not evenly cut off by the leather trim in one 2" stretch but it is much less noticeable than on other reps. Overall, it was twice as expensive as Catty and Jacky, but I did not experience the (sigh, Oh well I guess~) that I did with two Neverfulls I bought from Catty that were inconsistent in their own ways. I wish I had bought this one earlier and I just went ahead and plonked some cash to get a 2.55 and a 227 reissue from her... AM EXCITE!

So glad your Damier Neverfull MM from FangFang was the highest quality!

Coincidentally (based on recomendations from you ladies) I am ordering a 227 with silver hardware & a black maxi flap with sh from FangFang - fingers crossed! B)

Thank you for the welcome back Crystal!!! I haven't had much to post lately, but have been lurking, reading each & every post.


Will definately post pics of my FangFang Chanels when I receive them. Waiting for her invoice for my bags, will update when order is completed & I receive tracking #. At work I deal with clients in Shanghai, so I am accustomed to the rhythm of communicating with China, the time difference.

Congratulations on all the ladies who got black Bals from T&D's latest batch. I am kicking myself for not getting a rh weekender. I have been doing a lot of small trips this year, & would get a lot of use out of it.

The boys are the best - I consider them friends, penpals. They know a lot about me (where I work & live)!!! And I trust them with my secrets. My only complaint (more of a concern) is the quality/description of their leather. You literally have to see & touch it to believe it.


My Vert D'eau bags are HG quality, my preferred type of leather. I feel a lot of ladies agree with me, as it got so many raves & "reveals" on our forum. My go-to bag is my NBF Officier Twiggy. The leather is too thick for me, but because I'm not so attached to this bag, I am more comfortable using & abusing it. I have taken her to Yankees games, & used her to sneak snacks into the movies, even used her to carry booze on my way to a pregame!! Not very lady-like, but she is no worse for wear, looks much better than when I got her. Her mirror broke (not sure how), & the boys rapidly sent me a replacement.

Still haven't carried my NBF Grey City bag yet - she's a bit shiny & I can't find Leather Revive. I tried ordering from Leather Reviive directly, and they refunded my $ on paypal, as they don't ship to the US. Does anyone know a source who ships leather revive to the US? Or a place that sells Leather Revice in NYC? I would be forever grateful. I am holding off on ordering another NBF until I trat my Galet rh city w lather revice.

Anyways, sorry for the long winded post, hope all is well with you ladies, & am looking forward to reveals of Moutarde & BDR from NBF!

They do ship to the USA! I and others in here have bought it! If you just google "leather revive" it's a different company/product. What the gals here use is Leather Revive by Furniture Clinic. Go here http://www.furnitureclinic.co.uk/Leather_Revive.htm

Hi guys... news from T&D

[FONT=Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial] Just thought I would let you know we can do GRGH Black bags.
We have found a factory in Italy that will do a small order for us.
We can only do 20 bags though in any style. We were able to get chain instead of individual bag length zips.
let the girls know if they would like one they should contact us.[/FONT]
