I'm curious about the little pocket on the Celine pouch, too. Any thoughts?

Has anyone bought Anthra GRGH from T&D? How's the hardware? I've been asking them for close-up hardware pics for the longest time but they seem too busy to send it. They just replied me saying "They aren't quite as dark as the real ones if that is what you are worried about. Maybe you should pass."... What do you guys think?

babybluestar: I can't decide between this and his Mulberry bayswater small satchel! But your comment has me leaning towards ps1

Misako: I have an item en route from Fang through AliExpress. She's already given me the tracking number. It should be alright! *fingers crossed*

I thought the tivoli looked really good till i saw the inside patch with the heatstamp. I know noone sees it but us, but i cant stand the crappy looking stiching and print. Granted the one i receive may not have that, but it sends a red flag for me when J chooses a photo like that to display that model you know what i mean? I'm looking at Fangs Lv's right now...

You may want to look at Joy's as well

Any advice would be appriciated!
Help i have had my package from Jacky held by customs, they have sent me a letter asking what is in the package and for an invoice to prove payment, has anyone else ever experienced this? All i can send is proof of payment via WU,I fear the worst....
Thanks Kim

^^^Cut the loss, and contact J to resolve the issue. Do not give customs any info!

Contact Jacky, he should be able to give you an "invoice" which you can send to customs. You will probably have to pay a customs charge but you will get your goods released.

This happened to one of the group orders I was in.

^^^ I hope everything works out for you!! Might I ask how many pcs you bought?
I just placed an order with J too,the basic 3 bags and 2 wallets/accessories to keep the box smaller... Keeping my fingers crossed as well!!

 

[kimair]

Hmmm, so Jacky has the Celine clutch bags out. Any reviews? I didn't know that the bags had a little pocket in the back.

yes, the pouches do have a photo in the back...
here's a pic of a python one from celine.com

the bi-color pouches do not have a pocket...
i was thinking the color of some of his bi-colors are a bit off...
i thought the yellow/black was actually yellow/navy...and the orange should be orange/navy not orange/black...

I bought five things, but only four were in this package as one of the bags wasn't ready. 2 bags and 2 scarfs,one of the bags was a Mulberry Clipper though so pretty big. At least i have another bag due which will hopefully make it OK.
You should be OK this doesnt seem to happen often.

i thought the orange/black was wrong too, but here's a pouch from tpf with that combo:

so i think it is real?

Catty is getting me the small Chanel Iridescent & Crackled calfskin. She's charging me $145 (+$78 for DHL) and Philip has it for $124! Philip has a min order of $200?

Hi there! The Crackled calfskin, are you talking about Chanel Metallic Reissue? Is the price quote full leather?

I am very sorry to hear that! I agree with other posters, do not give info to customs. Jacky will reimburse half.

 

[lucy92]

the top zipper on my black celine tote from jacky is wonky. i'm going to have to get it replaced at some point. does anyone have any advice for zippers coming apart? or is it a lost cause?

Hi

No, the tote that blake has (I posted it on pg37, #543).

I'm getting it, but my sister can't make up her mind on what she wants, so this is taking awfully long. She found this hombre prada which was beaut but out of stock. Sigh.

Oh and i'm not going with Catty anymore because the colour of the bag in her pics were a little off so i'm going with Philip.

Its been a while since I've been on here but I had to stop after losing my job coz lusting after bags and having zero money was too much!!

But I'm treating myself to a new Mulberry Bayswater for my 30th birthday (well my mum is!) so I was wondering if anyone has ordered it from Jacky or Catty recently? Is it the right leather (the older thicker Darwin type?) I got a Clipper from Jacky last year and it was the new spongy soft leather and looked terrible on the clipper (shoulda been the old thick grainy leather!) so I sent it back to him!
I'm worried he wont do the right leather on the Bayswater too...of course he says it is the right leather but he always does say what you want to hear i think lol!!!
Anyone else recommend another seller besides C or J?

ANY advice would be so welcome - and thanks so much in advance

Happy Easter

I agree, and I'm sorry to hear this happened. This has happened before, and you don't want to give customs any information whatsoever! J will reimburse half.

Do not give up on this and please don't let J reimburse you half as others have suggested. Just send them the "invoice" J sends you, edit it a bit (write sth like: brown artificial leather bag, red scarf, etc. without any brand names), they will send you a notice of how much you need to pay, it shouldn't be too much, you can pay it even online and you'll get your package as soon as you do so.

It happened to me while I lived in London, no problems whatsoever.

I think it's better to pay the charge than loose half and be left with nothing, no bags all.

someone on tPF said her sa told her it was orange/navy...
i've seen the bi-cabas and it's definitely navy, so i assume the clutch is the same color (it's a very dark blue)...

FINALLY! A Delightful PM. This bag is on my "I'll just die if I don't get this bag" list. How do you like it? The PM size seems large enough as I once saw a GM and it was just massive. It would have been a great bag to tote your dog around in - a Saint Bernard that is! If you wanted to post a mod shot, well.... how cool would that be, huh? From what I've "researched", Jacky's version seems to be pretty good - can you confirm this?
Congrats on all your purchases.

I recently received J's delightful PM too. Love the style, size and look BUT it's missing the extra trim on the side. The LV site shows the PM without the trim but all the modeling shots I've seen shows the authentic PM with the little vertical strip of trim. I've pointed it out to J but I'm not sure he believes me and has referred me to the LV site. Oh well. It's still an amazing bag and I'll use it anyway.
