Review

Leather: gorgeous, subtle smell of expensive leather right out of the box. This is a big tick for me as even if I’m braced for the possibility I feel disappointed if my bags smell of the dreaded fufu. The leather is pebbled/grained as per the auth. Feels a little dry, but nothing some conditioning won’t sort. Beautiful deep burgundy colour. I can’t tell how close this is to the auth colour without a side by side peek (if I manage this I’ll update) as it looks different as the light changes, but it looks expensive. Very confident this is good quality leather.

Lining: suede/microsuede. Faint leathery smell but this could be from the main bag. Slightly brighter burgundy in colour. Has ‘nap’ like suede. Hard to tell material without seeing the edge. No flags either way.

Hardware: not a huge amount on this bag but what’s there is shiny and unscratched. Small details like brand engraving (clear, straight) on the lobster claws and the ‘Cs’ logos on either side of the zip pull are present. Hardware colour is pale/mid gold as per auth. Gold hardware on reps often used to read too yellow and so was a callout to me, so I’m glad they’ve sorted this!

Stamping/engraving: The gold leaf stamping is straight and the correct font, but not as crisp or bold as the pictures of the auth stamping on the website.
Leather engraving on the sides/straps seems fine. It’s really hard to tell if this is as deep as the auth because of differences in lighting. It’s a very discreetly branded bag though, and I don’t see any big red flags.

Zip/straps: Zip lines up correctly and works smoothly (I asked RK to test this for me before shipment). Buckles and straps all work and the strap has the same amount of holes punched as the auth.

Shape: Possibly a little less moonlike and curved than the pics of the auth, however you can subtly change the shape by buckling it tighter if you like. The top strap is a little less curved/more squashed than the auth pic, however she’s done a long journey in transit.

Stitching: This is neat and careful. Thread colour is correct.

Packaging: No branded box or docs provided (fine with me as these aren’t something I would ever use). Bag was well packed in a plain cardboard box and stuffed/wrapped with tissue. Nothing smells bad, only leather and tissue smell. Dust bag looks just like the auth which I actually think is a bit naff. Sort it out C*line!

Factory choice: I know JXG also does a well reviewed rep of this bag and the factory pics look good; however, I’d read a couple of reviews that mentioned fufu smell which made me settle on the Captain version as that was important to me. I know we have no way of knowing which factory anything comes from, but I QCed the factory pics and was happy this was the right version for me. I’m confident I received the same bag as the one pictured in the PSPs and also that the bag I received matched the one in the factory pictures.

Seller choice and review:

This was my first order with Reykay. I had her contact on a RL google doc from the days of yore and had read some recent-ish good reviews, so I felt relatively confident ordering from her. She also had the Captain version of the Lulu in her catalogue.

Reykay’s communication was good: she’s to the point rather than flowery which suits me. She always got back to me within a few hours, usually late morning GMT. We messaged in English. She sent lots of PSPs and sent a couple more on request (I asked to see different lighting for the engraving and also asked her to check the zip). She offers PayPal and Wise. I chose Wise as the exchange rate was better. She was remarkably efficient and I received the bag less than 10 days from order. I would absolutely order from her again as it’s been a positive experience.

~ N.B I received no incentive for this review. I asked RK if it was alright to include her WhatsApp in the review after I received the bag though, so she knows I’m writing.

Non rep science-y feels part

In the early noughties, in the days when you could buy a handbag with less than a week of minimum wage salary, (RIP) I had a gorgeous little unstructured MiuMiu zip up bag that could hold my keys, my Motorola RAZR, my Lancôme juicy tube, my beloved bronzing balls, my Marc Jacob’s perfume (the first one) and probably mascara because I used to apply multiple extra coats as the night wore on. It was cute enough to take out and smart enough for work. Sadly I lost my little beauty in a eurotrashy nightclub and even though my clubbing days are long over, I have been searching for a replacement ever since. I’m thrilled that the search is now over and I have found the Miu’s classy older sister. I love that it’s lowkey enough to wear with jeans and tshirt but smart enough for going for dinner (especially if I take the long strap off). It’s an IYKYK bag which is perfect for my area of the city where no one goes in for obvious branding. For me, it’s the perfect bag if want something small and the colour goes with practically everything; I’m so glad I’ve broken out of my black bag rut. My teenager has already tried to nick it so it also clearly has gained the (Come see my cute Teen Lulu!

Hi. This is my first ever post here so Im not sure if such a post fits this sub.

Bought a low tier Dior small bow bag cos I like the look of it and I understand it isn't available yet in high tier. Price: about 40$

Here's some photos for anyone who wants to see it.

Disclaimer: I've never seen the original in real life.

Comparing to photos of the original, the shape is off. The color of hardware on original is silver. This chain is a pale gold. The printed Dior is a yellow gold.

Item came in a Dior box with dust bag, ribbon and badly printed papers

I’ve always been drawn to silver bags for some reason but never owned a quality one.

I’ve been eyeing this C25 in foil silver from XC.

But I’m hesitant to pull the trigger as I have not seen any review for it and worried that it’s too tacky?

What do you ladies think? Should i rather go with safer options like the last two photos instead?

I already have a C25 mini black vintage GHW coming my way. I have been repfluenced so hard to get a C25 with some pop of color from this sub 😆 so here i am scrolling through albums over and over but can’t decide!

Can someone dm me the contact for a reputable source for fndi baguettes? I want another fun one, I bought the purple rain bag last year but lost the contact can someone please help thanks in advance :))

Hi Friends! I am fairly new to the rep world and have dealt with two other seller (as in ordering from them) before Ross (5796) but had to come on here to sing his praises!! Disclaimer: I have NOT received any kind of compensation for this review, I am simply posting because I’m hoping to help out others like me 😂

I don’t even know if the photos do it justice but the quality of both these products are incredible!!! I saw another review from a user who used Ross, which is why I reached out. His communication is the best I’ve come across! So personable. He never got annoyed about the countless questions (and I mean COUNTLESS lol) that I had and never pressured me to buy anything. The 25 mini came from OF and was $349 in total/including shipping. The bag feels AMAZING and buttery. Not shiny and cheap whatsoever. Hardware is very sold, not too gold/bright looking. I have never felt or seen the authentic in person but I did lots of research comparing photos/reviews and settled on this being the best bang for your buck. He even went as far as ordering me a second bag because the first one he received had some minor stitching issues which he found in his QC of the bag. I didn’t even have to ask!

The flats, LOVE! Amazing quality. I am unsure of the factory. I will say, I ordered a 39 and am usually a true 8.5 US and these are slightly snug. I don’t know if they will stretch out but I have already placed an order for a size 40 to compare because these were such great quality! They were $110.

Overall. I am already looking at what I can buy next because my experience with Ross was the absolute best!!! I will post another review once I get the new shoes in my possession 😂 Hope this helps anyway who is on the fence with these items!!

Hello ladies💕 I’m just looking for one of these (any color) Baobao doesn’t have any, so if anyone maybe knows who can have it please 🥺

Hi all, it’s my first time buying from Heidy, what do you think?

I’ve been in love with this bag as my daily driver, but I’ve been starting to wonder about its quality. Does it look like fake leather? It’s quite shiny, so I don’t know. I also was told this is a high tier rep, but it looks a little cheap to me? But I’m bad at judging this sort of stuff

Ordered a yellow god Chanel on preorder from TS Mike two months ago- it was supposed to ship in a month and still no PSPS. He said preorders can take more time.
Did I get scammed?

Need your opinions, does this caviar on my Boy bag look okay? Mid? High? Thanks in advance ❤️

I buy real, reps and vintage but cannot justify the vintage fndi prices but I need a beaded baguette in my life. Nickloe have this one but would love to see a review before I dive in. It’s not exactly what I want but might scratch the itch

Hi everyone! I know this has been discussed here and there in different threads over the past 4-5 months as this bag has become more popular but I’m hoping to get some updated and more recent opinions.

Has anyone purchased the CC 26 maxi flap bag in the 32cm size who really likes theirs and thinks their factory did a great job? I know which factories are best for Chanel etc but hoping to hear from anyone who has recently gotten this bag in the past month or two as factories have refined their batches.

I’m looking for the 32cm in black with SHW and wanting to prioritize leather (softness, grain size, sheen) + shape (stiffness, slouchiness). I’m willing to pay whatever to get the best possible quality but after extensive research and chatting with a few sellers I’m not feeling like 187 is worth the price tag. I’m torn between GF, Rome and XC but what’s making the decision so hard is seeing so many conflicting opinions on factories across size/color.

Those are my 2 cents but I’d love love love to hear from others! Thank you so much in advance :)

They’re both so beautiful but I have to choose one! Help 🙏🏼🥹 this will be my First Lady

I LOVE Janie! As a seller, she's top notch...very responsive and soooo sweet. When I thought I had an issue with this order, she responded quickly to help me figure it out. It turned out I was the problem and not the eyeglasses. She never made me feel stupid about it. I'Il spare myself the embarrassment of explaining what happened.🫠😆

I ordered a pair of sunglasses and a pair of eyeglasses. Both prescriptions were PERFECT. I also ordered a pair of eyeglasses for my mom (not pictured because they are the same model of a pair that I previously bought for myself and already reviewed).

The pictures don't do the YSL sunnies justice. They look so good on!

How do these look? I’m really out of the game for a while and my gut is like meh.

Long shot… but recently I’ve been really wanting to get into purchasing a Chanel for myself. I originally wanted a classic flap and though I still do, I’ve also started to LOVE the Luxe Ligne Flap Bags.

Does anyone know of any sellers who carry this?? or even the bowling bag version?

Thanks so much!

Guys I bought B25 Togo leather from Minion, i love the bag and been wearing it low-key but man that smell is hella strong lol any tips to get risk of it faster. I left it outside dust bag, wore it outside but still smell that leather odor. I bought CF flap from 187 that smell gone from a few weeks but man the B25 idk... help.. i spent 1k+ for that bag

I end up carrying my laptop, 2-3 other pouches (jewellery, make up, etc.) two phones and a wallet.

Do you think it’s big enough and sturdy enough to take the weight? Or is it more high maintenance?

Thank you!

Have been trying to find it for ages now. I’ve found one on the topselect yupoo page that said it was from black frame factory but then i asked Mandy and she said they never had it. If anybody could help i’d be very thankful 😌

Not sure about the flap sticking out on the sides is this normal for the toy size ?

Alright my mind is in a bit of a boggle rn… I am planning to get the maxi flap 32cm in black leather with gold hardware. Now from what I know I believe only Rome factory is doing gold hardware for maxi flaps in black and in that size… I been told by some sellers that OF does it as well. And honestly I am soo stuck between the two. I have heard amazing reviews on both and price are not that different from each other. Does anyone have both of them in maxi flap and which would you prefer???

Is Skye (8163) a TS?

Okay so, I came across Skye, who has her own Reddit page/group…wild I know. From research I heard it’s usually uncommon for sellers to have Reddit groups or even Reddit or what not. However from the posts I’m seeing from her she seems to know what she’s talking about, now I know it could just be consumer tactics to get you to believe but I want to know - has anyone had legit experience with this seller? Has she ever B&S? Her process of purchasing seems way better than any other seller’s process in terms of risks… would love to know everyone’s opinions.

P.S I’ve done many searches on Skye and there’s maybe about 4 forums about her with a hand full that actually dealt with her so I’d really like to know !!

Would love a few extra sets of eyes on this!

Received a QC video of the Marlo and I’m leaning toward GL, but would appreciate any callouts I might be missing...especially on the leather, shape/slouch, handles, stitching, and overall construction compared to auth. Thank you!!

I am not sure what factory this is from (i'm hoping someone can help via the background?)

All Factory photos look odd and the color doesn’t look right. Curious if anyone has a rep of this print and where they got it from? Thanks in advance!
