Last weekend I purchased my Neverfull MM from the Louis Vuitton store in Green Hills. I had already gone a few weeks ago to see the different bags which helped me decide which one to purchase.
A few tips that I highly recommend for buying a LV. 1. Research- I did heavy researching on the neverfull. As you may know, they just slightly changed the style and added the clutch (which raised the price). I watched YouTube reviews on interior color, sizing, and durability. I decided to purchase the MM. The GM is great for travel but the MM seems more suitable for me in everyday use. I also ordered a purse bling organizer insert to help protect the inside lining. 2. Making an investment (yes, investment) in a LV is a big purchase so be sure that this is what you want. I had a hard time deciding between the Alma PM in damier ebene or the neverfull but decided on the neverfull because I know I will use it more. 3. Lastly, try on the bag in the store and make sure you like the way it looks on you. To me, the monogram print is great year-round. The damier ebene is great for fall-winter and the damier azur is perfect for spring-summer. I chose the monogram again as it is iconic, but if I were to get another bag I would go with one of the damier prints.
My mom gave me a speedy 25 when I was 18, and it is still in really great condition. These purses last for years and that is why so many vintage LVs are on the market and sell for more than new LVs.
The brand is amazing and has great heritage as well as the product. The customer service is also top notch. My main recommendation is to make sure you really like the brand and research which bag and which size best suits your needs.
