STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

Okay, hopefully I will make you not want to buy this.  As much as I love LV, LV luggage is not a practical or smart choice. I used to be a luggage rep so I have analyzed this in detail. For one, LV is not known for luggage that lasts.  They make great purses but for luggage, this type of material does not wear well at all.  If something breaks it is costly and a hassle to get it fixed.  On top of that, if you ever need to check the piece, you'll have to cross your fingers that it won't get stolen (everybody else loves LV too-enough to steal it)...And if you ever do have to check it, you can be assured it won't come back in good shape (luggage routinely gets thrown around, especially behind the scenes)...My advice is to save that money and buy a LV handbag instead, and buy ugly but sturdy (ballistic nylon, inline skate wheels, ykk zippers) luggage...Just my two cents!
