1st Time Buying Vintage Louis Vuitton on Japanese eBay

After hearing so many positives about buying designer goods from Japanese eBay sellers, I decided to try it out for myself. I found a preloved Louis Vuitton Cabas Mezzo tote bag in monogram canvas at a great price. After purchasing, a DHL mailer arrived at my door in three days. Sharing my experience as a buyer in this video, and showing a bit of my process to clean up the bag. Master Authentication confirmed my bag is legitimate.

Omg that was a steal! Wow! It’s not in bag condition. I love the honey patina, I would definitely rock that! Congrats 🎉 Vintage is so much better than the new. Awww your 🐰

[@sunshinefashionlove]

Thanks so much!!

[@redyredred6487]

Majority of my preloved bag purchases are from Japanese sellers! I definitely have my favorites too. I think this bag is beautiful! You scored for sure! ❤

[@sunshinefashionlove]

Awesome! I've had better luck with Japanese sellers, as they tend to be overly cautious with their listings and item conditions. At least I know what I'm getting.
When I've purchased from other sellers, I'd say at least 60% of the time, there were significant undisclosed flaws. Sometimes that turns an amazing deal into just an okay deal, or not even a good deal at all.

I have bought several LV bags from Japanese sellers through ebay over many years.
Have mostly been very satisfied :)
Your bag is so beautiful😍

[@sunshinefashionlove]

Thank you! What's the favorite bag in your collection?

[@fv64]

@@sunshinefashionlove My favorite bag from LV is probably the Noe bag. It is timeless and classic.
My black epi Noe gm bag from LV is the one I use the most. I bought it from a Japan seller in 2007.
I also have a epi Noe in the bicolor gold/fawn and a red eoi Noe, but I don't use them that much.

Can you share the link 🔗 I also wanna buy

[@PbjSanguich]

Was it authentic?

[@sunshinefashionlove]

Yes it went through eBay’s Authentication Center and I had it authenticated by another service as well.
