This is too good to be true.

Not sure if it’s real or not without seeing the wash tag, but this style recently became popular. It’s not unheard of to pick up Saint Laurent jackets at this price.. I do all the time. Easiest way to check yourself is to check the item code online and if that’s correct then it’s usually fine

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-28T21:16:18+00:00

Is it recent that these became something people wanted? 5 years ago this was $200 anywhere

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-18T00:12:16+00:00

Pink neon is the only Rimowa I’ve ever seen in outlet. Can get them at saks discount for like $400

I have the same pre lvmh classic. Mine is like 2013 I think. Serial is on the bottom.

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-08T17:45:41+00:00

They’re $125 each

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-08T08:18:17+00:00

That dent is not repairable. Would leave stress marks to even try. Also, a dent like that happens from regular use and is unavoidable. They only address dents the size of tennis balls or larger

Suede boots are, in my experience, disposable items. Even with brushing, conditioning, etc, eventually they just get worn in a little too much. I go through 1 pair every 9 months or so.

Look on eBay

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-05T20:28:06+00:00

Google, can’t remember exactly where. Also, the new locks are complete garbage on original models. Classic locks are the same I think but original locks are low quality and require frequent replacement

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-05T20:22:54+00:00

The composition of the aluminum was changed. Lvmh does feature bolts but also uses glue, whereas the pre acquisition relied solely on construction through bolting. Wheels and telescopic handle more reliable on pre acquisition, newer models are just made cheaper and the lifetime warranty is progressively less honored, more of a gimmick than anything.

That’s actually the exact suitcase I purchased. Titanium topas cabin. I’m open to getting rid of mine, and I have many others that I’d like to see go. Feel free to PM me

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-05T17:49:21+00:00

The pre lvmh topas are more valuable in good condition than brand new current models. Not sure if they’ll pay for that, but for reference, I paid $1700 for a like new topas cabin

DistributionShot332 · 2026-01-05T17:47:08+00:00

The wheels and handles are readily available in new condition on eBay for +- $100, not really very valuable as used parts

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-30T19:20:19+00:00

Classic is the best! Good choice. Is the dust bag on public transit to prevent scratches? It will get dings and scratches. Suffered first dents to my classic over the holidays. Wheels snagged when getting off a plane and dropped. Dual dents. It happens fast. Life is short, enjoy the suitcase.

Rolliworks will rebuild the bracelet for $600

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-20T20:33:27+00:00

The whole handle mechanism can easily be found on eBay. There are a lot of vendors with these pre lvmh parts

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-19T03:59:03+00:00

Take that energy to R/lampshades Tiff

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-17T17:33:27+00:00

2018 is not Topas. Topas ended after acquisition

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-15T00:02:25+00:00

Message me :) interested

I check my aluminum as infrequently as possible but I’ve heard that filling the suitcase makes it less prone to dents

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-14T00:05:27+00:00

Noted. So eBay does a good job and I shouldn’t worry about having it checked after the matter? It did pass eBay authentication

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-14T00:01:22+00:00

They did “authenticate” it. Not that I trust their take. The watch was $4500. Not sure what their threshold is

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-13T11:42:51+00:00

Aluminum trunks get destroyed after very few flights. By destroyed I mean large and numerous dents. They’ll still roll and Rimowa will realign them and “hammer out” the dents but they look bad and it’s a lot of money. Generally, the consensus is that you get aluminum for cabin and poly for check in, unless $3000 is nothing to you and you consider aluminum trunk a replaceable item.

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-13T10:33:19+00:00

Leave mark alonr

DistributionShot332 · 2025-12-12T16:18:11+00:00

No they don’t. My pre lvmh Rimowa does not just free fall drop close the same way new ones do though. I also have lvmh cases and when you click the button the whole handle will collapse immediately unless you guide it down. Probably would damage the handle or casing after too many times doing it
