My new LV Graphite camera-bag!

Recommended Posts

gioarmani

Hello again!

 

A few weeks ago I found a piece I wanted online but questioned the quality/reliability of the supplier, so I sent Ken over @ Bergie's a message asking if he could source a better one for me. In a few hours he had sent back pictures & pricing & I decided to snap it up.

 

About a week or so ago, I received my new bag (I added a camera-bag insert from eBay in order to turn this particular piece of LV luggage into a proper camera-bag).

 

The color is spot-on to the gen, the stitching is even & beautiful, and the details from the hardware to the engravings on the locks & whatnot are all top-notch. Money quite well-spent, in my opinion, but feel free to judge for yourself.

 

Here's the new Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite Roadster:

Trust me--the merchandise & service are fantastic--I've bought a slew of Zegna & Armani shirts, suits, luggage, purses for my girl, etc. I've never been disappointed.

 

Enjoy!

Bergie's been trusted on the boards for at least the 5 years I've been around.

Ken (Bergies) is THE most trustworthy dealers around - I have met him several times personally and bought from him over 2 years

 

I can absolutely recommend him

I never thought of something like that. I'm sure my camera gear would love to call something like that home.

Love your new bag. Mary sourced me a 'Spencer' man-bag, which after checking out the Gen several times, is an almost perfect rep.

I'll send Bergies a message for a few other bits I'm interested in - thanks for the tip.

That's REALLY nice. & a great idea! I might have to get a similar one for my gear!

 

1 question though... I bought a graphite bag once from a different seller and it was actually quite a decent quality. BUT the direction of the 'Louis Vuitton Paris' squares where opposite angle to the gen.

 

How does yours fair?

His is 100% accurate.. I was traveling yesterday and used both my duffle and back pack... I just checked both, especially the roadster duffle before I put it away in it's bag! Spot on, placement of the LV squares on the bag, and direction... crazy good

Nice! I might have to get one of those for my Leicas. How much did it cost? I'm considering a Billingham too. Also, what's the size of that insert?
