About Us

Many of you have known me over the years from eBay ID "MrsTroppo".  "Troppo" is not a name but an Italian word often used in music terms.  We are using this word for our business name.
eBay was my starting point of selling used Louis Vuitton, but an overwhelming number of requests led us to open a web shop here.  We are not a fly-by-night Louis Vuitton seller, and we do not give you just a couple of pictures and a paragraph of description.  We have handled over 600 Louis Vuitton items in the past 5 years.

Due to the nature of our items (pre-owned), we try to describe each item as detailed as possible so that you can be comfortable knowing the condition.  If you are looking for new, mint, or perfect items, we are less likely to have them.  So please know that 99% of our items are used.

We are not affiliated with the Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy Group.  Louis Vuitton only has "official" anything within itself.  There is no wholesale, discounts, factory rejects, or warehouse clearance.  

While online trading is saturated with fakes and criminals, our items' authenticity is 100% guaranteed.
We have extensively studied authentication for years, and there is no guessing.  If we question authenticity by any degree, the item is submitted to Louis Vuitton for authentication.  So please enjoy your visit and feel free to contact us with any questions concerning our items for sale.  Courteous, friendly, and professional staff will answer your email very quickly.

About Our Items

What we offer is pre-owned (used) items.  Once any article leaves a Louis Vuitton boutique and is handled, we do not consider it "brand new".  "Brand new" and "unused" are different by our definition.

Our specialty is the classic Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas line.  Other fabrics (such as Damier, Epi, Taiga, etc.) or limited special editions (such as Cherry Blossom, Multi Color, etc. ) are not the majority of our items but offered in a limited quantity. 

Most used pieces have some blemishes or changes, compared to what you get straight from a boutique.  They may have stains, scuffs, discoloration, broken stitches, darkened leather (not considered a blemish), scratches, and so on.  We try to offer items without major blemishes that affect functionality or overall appearance, such as severe stains, cuts/holes/tears/cracks, or loose/broken stitches.  Many items are submitted to Louis Vuitton for repair, such as re-stitching or replacement of pocket linings prior to offering them for sale.  However, there is no guarantees or warranties that we can offer other than authenticity of the item, as we cannot predict which thread is getting weak and about to break, when zippers may get sticky, When the leather wears out, and so forth.  Each item is inspected thoroughly and priced according to the degree of blemishes.  So please understand you are looking at "used" items, and our items may not be for you if you are looking for "even tanning of the leather", "no stains", "no scuffs", and so on.  We try our best to describe blemishes as thoroughly as possible, but we cannot present every inch of the item online.

Odors are perceived very differently by different individuals.  Due to the nature of "used" items, our items may have odors.  We usually do not know if the previous owner is a smoker, a frequent visitor to a smoky bar, a pet owner, or caused any stains that may result in a specific odor.  When the odor is obvious, we mention it in the description.  However, if you are extremely sensitive to any particular odor, used items are not for you.  For example, I cannot stand a hint of "musty or mildew" odors (makes me cry) that does not bother my husband as much.  I am not bothered by perfume or make up scents, but they bother him a great deal.  So if you have a sensitivity or allergy, you should avoid used items.

Thank you for visiting.
