Avoid Wasting Money: Louis Vuitton You Should Buy Preloved

[@sloftin]

LMAO! Instead of 'Preloved' it should be called 'Preliked for a minute.' :)

[@RakeedahsCloset]

😝 That is so much more accurate 🤣🤣🤣

[@shannon4light]

I’m lovin what they pre liked ❤!

[@Blaqwonderwoman]

😂😂😂😂

[@carlalp-hairgrowthjourney1877]

I love looking at your bags as you record your videos.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

🥰❤️

[@katlegoratshidi5070]

me too- I'm listening, but im really staring at the bags :'')

[@seagreen2034]

Hey friend! I buy designer sunglasses from either Nordstrom Rack or Saks Off 5th. They are new but significantly below retail. I use my toiletry pouches as catchalls in my bags. But with the prices these days, I don’t buy luxury ones anymore.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Yeah I had to do the moonwalk back on that one. Used sunglasses may not be the vibe 😩🤣🤣 Right! The MM cosmetics pouch are $700! NOPE. I will be using my “free gift with purchase” pouches 😎

[@brandygee9954]

Designer sunglasses can be found at Nordstrom Rack. I'm not breaking the bank for plastic/ acetate.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

PERIOD 😎

[@WinnieBeeLV]

Not me already buying a beat up Neverfull for $375! 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

WHAT 😳 Ma’am 🙌🏾🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@digitalgrrl79]

This is a great video topic! When I watched your unboxing of the multi pochette accessoires my first thought was, "I'm surprised this was purchased directly from the boutique since so many people have listed theirs on the second-hand market after the trend died down." But I totally understand wanting to be the first owner of an item that has been on your wishlist for a while and you see yourself loving it long-term. :]

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Exactly!! Some pieces are part nostalgia and part knowing I will get cost per wear because I will use it often. I have been using it all weekend and the first weekend I got it. I have to agree though. Most “trendy” pieces it’s smarter to wait until the hype calms down and purchase it used 🤷🏾‍♀️🥰❤️

[@BlackHeather777]

I’m a whole LV collector… why I’m I just subscribing to your channel? I’m glad I watched this. I have a black MCM never full style bag and it’s a workhorse for me. I was thinking of purchasing a new never full.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Better now than never Sis ❤️❤️❤️ Well if you have the MCM that’s a workhorse than you can get the NF new! But if you think you are going to alternate between the NF and MCM than I would get the NF used 🤷🏾‍♀️🥰

[@DazzleMe77]

You are so hilarious! Great points!! TFS

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Oh thank you friend ❤️🥰❤️

[@jjenae629]

This is the video we needed! 2 Alma BBs in my collection were preloved.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

YAS ! A good deal on a Classic 🙌🏾Love to see it 🥰❤️

[@ketomama2032]

Here for it sis! You're spot on with preloved...let's call it what it is, used. They didn't love it or they wouldn't have sold it. Hilarious! I'm over here busting out on a Delta flight. People looking at me crazy 😂

[@RakeedahsCloset]

You know the luxury community got to be fancy 🙄🤣🤣 We both know the truth…it’s used 😝🤣🤣🥰❤️

[@lovebug83flower36]

❤❤😂😂Thank you for great content again 😂😂😂I don’t blame you…my anxiety set up the same way as yours…me and you both will be on the no fly list🤦🏽‍♀️🤭 We think alike‼️ We might be related 💕💕

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Sis you and me both will be setting up road trips together because we can’t fly 🤣🤣🤣 Just on the road like Thelma and Louise 😎😎

[@sbpinki]

Bought a pre loved LV zippy and took it to the boutique to refurbish ❤still paying less than half. I’ll use it for a few months and see if I love it. If so I’ll get a new one tax free and sell the vintage ❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

NICE!! See there are bargains to be had 🥰 Love that for you friend! Congratulations ❤️

[@jaks_bag_attack]

I am all for preloved loved again ❤️

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Yup! Period 😎🥰

[@SONYARenee]

I have three Neverfulls. Two MM and one PM sz. My first Neverfull monogram was purchased 07’, and I had it sent to LV to be redone. Bag is completely new. My second the PM monogram. I wanted the pouch lol. I purchased in Ohio. Cost me 2,112., and The DE MM I purchased here in Japan cost me 1,558. I was pissed about the Ohio PM costing me more. Since being here I have purchased the kirigami, GM Louise earrings, and the PM agenda for way less than being in the US at the LV store. I have been purchasing pre-love off and on and found some amazing steals for barely anything. Last week I purchased at the thrift store a vintage Amazon pm. I have virtual an LV appt tomorrow. One connector is cracked. I'm going to replace both. Its vintage but smells new. I purchased a Steven Sprouse Pochette accessoires and a vintage nano speedy a couple days ago. I have a couple things on my pre love list and I'm done. LV prices are ridiculous. I purchased a preloved Keepall Bandoulière 60, I believe was around 500 something here. Has a little watermarks on the handle but looks good. Loving the video as using ❤❤.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

OMG! You have some amazing finds! See that’s why I’m afraid to shop in Europe and Japan. The prices are WAY better. I’m going to come back to the states with a whole attitude trying to start a protest 🫣😝🤣 I need to see these Louise earrings because they sound fancy 🥰 OKAY beautiful I see you 🥰❤️🥰❤️

[@mashondaknight9132]

I love preloved i brought a quite a few louis vuitton, ysl and other designer bags its the best.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

It can REALLY be a great deal if you know what to look for 🤗

[@TheHopefulminimalist]

Very true! This was helpful 😊

[@TheHopefulminimalist]

Definitely prefer to be mad over being angry 😭😂😭😂

[@RakeedahsCloset]

I'm so glad! 🥰❤️

[@mollypapazian4423]

I sold my 1854 denim mm 'cause she sat on my shelf for 4 years and never got used.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Oh yeah! Miss Ma’am had to go

[@mollypapazian4423]

@RakeedahsCloset innocent blister on my knee turned into bacterial infection. Apparently, I'm still staying 🏥 tonight. Made 💯 wishlist out of boredom!

[@Davids_Closet]

I love preloved but for real about the Chanel classic flaps! I want one so bad but that new price is insane! 😂❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

INSANE 😩😩🤣❤️❤️

[@Mary_305]

Great content! I like preloved LV better deals and the quality is better. My Keepall is preloved and some SLG. 🥰

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Definitely better deals, especially if you’re patient 🥰

[@iyamom4]

Rakeeda, your gif's are on point!

[@RakeedahsCloset]

They are the gifs of my life 🫣🤣🤣🤣🥰

[@jameshbrown1478]

thank you exactly why pay all these crazy prices if you can get them authentic from fashionfile love your sense of humor ❤❤❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Exactly!! Thank you James 🥰❤️

[@Swatchstrike]

The preloved neverfulls are the same price of the brand new boutique ones tho friendddddd lol and some be busted with no pouch 🥲 I gotta buy new

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Listen I can’t disagree with new 😍 You know your friend LOVE a new from the boutique vibe 😝🤣🥰❤️

[@christinahernandez8870]

Yesss thank you friend I’m loving this and I’m here for it 😅❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

We are always here for saving a little coin 😝😎❤️

[@Jenn888]

Hear! Hear! I have been looking for pre-loved lately .. unless it is a special collection 🤫. Thanks for the laughs 🙃.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

You’re welcome friend 😊🥰

[@totesgene]

Agree with all your points. Good video. Yes on the Horizon. The thought of them making you put that under the plane. Horror.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

I can just imagine the headache that would be 😳

[@totesgene]

@@RakeedahsCloset I'd get off the plane. No way I'd put something like that under.

[@jbbb7418]

They say preloved to get us to part with more coin! “Preloved” is just a marketing gimic. It’s used, and that is the price I’m paying, a used price! I’m not paying new prices for a 20 year old item, I don’t care what it is.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

You better tell them friend 😎🥰

[@jbbb7418]

😂😂

[@1111KO]

COSMETIC BAGS: I (sheepishly) did spend $1,500+ on the re-launched LV Toiletry Trio, smh. But, it's a keeper, because I wanted the trifecta, out the gate, without having to buy all 3 pre-loved, at a combined MUCH HIGHER COST. -But yeah, outside of that... all others, moving forward, will 1st be searched pre-loved.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

With the Trio coming out it is a much better buy than to try and get them separately! I completely agree!

[@janinelajo-nj1sy]

HI! just want to ask. Have you tried scanning the microchip of your LV speedy B25 denim? ive been trying for hours already using the NFC TOOLS app but the app just cant locate and read the chip. What's the chip location of yours tho?

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Hello! No I never tried. I have no idea where it’s located 😩 Never had a reason to look or ask my CA

[@EdBraun137]

Great video friend ❤

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Thank you friend ❤️

[@thehopefulbudgeter]

The only time I would want a brand new spankin neverfull is to customize it with the “colorful stripes/initials” from the Heritage Line” that’s my only exception! 😂 I’ve made up my mind! As for the Chanel classic flap I went last week and after tax the SA told me it was an outrageous $11,730! Excuse me!????!!!!! 😰🫣 NO TY. 😂 everyone I know now is going to Japan ✈️ for their FIRST 24K vintage Chanel. Can’t blame em, at this point I’m gunna do the same. 😂 The DIOR bags give “princess Diana” vibes to me. Very feminine energy and proper. It’s no surprise they named the bag after her, too. lol. I like LV because it’s just more edgy, casual, and creative to me.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

$11,730 😳 Oh they can go to hell 😩 I want to get a Speedy in the Heritage line. Dior definitely gives princess vibes. I love that for other people, just not for me. You and I gravitated towards Louis Vuitton for the same reasons friend 🥰❤️❤️❤️

[@thehopefulbudgeter]

@@RakeedahsCloset Team Louie through and through! 💁🏻‍♀️😂🤣 I feel you! But have u seen the keepall with the Camo design? I know it’s an oldie but goodie, but that one’s 🔥🔥🔥 on you. Wouldn’t be surprised if u had that one already. 😍😜😎

[@SONYARenee]

Before I leave Japan, I will be buying two in different colors. I will be DAMN if I'm moving 11,000 out of my savings to buy a bag. I don't see how they do it, but to each there own. I purchased a VTG 1996 Medium patent Black Top Handle Kelly Medium for 1,600 and some change here in Japan last month.

[@handbagluvin]

The Gucci WOC is a nice size ..Chanel WOC too small

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Okayyyy!!!! The Gucci WOC can carry your everyday essentials?

[@ynotbkandi]

[@JanieceStyles]

Lmao, not the underwear store. Girl. 😂😂😂😂. You said they probably didn't love it. Lol. Yeah, that makes sense because of the use. Thanks for the information.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Yes maam!! I LOVE buying second hand!! “They’re on government assistance right now” GIRL I AM HOLLERING😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!!

[@rosahinson2166]

But that Eclipse with the turquoise trim❤❤❤❤.

[@RakeedahsCloset]

OMG 😳 Why do I have that save RIGHT NOW 🥰

[@pattywilliams788]

Rakeedah, this video started out with two OG the Color Purple sayings in my head: “Don't do it Miss Celie. Don't trade places with what I been through” for the beginning warning. And then when you said “I’m a stop playing one day” and I went “Harpo, who dis woman?” Gurl, you are a hoot! Now, about the preloved or used sunglasses? Naw, ma’am. That’s all I got to say. 💁🏾‍♀️

[@RakeedahsCloset]

🤣🤣🤣 I gotta find a “Harpo who dis woman” clip because that’s a classic 😝🤣🤣🤣

[@JoleeLovesIt]

Ahh the old “look at nails trick” reference 😊

[@RakeedahsCloset]

Sometimes you have to bring it back to the basics 😝🤣🥰

[@keyofb1274]

sunglasses stretched out to someone head / face 😂
