## Description
If you wish to purchase, please message me in advance to confirm stock and condition.

Tray (2.5 million yen). 55 x 31 x 24 cm.
*Unique canvas material with a casual finish, this item was very popular for daily use, especially among women. It comes with a special dog tag attached! Certificate of authenticity is included. The vachetta leather is absolutely pristine.
(*This time, as a special service, I will include a non-saleable mousepad with the same design. This is also being traded at high prices.)

In 2008, the collaboration with Takashi Murakami shocked the fashion scene with the Monogram Camo. Among these, the Keepall, tray, and Pegase were nearly impossible to find in stores, instantly selling out over a mythical limited supply. Over the last two decades... prices have continuously risen in secondary markets, and there have been instances where new items sold for more than 4 million yen on international auction sites. It seems unlikely that values will drop in the future; this is expected to be a prized collectible worth its investment value.
Incidentally, many Louis Vuitton store staff are unaware of this item, leading to comments like, "You have a precious item there!" when shown.

Most items sold in flea markets or secondary markets are previously owned with damages or fading, yet even those in good condition can trade for around 2 million yen.

It is believed that opportunities to find brand new, unused items like this are exceedingly rare globally, making it a worthy consideration as a lifelong investment.
Please be aware of the following precautions when making a purchase:

(*Precautions)
1. In the past, some unreasonable individuals have directly called me to negotiate in person with phrases like, "I want to see it." Please refrain from such actions. Appropriate measures will be taken against any harassing behavior.
2. Before bidding, please confirm stock and notify whether you are interested in purchasing individually (by model name) or as a set.
3. There have been occasions where individuals placed prank bids, causing cancellation due to my oversight (mistake), attempting to collect a 10% fee even on unsuccessfully concluded transactions (even from Yahoo auction management). This has escalated to necessary actions from my lawyer, who is well-versed in electronic commerce, and it has been a major news topic, covered by leading newspapers. Thus, I urge everyone to be cautious.
4. The item comes with an official guarantee, so please refrain from asking if it is genuine.
5. As it is a rare premium item, I do not accept returns due to concerns like item swapping.
6. Please be understanding of minor storage-related scratches that may be present but are not noticeable.
7. In addition, I will be listing the same series Keepall (Boston) and Pegase (carry-on) shortly, so please consider those as well.
8. Because I often travel, the shipping process may take up to one week in the event of timing issues. I will notify you of such circumstances in advance.

Only those who can understand and accept the above conditions should consider bidding and making immediate payments.

## Collector note
The 2008 Takashi Murakami × Louis Vuitton Monogram Camo collaboration stands as one of fashion's most decisive crossover moments, with the Keepall, Pegase, and particularly this tray representing the rarest pieces from an extremely limited production run that sold through instantly at retail. The Camo canvas line has experienced sustained secondary market appreciation—authenticated examples in worn condition trade around ¥2M, with pristine specimens commanding ¥4M+ on international platforms—driven by scarcity, the prestige of the artist collaboration, and the cohort of collectors who view early-run Japanese domestic pieces as foundational investment-grade items. Condition is paramount in this market: unused examples with intact vachetta leather and original packaging carry a significant premium, as the majority of surviving pieces show wear from daily use typical of a 2008 release.
