... because Spring is a long time coming.

In the meantime, I have finally found the blue that cheers me right up. After a fiasco of a purchase on the 'bay, and the sending of this beauty to BV for repair, and just receiving it back yesterday - I am so pleased. They gave the bag a complimentary spa, too, so she's just like new and man, does she feel good. Wish I knew what products they used...

Presenting the China (blue) Cervo Hobo from the F/W 2010 season - lovely purple suede lining - with my Oceano card case and my Nero Wallet ... and a stray Daffodil or two ...

Nice! May I ask what was done to your bag and also the cost? Thanks for sharing.:smile:

The magnet closure was broken (in that one magnet had moved to the other side of the bag.) It was repaired for free, but only because I mentioned strongly that it was an issue that should not have happened, and BV is strongly customer-service oriented, so they did not argue.

I've seen this particular issue in three Cervo Hobos I've owned in the past; this was the third that came to me 'damaged', so I'm guessing it's an issue that nobody talks about - .

Otherwise, I believe the magnet repair is $65.00 normally (as of 2/2014).

China was a beautiful color
it was the same year that Ink came into extistence
china was only made in althernative leathers
ie: Cervo, Croc, python etc
Only products in Nappa were made in Ink
congrats

Very blue-tiful India. I have been on the prowl for a new BV having received a lovely work bonus from my awesome boss. I used to wear a lot of blue when I lived in my hometown Boston. After seeing your bag and Grietje's, I may ditch my nero / gray quest and head for the blue and happy skies.
