caroulemapoulen- your bag is amazing!

haha I was so worried about authenticity and excited to actually have found one, I didn't stop to realize there was no size. I will message her and see. Thanks everyone for your quick responses!

I would take it back or call whoever you bought it from to look for a repair.

You all seem to love this bag. I feel like I NEED to add it to my collection!!!!!

Megs, this is the perfect bag! The dimensions are great, the shoulder strap is the right length, the pockets are good sizes to store everything you would need to carry and it's so stylish in a subtle way. It is logo free and simple, yet I am asked about mine constantly. I can't rave enough about the PS1.

Yes, you NEED it. :)

For the broken clasp, I think you should take it back or see if they will repair it for you. They will probably need to open up the lining in the front pocket to get the back of the clasp to line up right with the clasp assembly. Did any screws fall off when it broke? It looks like there are screws that hold the clasp on.

Megs, I agree with KittyKat65. The PS1 is a phenomenal bag, both stylish and practical. It's very well thought-out, with lots of pockets but not so many that it appears cluttered. And the leather is just amazing. I have three PS1s now and I love them!

Carmen: Oh gosh! I feel so bad for you! I'm sure you can get an exchange or at very least have it repaired at their expense. It just sucks to have to send it away, when you've only just received it!

Megs: I think the appeal is (at least for me) that the bag is looks really classic, but at the same time has a cool, retro vibe. And the variety of sizes, colours and materials is a plus, too!

Thank you everyone, I am very sad

I emailed them yesterday and I hope to get an answer tomorrow since I am going away for a week from tuesday.

I wore it when it happend and I was lucky enough to discover it before the clasp was fallen off. It actulla hang in one screw when I found it and then it fell off into my hand when I touched it. I had noticed earlier that it closed kind of vague, but was in a hurry, so I didn't took any further notice.

I really just want a new bag, it just isn't okay with a fix up. It's too expensive for that I think. :( I hope I get a new one. And they will of course have to pay for ALL shipping expenses!

These bads are amazing. Im completely in love with them.

What do you guys think of using them as a bag for men (either carrried by hand, or slung over my shoulder)??

ps. caroulemapoulen - your bag is amazing - my favourite, as well as the crocodile version.... but it retails for £10,000!!
