How long have you been using yours? Mine could still look like new in a picture or from a distance but the brass has gotten scratched, and I'm somewhat careful, I've been using mine for about a year straight, I just decided to give it a break and bought something new, but it's gonna scratch, I don't want to mislead anyone to think this clasp is scratch resistant because it's def. not!!! Some small scratching may really bother someone, and if that's the case they shouldn't get this wallet IMO! There are other options out there, though this is a wonderful wallet.....LivinLuxuriously said:

I was showing her the Koala CARD wallet! She seemed to be concerned about the change purse or even using it, so I figured I'd introduce her to the option, if she's considering not even using the zip change pocket or uses a separate change purse like me (cles) then this may be a good option for her......Bag Fetish said:
Are these two different wallets ? Why does one have a clear pocket and the other doesnt?
Read through the earlier posts where I was talking to her about it please.....

Mine's the koala wallet. The other is the koala card holder. This is why I was confused too!
I've been using mine for a year straight - of course there are some little dings, but they're not noticeable. I'm not careful with it at all - afterall, it is just a wallet

thank you.
the name card holder can be confusing too, b/c it really is like a full wallet, just without a change purse, it has a billfold and everything, the little window is for a small picture like the size of the mini picture holders they sell.....when I saw it in person last year and bought it I was reallly surprised, I was expecting it to have a very limited interior and just open spots for cards, but it's actually set up quite nicely....
sorry to have confused anyone, and it seems like this is a piece that get's overlooked a lot (the card holder).....but I LOVE it!LivinLuxuriously said:Mine's the koala wallet. The other is the koala card holder. This is why I was confused too!

Both wallets look great. Something I've never thought of.
I used to use a similar style wallet and loved it. I however didnt like where the paper money went and found i was alway just folding it up and stuffing it behind my cards. I did like though that it carried about 12 cards.
Maybe I might think about this wallet since now days we dont carry much money. Everything is debit card

There's a bifold too, so that you don't have to squash your money
It holds alot.yeah, the card holder has a bill area and a flat pocket on the back where the zip coin purse is on the full size Koala wallet, it's a fun little piece, but like I've said, it seems very overlooked by SA's for some reason, the SA that sold it to me actually tried to talk me out of it for the full size instead, I was like no way it's too perfect for me.....and get this, it was only like $390/Hawaii, so like $4something here, and this was two price increases ago, so I was VERY happy with the price point too!!!LivinLuxuriously said:There's a bifold too, so that you don't have to squash your money
I tried to pull the bill area and paper pocket in this picture so you could see....

dont you find it hard to put your bills in that pocket ?
I have been eyeing the Koala wallet for a while now. I went to the LV boutique yesterday and looked at some of the styles. So cute! I wish I could get them all! 
Right now I am torn between Mono and Epi. For those who need pricing info:
Mono and Damier: $560
Epi: $590
Vernis: $630
Multicolore: $650

not at all, it's a nice long pocket (the one that my pointer finger is in in the picture) it has a big opening on the right and it's fairly loose so it's easy to slide bills in and out, plus I don't carry a whole lotta cash, maybe $40-$50, I keep track of everything on cards......I actually wind up keeping more receipts and stuff in that pocket. Then there's the small pocket (where my thumb is) where I keep my ID, some receipts, discount cards, stuff like that.....Bag Fetish said:
