No, I tried several times. I'm not sure what happened, I think maybe my jacket zipper caught it. But I can feel the scratch with my nail so I don't think it's superficial enough to buff out. I tried a dab of Cadillac conditioner with a cloth too to see if that would help but it didn't really. I'm thinking of buying the leather restoring pen from Harvedeluxe to at least color it in so it's not so visible. I got this as "beater" micro bag to use and abuse so I'm not tooooo upset, but it does suck that I nicked it on the first outing lol.
Sounds like something I would do - my engagement ring is forever pulling threads or scratching my car!! I haven't heard of the leather restoring pen but it sounds amazing. I'm considering a lambskin caramel flap but the delicate leather is what's making me pause.

Yea, I would be worried about dinging it since they're bigger. I do have a mini flap in lambskin and have used it a few times without issues though. But then again, I have a caviar woc and have nicked the edges twice already. I'm not sure why I keep dinging my Chanels when my other bags are perfectly fine and I don't fuss over them at all :hrmm::panic:
 
Can you buff it out with a cloth or your finger?
SOOO I was examining and rubbing the scratch again last night because it looked like something was peeling and I was worried it was the edge of the leather and it turns out the scratch was just a string of glue! After it peeled off there is a slight indent where the glue was laying on the leather, but there is no cut into the leather and after a few hours I can hardly tell it was ever there. Very strange because both me and my boyfriend spent a long time looking over the bag for scratches in the store and there was no glue then, so I wonder how it suddenly appeared. I'm so happy it turned out to be a false alarm though :panic: :nuts:
