Can the Mirror be removed?

[BleuSaphir]

Can the mirror strap can be removed from the bag? Their is a bag I really like...it from the women line, I love how this bag model has gold hardware and also come in with a aged brass hardware. And the mirror doesn't really serve a purpose for me as a guy. If not I don't mind tucking away the mirror tab.

Absolutely. It's just tied onto the bag, easy to detach. I have this bag, by the way, and love it.

Oh, good to know. Now this bag is definitely on my Bal wishlist bag to have after I save up the Bal Neo Utility bag. Which I am half way to affording the bag.

I always remove my mirror on all my bbags. It definitely can be removed.

Agree with what has been said above; the mirrors can be easily removed. However .. make sure to keep the mirror!!!! Maybe stash it in the pocket (inner/outer), so that it doesn't get misplaced.

Reason? .. if you ever decide to resell the bag, the value will be significantly less without the mirror. Most Bal enthusiasts like to have all the "pieces" intact!!

Yes this is true. I store the mirror along with the cards in individual ziplock baggies. (the sandwich size is perfect for this ) and keep them altogether stashed in a box. No risk of breaking the mirror and all the "pieces" are intact and together.

Agreed with both!

I have already thoughts of storing the mirror in the given dust bag or actually keeping it inside the exterior pocket, since I have second thoughts of actually thinking the mirror could be useful for my friends when I am on a trip with them or for myself.
And when bought, I do feel strongly that I will keep this bal years to come.
