Ladies, I would appreciate your input. TIA

How could I clean the marks left inside (suede part) the zippered pocket of a light color vintage bag by the zipper, it shows all the zipper teeth from side to side, it is not verdigris it is just dark from rubbing, but I used suede cleaner and made no difference.
 
Im not that computer literate, and once quated someone else without knowing how I did it. Will have to have a play and try and find what Im doing wrong....its user mistake not the tablet.
So it’s the brackets [ ] my friend. Make sure your cursor is after the bracket after the final time the word quote ([/QUOTE] ) is used. Feel free to experiment with my posts. My early problem I was using a 7 in Samsun tablet (cause I am on a sofa doing this! ) and my cursor jumped all over.
With multi quotes, it’s the same idea. Get your cursor after the bracket/ quote you want to comment on, but before the next one.

I've never been able to clean that off.

You’re kind. You could have said long winded. Missed a few days here and figured I’d bang it all out at once.
You don’t have a feature that lets you select a post to quote, and when you create your post, you do not have a feature for inserting quotes , you selected? I use an iPad Air.
I just need to take care and not reply in the actual quote.
ETA, not reply
Just a word of caution. I have an Ergo Pleat

Sorry for the wrong reply here, can't delete it. My apology.

This is a Basic Bag, style #9455. It was also called a Zippered Clutch. This style was introduced in the 1970s and some of the earlier ones had a glued in serial number. Yours has the number directly stamped on the pocket and is from the 1980s.

1976 (?) booklet:

Yours appears to be in great condition and should rehab nicely!
Thank you very much for the great info.

Ahhh...Master I thank you...no wonder you are Quoting Blackbelt Champion!
So as we compose our post, when we are reply to or quoting another, they insert that extra stuff lol lol. We just have to stay out of it. If you have a jumpy cursor , you’re screwed lol.
Side note, I came in late to the age of computer technology. I am really fortunate our company CIT is a really nice guy and likes me. I have had to learn and continue to learn about a lot surrounding transmitting secure data. On occasion I have gone to him with problems only to go back to him and say “user error” and he lets out a huge laugh. I must remind him of his mom or a favorite aunt or something.
 
First of all, I'd like to say hello to everyone, new member and first time posting here. ^^ I'd like to TIA to all the helpful community members I've read through here so far (about 2 hours and still have days more to catch up on!) the willingness to share expertise is very much appreciated! I have been gifting second hand coach bags for my wife for several years for Christmas, and this year I found a few deals too good to pass up, One particular purse threw me for a loop, because I didn't know that coach was using PVC as a material, I had to ask about it in the ebay community, and was redirected here. I did a search for PVC, worn, peeling, etc but didn't find any previous mention in this thread or others. On to the pictures! Any recommendations for trying to repair this bag? All four corners were worn white, and when I purchased I only one was evidenced in the photos so I assumed it was nail polish and was likely removable, but the exterior of the bag almost seems like a vinyl coating. Thanks again for any advice!

There isn't much you can do for that. I would try to find some craft acrylic paint and paint over it. I don't know if the paint would stick to the PVC though. You might have to experiment to find a paint that would work.
 
Here is a side by side comparison of two blues: 2005 unknown blue Rambler's Legacy and my new to me 2004 Janice's Legacy, which might be federal blue. I haven't dunked the Janice yet. I never saw anything special in Janice by looking at pictures but IRL she's adorable.
Absolutely to die for!!! beautiful! now, I am on a blue quest! :love:
