That is so weird and sounds like overkill. AFAIK you're NOT supposed to over moisturize because the leather can't absorb it all and it'll end up being a grimy layer that attracts dirt and traps it between the layers of moisturizer.Yes it's a Nomad.

Thank you for the tip.That is so weird and sounds like overkill. AFAIK you're NOT supposed to over moisturize because the leather can't absorb it all and it'll end up being a grimy layer that attracts dirt and traps it between the layers of moisturizer.
Perhaps it was a seasonal employee who misunderstood their training.![]()
Oh no...I finally got me purse back and I'm not too happy the repairs. I don't think the leather on the strip should look like this and they left some black stuff ( I forgot the proper word for it on the metal part of my handle.
unfortunately no .Oh no...
The black stuff is edge coating.
Do you have a picture of the handle before the repair?
I went by the Coach store and they was able to get edge coating off.Oh no...

I don't know what they can do to fix it. I probably wouldn't worry about it and just try to enjoy my bag. I might complain to Macy's but I don't know if that would do any good. I've had problems with Macy's before, so much that I've pretty much stopped shopping there.Bumping up the repair thread with my recent disappointment.
I ordered the Madison model at Macy's online store and was extremely excited about it since it was my dream Coach model and I saved a couple of months to get it. Imagine one day I check Macy's and they had this model on sale, so I was quick to order it.
Long story short, I used a utility knife to open the shipping box and later found out that while opening the box I made a thin cut through the back of the bag. To say I was 'saddened' is an understatement. The cut is very very shallow and you cannot see it at all unless the leather is stretched. Since I can't see it, the bag is looking fine (the bag is gorgeous btw). But I am afraid that with time this damage will get worse and I will have a tear at this place.
I am also confident that I made this cut myself after some investigation of the packaging and my memory. Big disappointment re Macy's packaging, the bag was right under the shipping box cardboard without any buffer packaging other than a thin layer of plastic (I cut through it also). I was so angry when I found this cut, this was literally my dream purchase.
Does anyone have recommendations on what to do in this case? I wore the bag a couple of times already, so I am not sure if I can send it back to Macy's. Do you think Coach repair service would do anything about it?
