Congrats, it's a beauty
As for the lock: I put it on the handle (--> pic)... I have an older Mono Speedy and the hole got really big and I don't like the look of it
Not sure how it's w/ the Damier tab
You are very welcome. I don't think there has much difference between made in USA and made in France. For me I was just trying to find IF there had one made in France which they just had one.
The one looking roughly made in USA I guess is just by chance. I truly believe they have more perfect Damier Speedy 30 made in USA in stock as long as you insist to check in detail.
Lisa and CK21 - thank you again!
I was always under the impression that the MIF ones were better quality, as it seems as if all the complaints on tPF regarding Damier's with bleeding linings had to do with Made in USA ones.
In any case, I'll be sure to inspect my Speedy 30 with due care when I go to purchase it. I'm a bit embarassed to bring a white cloth with me and rub it against the lining to see if it'll bleed though...
