So I got a deal on a bag, and I figured I would try to be creative and sew a new lining... Yeah right.. LOL by the time I got it, my mind started racing...
I knew when I bought it the inside would have to be redone. I found out that it can take a long time to get back... So I knew I couldn't sew, and it just didn't feel right being my first bag for it not to be "All Real" so I go and find another bag, Same one that didn't need repair and bought that one. Sooooo. Now I have two of the same bag. But then I was thinking, do I really need to put the money into it to be fixed if I bought another one of the same thing? I was wondering if it would cost more to replace than what it is worth. So then I start thinking about what other things could be worth on the bag that maybe I could use as replacements at some point if something were to go bad on the good one. Like the straps, I am sure they have to be worth maybe more than what I even paid for it. It's a Petit bucket bag, and it has 2 great straps on it. Who knows I may need them one day right? Maybe a zipper? lol Idk..
Just was wondering what you may do in this situation? Keep it for a back up for parts? Or fix it?
