L.A.M.B. Wallet Dilema

[*k.stellar*]

Hi Lambies! I just got my new B&W checkerboard wallet and noticed it is really hard to open and close. It seems like the clasp keeps getting stuck I saw it pop up on Nordies website last week so I snagged it really quick now I'm wondering if I got a broken one. Has anyone had any problems with the clasp on their wallet? The closure on my Oxford is magnetic but this one has a little piece of metal on it to "lock into place" which seems to be getting stuck or something??

i think this happened to brick as well.. i remember someone has some idea how to fix it let me see if i could find it.. or maybe you could bring it to a cobbler?

I had a problem with this for the ombre checkerboard one - eventually the clasp broke and I returned it. If it's getting stuck a couple of times, it's going to get worse. The SA just gave me the glazed green clutch wallet instead. However, there're not all like that - the one I bought for my mom is perfectly fine.

So if you don't want to get it fixed - return it for another one.

Thanks! I kinda feel like for $200 it should work perfectly. I just wanted to make sure they all were'nt like this. I'm glad you said that GhstDreamer because I like it so much I was trying to convince myself it will probably start working better once I warm it up a little hahaha!

Mine worked perfectly for a long time, then it started getting stuck. I took a tiny screwdriver and adjusted that screw on the side of the clasp and it is OK now.

That's what I've done as well.

i'd try the screwdriver like mentioned, otherwise return. it seems like it can only get worse. and you're right, for $200 should be perfect.

Thanks you guys! I ended up returning it. I think I'll wait and watch on ebay for one. I thought about the screwdriver but not til after I returned it... if it's meant to be it's meant to be

Glad I saw this thread. I was just getting ready to order one from Nordstrom and thought I'd check here first. I always get the best feedback here, of course.

^glad that we could help!

This might be a stupid question but do I loosen or tighten the screw? (I tend to ask dumb questions :x) I tried loosening it but my wallet is still hard to open. I'm afraid to keep trying. Uggghh.

Edit: Ah, nevermind. I loosened it until it came out, then I put it back in. now it opens and closes a lot easier. Thank you ladies for this thread!

LOL, glad you figured it out! Mine's still a little tough to open but it definitely improved it when I loosened the screw a bit
