Forgot to mention that the price includes shipping back and forth, authentication and it took 3 weeks between when I shipped to when they shipped

Oh wow, they did a beautiful job reshaping the lambskin
, since it must have been pretty soft to go slouchy like that.The best way to keep the new structure is to not overload your bag (with heavy things) and fully stuff it while not in use.
Congrats
Just FYI... I emailed them and asked them to refurb my bag. The response, "In all honesty, a spa treatment may not be worth the cost. We can make it look a bit better, but not all that much with the amount of wear the bag has. Those areas would feel rough as all we can do is seal and recolor them."
I purchased this bag used and I believe the previous owner had it sent out. It does have a few rough spots already. I do love it, but purchased thinking I could have it spruced up a bit.

I'm sorry! I just saw this! I will try to take a mod shot tomorrow.
It hasn't softened, but it still looks really great!

I had some very worn corners on my beige flap, and the coloring covered it up well. I'm surprised they said there wasn't much they could do. I know they've reshaped GSTs before as well.
Has anyone had their chain replaced? I'm going to send my small classic flap to have the chain replaced to a longer chain so I can wear cross body it's $85 plus shipping I would love to see photos if anyone has had this done to their bag. Thank you

I don't think anyone has responded to you, but if you email them pictures they'll respond and give you a quote. Hope that helps.
For me, once my bag was done they sent a bill by Paypal and I paid and they shipped my bag right after payment was received.
Perhaps try Leather Pros? A few of us are using them with good results. Here is the thread where we discuss it. I'm sending 3 items tomorrow.Just FYI...

That is disappointing, but it is nice of them to not try to convince you to send it if they didnt think you would love the results.
