Tried to take some pictures of downtown tonight. There are so many little shops but I only got a few pics.

And the Friday Night Protest. There should be another one tomorrow and tomorrow night.

The signs usually have nothing in common.
love the little historical towns....how are you feeling today Shelby?
 
Someone in my area is selling a black (night?) mattie with gold crackle flaps on FB and I'm super tempted by it.

Can anyone confirm if this is night leather and how it compares to other leathers? Screen Shot 2022-04-02 at 11.44.11 AM.png

Though actually, should I be concerned about that handle?

That is night leather, it's very nice and soft, but the handle would need to be repaired, it looks very stretched. Not a complicated fix.
I have the same combo in a MAM.
 
Thanks! The seller says is "like new"...yeah right. It does look nice otherwise, might make an offer and get a quote from a cobbler on the repair.
If both handles are stretched you can just stuff them, but if it's only one it may be longer than the other. It may or may not be noticeable? I like the night leather more than the noir!
 
Has anyone ever asked for a return and refund from ThredUP? Description said beige and bag is gray, and I want to return for a refund. I seem to remember someone on here mentioned they returned a bag to them. Just wondering if I have to jump through some hoops for a return.

thanks

I've returned one or two... don't recall it being too much of an issue. I think I used the chat function?

Seller sent another pic. Can I stuff with packing foam or something? Maybe some edgekote to keep it from splitting too soon? Or bad enough for a full replacement?

If it was mine I would just stuff it, unless you see loose stitching it should be good! I have a thread here somewhere about how to fix it.
 
Am I going crazy or did some of our recent posts get deleted? I swear I posted yesterday three times to the "RM in action thread"...

I wanted to read something here earlier and I couldn’t access the forum on any of my devices. Some error kept showing, with a message that I should try later. Maybe some system crash, and some messages disappeared?
