An update on my gaby bb:
The new bag has arrived a few days ago, went to pick it up yesterday the boutique manager took out the new bag, and the previous bag I kept in store. The new bag had nothing wrong the the leather outside, but the shape of the base and the bag in general was not as pleasing as the 2-hole bag, the inside lining of the new bag was stained, not a little, quite stained. The handle of the new bag is lopsided, it was not symmetrical, I was horrified seeing the handle in that condition.
Anyway, I have decided to go with the 2-hole bag and be done with. I think I have gotten over about those tiny holes, and I really wanted the bag.
After seeing 3 Gaby bbs, and none is perfect, I think the QC has declined.
