This is just crazy that we have to hunt around for a decent looking bag now!! I would expect some minor problems from outlet bags from time to time but not brand new bags at retail!

I'm now trying to decide if I can live with my Brooklyn already scratched up, keep hunting for a good one, or give up entirely and hope something else will come out in purple iris.

Agreed! When I was at the local Macys for the MOD sale, I had the SA pull out all of her stock in the natural dooney flo satchel (sorry for the OT) but the point is the same. One bag was in such bad shape, I mean almost like the poor thing was run over by a truck bad, I was amazed she brought it out to show me. I said something about this $400 bag looking so crappy & she just shrugged. Forget about the outlets, the fp retail stores obviously have zero quality control. Sad.

I ordered a black onyx clutch a few months ago. It was scratched up pretty badly when it arrived. I returned it and ordered another one. In the meantime, my local FP store put the clearly, very scratched one out on the floor. I saw it the next time I was in there and the only reason I knew it was mine was because of the very distinct markings it had on it. It just amazes me that nobody in the company cares about the quality of $300 + bags and then they wonder why they have to close stores. Meanwhile, more on topic, OP, I ended up returning my Loganberry Brooklyn, not once, but twice because they both were so flawed.

Well I take what I said back. After further inspection I found 2 scratches on the purple iris. I guess I'll be replacing this one :( Why is it so hard to get a new bag with no scratches or marks! Lol

I think with all this bad news on the Brooklyn I will return my current one and stop my search for one in good shape. I just really hope something else comes out in this beautiful color with silver toned hardware. If I ever get lucky enough to find a Brooklyn at 50% off or something I will probably buy it though because it is so cute; just not worth it at full price or 25% off though.

That's great news!! Was it shipped from a store or from a warehouse still all packed up nice? The 2 I ordered shipped from stores and were obviously handled a lot. Macy's might think I'm nuts if I order yet another. I returned 1 already but the other is still in my closet because I haven't had time to stop by the mall yet.

It was shipped from a store. I was nervous when I opened the box because it was just in a plastic bag. I guess I got lucky because it looks like it was never touched. I spent about 10 minutes inspecting it too, lol! I say try one more time...third time's a charm, right?!
