Has anybody had their magnetic closure break on them? I have a Sophia and rarely use it. The one time I bring it with me on a trip, the magnetic closure part broke. One side of it completly came off. Luckily, it was stuck to the other magnetic part. I was able to stick the prongs back in the hole however, it came off again and I had to search for 20 minutes on the street looking for this magnetic part! Went directly to the MJ store and they said they will fix it but since I didn't live in the area, will have to make a trip to my local MJ store. They better not charge. But wondering if anybody has had any experience with this issue?
 
urghhh that's annoying!! sometimes i'm scared that the leather will rip out when i open bags with the magnetic closure... my sophia closure seems to be a VERY STRONG one==P

HOpe it gets fixed soon!! let us know if they charge you?
 
Thanks everyone! I called the MJ store in San Francisco and they asked if I had bought it a MJ store (which I did). If they are able to locate the purchase in their system, it sounded like the repairs would be taken care of but it would take about 6 weeks to repair cause they would send it to NY. Thats a long time!

I'm just bummed cause I rarely use the bag and I guess its not a common problem. I guess I got a "lemon." But, I still love my bag! Thanks everyone for the input.
