How do most of you carry your GST? I typically place it on my shoulder but by the end of the day I find that it's most comfortable for me to hand carry it or on the crook on my arm. I'd love to hear from others

I always shoulder carry so my hands are free. I love how it looks on the crook of the arm, but whenever I carry it this way it swings around as I'm a fast walker!!! I don't carry a lot so mine is never heavy so it doesn't hurt my shoulder and rarely slips off.
 
I'm clinching my Chanel pearls!
Wow, has the price of repairing my GST gone way, way up!
I purchased an orange GST at Neiman's in Oct. 2012. Six months later, the corners started to peel. I brought it back for repair (which took 6 months), but it was free of charge.
The corners started peeling again in July 2015, but I put off taking it in for repair. I dropped by a Neiman's Friday and they gave me a repair price of $610!!!
They suggested that I take it to the Neiman's where I purchased it, which I did. They haven't yet given me a price, and more than likely they'll repair it for either free or a nominal fee because of the repair history and the fact that Chanel's bright-colors tend to have more problems.
But paying $610 to repair the corners is ridiculous, especially when just a couple of years ago, the repair price was about $150.
 
Do the grommets that house the straps on all GST's have the stamped Rue Cambon logo on them? Or did some of the earlier models just have plain ones? Trying to get my hands on one and I've seen some for sale with just the plain grommets.
