What's all this I hear about the quality of leather on the new spring bags?

There have been a few recent threads of the leather on some of the new Koobas being scratched/scuffed/marked easily.

Lexie's Charlie and ViciousBliss' Bonnie, I think...
 
The leather looks worn and old in record time and that is even with babying it ... mainly on the lighter colors such as rose. A lot of people have complained about it.
