We've had this problem in this Forum several times, it's NOT allowed.
Obviously I'm not talking about people doing it independently, I'm talking about people doing it as a group and using the term the Purse Forum in it.
We don't allow people using us as leverage, that's all.
Your comment of "we should write one big letter of complaint . . ." implies something different than you alone![]()
well, i'm not a racist when saying i dont want to pay that much for a bag made by chinese, but really upset about "made in china" instead; or made by anytype of illegal workers.
why why would they do that?
I don't think any of us are racist and it's not that we care who makes them. The point is they say made in Italy which has long been know for craftmanship and skill in making beautiful leather goods. If they are now using unskilled laborers to mass produce, obviously the quality drops dramatically. Also if they are actually made in China, they are lying to us and taking advantage of us by having the bags made in factories with deplorable working conditions that I personally, do not approve of.
These threads usually get nasty and then end up being closed. Please don't make the mods do this.
I understand that bbag fans are huge enthusiasts and no brand has a stronger bond with their carriers than Balenciaga - but let's stay calm about the issue at hand, which is poor quality control. We can have an intelligent and civilized discussion about this without pulling out the soapboxes.
That's exactly what I noticed when I took all of my bags out for new group photos. I am telling you out of 27 bags I have purchased in the past year, 18 were from 05, 2 from 04, 1 from 06, and 6 from 07. When it was just the older bags in my life I was over the moon every time a bag arrived. I would still get that thought "wow, I so get why everybody loves these bags"! Then I started buying new bags, and there was always at least one thing wrong with the bag, strap, mirror, or tassels! And that is crazy you mentioning the black spots PP!!! I had thought that was something I had gotten on at least 3 of the new bags!!! I had no clue what I was doing or where they were coming from!!! And ITA!! We all have to email, mail, call, and get a petition to send to Balenciaga ASAP!!! Oh, and besides the the extra tassels being way too light to use on my new Violet Make Up, one of the tassels on the bag is super super puffy and will not be lasting long!!!
