You are welcome. Please keep in mind that not all products are defective and have these issues, but if you (or anyone else for that matter) decide to purchase something, I would advise it to be from a reputable seller, preferably local, who will deal with potential issues swiftly and in a satisfactory manner.
Thanks for the heads up, and even more importantly, your response. Buying from a reputable, local seller can make all the difference in the world.
But damn that blue pen is pretty.
I have a Berlin in tan that I purchased from Amazon 3 years ago. This has been a very good briefcase over the years. Plenty of room for my 15" MBP as well as my moleskin notebook and other papers. Several dividers for business cards, pens, etc. I've gotten many compliments on the appearance and quality.
Only complaints are:
- Doesn't offer a ton of padding other than what the leather provides.
- The metal zippers inside rub against the computer, and my MBP now has a worn off finish in the spot where the two meet (I just keep the computer nestled between the notebook and papers now).
- One of the D-rings for the strap totally wore through and snapped off. But this was after 3 years of daily use, so I can't complain too much, still very usable as a briefcase without the strap.
L_PhIt's "oiled leather." There are a lot of BS leather grades out there ("military grade leather"), and oiled leather seems to be a new one. I think it's a fair guess to say that at this price it's genuine leather or even the form of genuine leather called bonded leather. Personally, I'd prefer a really high quality waxed canvas or even nylon briefcase to a really cheap leather briefcase.
CloacaI completely understand your point about the leather type, however, there is 0% possibility that this bag is made of "bonded" leather- it simply wouldn't work. Bonded leather is shredded leather glued back together- the equivalent of particle-wood furniture- and it cannot be made into soft goods. It is for book covers and other semi-hard applications e.g. furniture inlays and the like. These bags are, at least, some form of a solid leather. Certainly not top or full grain, as they would certainly mention that!
IronpeddlerDepends on the dimensions of your specific 15" laptop -- please refer to the actual dimensions of the bag listed on the main page.
Both bags should fit for example a Macbook Pro 15" without a problem.
IronpeddlerI have a Berlin in tan that I purchased from Amazon 3 years ago. Can confirm that a 15" MBP fits. The zipper pocket is against the outside of the case, so one side is leather, the interior side is a canvas/fabric material, no additional padding . It should also be noted that the zipper opening is not the full width of the case, but falls about 3in short of overall width.
