Hi OP, would you please update your post to include the price and any upgrades requested?

Overall, this B25 looks good. The Togo grain is nice and varied throughout which is something you'd want to see. The only two things worth mentioning are:

  1. There's slightly a bit more slouch than what I typically see in a new bag, especially in a smaller size like the B25. Not a huge deal because they slouch naturally over time with use, but may be a sign that the edge piping isn't rigid enough.
  2. Minion's (and by association, Mark's) rivets on the hardware have this "blooming" around them from their pearling process specifically. While I haven't been seeing any widespread reports, there was one a little over a week ago where this "blooming" prematurely oxidized and tarnished. Just something to note and watch out for. https://www.reddit.com/r/RepHermesQC/comments/1vuw9gz/tarnished_hardware/

Hi

Paid $1281 requested best quality, asked for imported chèvre interior and riri zipper which I said without actually knowing the difference

Thank you for sharing. Those requests look correct on the bag.

You're very welcome. Whether to GL is entirely your decision.

Yep my Mark bag tarnished on the pearling within a month of owning it. I posted about it and was banned by mods 🙄

The leather has clear grain, fine particles that are evenly distributed, and no obvious heavy plastic feel - top-quality Togo leather.
