I was going to complain that this is US only but then I remembered I got Civ V for free a few weeks ago so I'll just say I'm still thankful.

I ordered a wooden Apple Watch and IPhone charging stand from them for my husband and it is beautiful and my husband loves it. I got good service and communication from them on my order, too. As a woman who has bought a few designer bags for friends and family and myself, I think their prices look fair for the quality and design that these bags seem to offer.

This is a very nice offer indeed. Thanks!

$300 is way, way, way, more than I'm willing to spend on a bag, but holy cow the Briefcase looks awesome. I don't even care that much about the full-leather, the waxed canvas and leather is awesome looking enough! (Especially with that shade of green.)
