Oh dear, that does not bode well.
Does anybody have similar experiences with larger products? (I could see them wanting to use thinner leather on the smaller pieces, as the thick leather all the way through makes small items unwieldy ... sort of like trying to make a spice rack with 2x4's. That was actually a complaint I had about their small items in the past ... but that sort of thing obviously wouldn't go over well with briefcases and backpacks and such.)
