Does anyone know where I can have a handbag repaired? Pref Hillsborough or Town.

The strap has come out of one end on the first bag.

The other bag, the zip has broken.

I cant take them back to the shops cos there from America.

Cheers

Have you tried one of the shoe repair shops, some of those types of shops have a repair service

The Shoe repairer/ locksmith at the top end of West Street, near Varsity are pretty good with sewing straps back together. shouldn't be too expensive. I had a shoe stitiched there and it cost relatively little.

A sfor teh bag that needs the zip repairing...- It all depends what is wrong with the zip:- you might need a whole replacement new zip... could work out dear.

do you mean peters, max? thats the one with the big orange sign over the door next to GT news.

theyre really good and very helpful too- theyve rescued a couple of handbags for me already.

not sure about the zip part though- but, if you dont ask...
