The bag is priceless. $60 is a bargain if you ask me.

I'm curious if I can find someone to repair my old bag. I've still got my original with a broken zipper that I'm not using.

Note to anyone with a bag or obtaining a bag: Do not ever partially unzip the bag. Always unzip it fully all the way to the hilt before opening. The zipper damage I incurred was because I would only unzip it as far as one of the "corners", meaning that the zipper itself was stressed at that corner each time I used the bag. Eventually the zipper broke at the corner. The new bag has not incurred any damage, in over a year of use, since I've been unzipping it fully each time.
