text: I have a couple of other Scarleton tote bags that I like quite a lot and which look expensive. This one, however, looks pretty cheap. Plus, the way it was shipped, the bag had been folded to make the tote lie flat, so now there's a seam across one side. Not sure if it'll fade with time. This is one of those situations where I'm torn between keeping it because I'm too lazy to package it back up and return it, or go through the hassle and send it back. For others who are considering purchasing this tote, I'd recommend that you pass it up and look for something else.
