Hi all. I have a black patent ombre Bayswater that I got at the York Outlet @ 9 years ago. The piping at the side has burst and I want to repair it before selling to fund the purchase of another Mulberry. Do you recommend I go to Mulberry themselves or would I be cheaper and get just the same service elsewhere? I'm in Glasgow BTW.

I would go to Mulberry. I have had the piping repaired on a few bags and have been happy with it.

The bottom has really dropped out of the Mulberry resale market this last year or so, I wouldn't spend a lot on refurb as you might end up making a significant loss.

It's going to cost a hundred to repair. I'm happy with that and hoping I fall in love with it again.

I would only repair it with a view to keeping it, to be honest. It's a lovely bag and will always be a classic. I think you'd regret letting it go for so much less than you paid for it.
I would certainly get on the Mulberry Buy/Swap/Sell pages on Facebook and look at what the bags are selling for nowadays...it's definitely a buyer's market since Brexit.

I'm very happy with Mulberry customer service and repairs, I had piping redone on my Alexa and very happy with it.
