I've purchased 7 BMak handbags in total and had returned them all. His line is a rip off. They all look nice at the start but his leather transfers color and doesn't stay as soft and smooth like it does when it is new. They wrinkle after a while. Women jumped into the bandwagon of the BMak fad but now realizes it is just another expensive fad. Now it has passed.

It's a stretch to say that the apparent decline of the B. Mak line is a "direct reflection of the health care crisis."

Yeah, I agree ...... no real connection.

Face it, folks. Given the total economy in this country and the insecurity many of us feel with the current polly tickle situation, if you're not holding back on 'wants" and saving for needs, you're a very foolish person. And the Health Care?? package is definitely part of the economy.

I have some B Mak bags that are still very nice but did buy a few lemons that I returned. His assistant (can't remember her name) had stated before that his glove leather was untreated to retain the beauty of the leather. But, as others have stated there was color transfer. On one of my bags it was when I tried cleaning a mark off the leather by very gently dabbing on a drop of water....literally a drop and the color came off.

Also, from the shoulder strap on another bag, there was color transfer on my shirt right on my shoulder after carrying it for a couple hours. Fortunately, it came out of my shirt when I washed it. I then took a microfiber towel and wiped down the strap to get rid of any excess dye that remained. It didn't leave any bare spots on the leather but never did use that bag again. Also, B Mak has been saturating the market in other countries. His bags were sold on Qvc-Italy and sold at an online department store in Australia.
