My gym bag zipper broke and I started shopping for a new bag. I am the frugal type so decided to stop by my dry cleaners and see if they could replace the zipper. They told me they could not but to try and shoe repair place who would have the proper equipment to do so. Naturally, I took to the Yelp community for suggestions on a good shoe repair place and located B&L.
I pass this place all the time and never really gave it much thought. (I also get my eyebrows threaded next door on occasion. See my great reviews for Sweetie's)
The gentleman that helped me was very kind and had great customer service. They also do shoe repair, luggage repair, and alterations.
Charged me $20 to repair the zipper (he opted not to replace it). $20 seemed like a bit much for me considering I paid $40 for the bag but it's also better than spending $40.
It's been a few days and the zipper seems to be like new. I'm very happy with the service.
I'll definitely at least take stuff past there for estimates in the future to give them a shot at my business!
