AI always like reading a follow up. . .
Chris couldn't fix the broken lock so he ordered a new one. This was always a possibility and I knew it was going to look different than the original, but needed the case for our trip. I planned to send it to Ghurka, pay them stupid money, get the matching hardware plus pay for shipping, all after we got home. Chris called and said his locksmith started to replace the lock and realised he could fix the original with parts from the new one. And he did just that, for $31. This is a store I want to support.
