Service timelines are significantly delayed, and pricing is well above general market rates. I have been waiting over 45 days for a belt repair that I was initially told would take 20-25 days, which is unacceptable. This has been a learning experience for me. After going to another vendor for a similar service, I had the job completed in less than 48 hours. While I've heard great things about this business, that has not been my experience.

I learned of this business from the handbag retailer who recommended it as a place that could…read morerepair my bag. The place was nice and there were no problems with the person working. However, the prices quoted to complete the requested service (handle repair on a designer bag) was significantly inflated and the time to finish the work was quoted as weeks, not days. I ultimately had the repair completed elsewhere for a fraction of the cost.

Samsonite gave me the option to bring my suitcase here in person for a manufacturer's warranty…read moreclaim instead of mailing it in, which sounded convenient in theory. In practice, walking into this place felt less like entering a repair shop and more like stumbling into the afterlife of luggage. Maybe there is a system hidden somewhere in the chaos, but the only places I have seen with comparable levels of clutter were antique stores, thrift shops, and the occasional junkyard. If your suitcase has ever wondered what comes after baggage claim, apparently this is it. The storefront is also easy to miss. The sign mainly advertises leather and shoe repair, with luggage repair seeming like a last-minute footnote. For reference, it is on the left side of the grocery store, near the end of the strip, on the corner. Helpful, because the sign is not exactly doing the heavy lifting. When I dropped off my bag, I explained the issue and the owner made a noise that strongly suggested he had already seen this movie and knew how it ended. His official response was, "we will see what they say." Sure enough, within 2-3 days I got notice that Samsonite would not cover the repair. That meant driving back out to Sandy Springs before the 14-day deadline so my suitcase would not be discarded. I cannot prove anything improper, but I definitely left with the impression that the inspection outcome was not exactly a suspense thriller. Picking up the bag was its own experience. The two employees had trouble locating it, which was not especially reassuring given the sheer volume of items stacked everywhere. I was one suggestion away from joining the search party myself. The whole scene felt like a hoarder's garage sale with a repair counter. While I was there, another customer was picking up shoes and did not sound especially thrilled with either the wait or the quality. From what I understand, this business used to be owned by someone else and operated from a different location. The previous owners retired, and based on both reputation and my experience, the service seems to have gone downhill under the current management.

LEATHER ACCESSORIES AND WESTERN WEAR…read more The Branding Iron is one of the coolest stores on the square and I don't understand why it is listed under restaurants. A correction has been requested. The owner is so cool and a great talker who is warm and engaging. I had to stop in because I love the look, feel and smell of leather and I love western stores. This store don't just carry western boots, but also riding boots, and casual styles in beautifully crafted leather. The women's western boots were very nice and had unique designs. If you are looking for quality boots like Frye, this store is a great option. . While they do have clothing options, I just focused on the leather accessories as a matter of interest. They have wonderful leather bags in various sizes and styles so if it's a bag that you need, the Branding Iron can help you. If you love the smell of leather, just step inside and take a deep breath!
