<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 143195, member: 37"]I think all that lacing on the edges would have to be un-done to be able to put a new zipper in. The old zipper would also have to be ripped out. Once apart, a shoe repair place could probably sew a new zipper in. It would then need to be reassembled. A lot of labor involved but not all that hard to do. Unfortunately, once done, it would not be worth the investment in time and money. In this market, I would be lucky to get $20.00 for it. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /> Ebay sales seem to mostly bear this out with just a few selling for more.......</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=hand%20tooled%20leather%20clutch%20purse&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=hand%20tooled%20leather%20clutch%20purse&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=hand tooled leather clutch purse&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
