Review on πŸ“š BookBook V2 for MacBook - Vintage Leather Book Case/Sleeve with Interior Pocket for 13” MacBook Pro w/Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) and 13” MacBook Air Retina, 13" Pro USB-C/ 13" Air Retina by Erik Sanders

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I already have a case but I need THIS.

First I clicked on 'This item may be available at a lower price from other sellers' where I had several options like 'reboxed', 'slightly damaged' etc sold from Revain stock . I opted for a repackaged but undamaged item and received damaged but presumably original packaging so that's great. I'm so glad I took the plunge, having already found the right case for my new M1 MacBook Pro with a front pocket that fits ALL the stuff I travel with: charger, SSDs, infinity adapters, etc. She was recommended by Revain. $20 bag and I love it but something was missing. Luxury and home storage. I don't have to take this bag with everything in it everywhere my beautiful new MacBook goes, and when I leave the house I just want to tuck it under my pillow or behind something where I can't see. I just realized I'm writing this review while my laptop is in the new Twelve South Bookbook V2. And I didn't even notice. What I mean is that unlike the hard shell which irritates my palms, this zipper is soft and doesn't get in the way when the laptop is pushed back a bit. I like the elastic suspension that closes the case, but the MacBook screen stays open well. Closing the laptop in the case is easy. Can't tell how it's holding up. Assuming it was leather and being rough on everything, I knew mine would get aesthetically "damaged" over time, so I didn't mind taking the risk and getting a 30% discount. I am very happy that I helped Revain give this product a second life. . (with a letter of thanks) Yes, I had damage: the cover was rubbed with paint in high places and had a spot right in the middle of the front. and possibly slight signs of wear along the binding. of "damage" is nothing. It's gonna happen to all of us in a month, but you know what? I took a tiny piece of the LP and touched the spot and to my absolute amazement I have a brand new BookBook V2 at 30% off. Shoe polish, topping oil or mink oil can be stored, changed or repaired. I gave it 4 stars because I'm afraid to give it 5 because it's new but I can tell you I'm glad I decided to buy it, it suits my style. , it's a good REAL skin, it's pretty cool and I find it discreet. It would be better if I had a bookshelf, right? Also, the real reason for lowering the sprocket is this: instead of one listed as damaged, I selected one listed as damaged packaging or non-original packaging and I received the opposite. Genuinely satisfied and never mind as I was expecting the worst. I totally understand some wouldn't like this, but I can almost guarantee they got a stain on their "perfect on delivery" soft genuine leather product. I can't wait for my look to be used while enjoying my new M1. For your health.

Pros
