Closing Down run-out sale of our last remaining Chelsea - genuine Saffiano leather bi-fold leather wallets, were retailing for $79 plus postage. These are a great durable wallet that stand the test of time and are going at cost price.
This deal is only for blank wallets, these do not offer initials/embossing, just the HB logo embossed inside.
Great gift idea!
I feel so lucky that you're looking out for all of us jv.

Yeah.. the word "Genuine" in Genuine leather does not indicate the authenticity of the leather but rather the grade of leather.
Genuine leather - lowest quality
Top-grain leather - middle-of-the-road quality
Full-grain leather - highest-quality
Have no idea whats "genuine Saffiano leather" is but i think "Saffiano leather" is a pattern and could be real or fake leather.
Authentic Faux Leather, From Only The Best Hand-Raised, Grain-Fed Fauxs
That's such a relief, us old folk had to survive a life of grain-fed(weetbix) foes.
Problem is that everyone thinks "genuine leather" means proper leather. In reality it means like a thin veneer of leather, yet people will still describe proper leather as being "genuine leather" anyway. You can't rely on "genuine leather" alone to be an indicator of bad quality. Someone could sell a full grain highest quality leather couch on Gumtree and describe it as genuine leather, because to the layman that's what genuine leather is. So the little shop that orders a dozen in a month, whoever enters it into the product description might call it genuine leather.
I think you're right in your assessment that 'genuine leather' is thrown around for junk leather. What we mean is that these wallets are not 'bonded leather' which is the lowest grain of leather used as the base, then it's overlaid by the veneer and after minimal use, starts to peel. There's a full section on our website declaring the leathers we use and you're welcome to cross reference that with other reliable content elsewhere on the web.
You're on the right track huu but there's trade offs in durability - Full and top grain are very supple but not the best material for wallets as they can scuff easily and don't last. What we try to infer by using 'genuine leather' is that these are not 'bonded leather' or glued on leather.
I'm no leather expert, but judging by the pix, these look pretty faux to me
There's better high res pics on our website. These are not fake and if you're in Brisbane, you're welcome to check out our physical warehouse at Unit 8/62 Bishop St, Kelvin Grove

We're still here!
Thanks for the comments of caution guys. Helps to protect OzB from exploitation.
Why do so few wallets have a coin pocket nowadays? Where do people put their coins?
we agree! we used to sell them a few years ago but they didn't sell….
Hey Guys - OP here, we're still alive and active and no, these are not fake leather. Saffiano refers to the texture pressed into the leather and these are made from proper cow leather, as all our other products.
All current orders are being processed today and we only have around 50 wallets left.
How much do you normally sells these for?
