(NOTE:  This is a review, not a guide.  I spent 30 minutes or more trying to write a review and eBay's directions are difficult to follow.  I apologize, but it is important to me that my disappointment in this new product be known before someone pays good money for something I consider "bad.")

To all Vera Bradley lovers and collectors, the new "Laptop Case" which is, supposedly, replacing the "Metro" is nothing but, bluntly spoken:  "A PIECE OF JUNK!"  I certainly hope it is not stamped with "Made in USA" anywhere near it because it is not fit to be called a Vera Bradley!  You can hurry and purchase the Metro from the VB on-line store for $60 (down from MSRP of $80), after that you will pay way more than $80 if you want the best.  The $38 price of the "new and improved?" Laptop Case should be more like $3.80, and even then I would not buy one!  Do your own comparison of the two and make-up your review.  If you disagree, that is all right because we are still in America, I hope!
