Peter, About 6 years ago my local shoe/leather guy did a wonderful job on the ERC for my 3.5 - he even made a new strap and incorporated the Rollei scissor ends. The whole case was re-stitched with nylon thread which he assured me would last my lifetime.

One side has completely separated from the back and the other side is missing a good bit of the stitching. My local shoe repair guy won't touch it. Any suggestions, or is there someone who makes new cases for a reasonable price?
