Billiumss Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Now that winter is almost here, I need to get my zipper fixed on my winter coat. The part you grab onto to pull up is missing and so is the metal clip that holds it in place. The piece that makes the teeth go together is still there and works. I love that coat and willing to spend $10 or so to get it fixed. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87GT Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Use a paper clip and fix for free. I can sell you one if you need to. I only charge 69cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no hole, the metal clip is missing thats holds the handle on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs.cos Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 you should be able to take it to anyplace that does alterations. I cant imagine it costing alot to properly fix your zipper. Usually anyplace that does dry cleaning also does alterations. (i wouldnt go to a chain place, maybe some small mom and pop place run by an asian family will be the best prices) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Brian Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 jo-ann fabrics sells zippers, but you'll need a girlfriend/mother to sew it on for you. If you know how to sew I'm punching you in the dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
