Tory Burch Bag Peeling After Short Use

I bought a bag from a Tory Burch store, assuming it was crafted from genuine leather. The salesperson assured me that it was real leather, but unfortunately, the bag started to peel after a short while. I can't believe how let down and surprised I am. I'm a 65-year-old lady and I splurged a ton of cash on this bag. I just used it every now and then, not on a daily basis. I reckon I won't be purchasing any more items from this brand. I want my money back.
