My much-anticipated Dark Grey 227 arrived yesterday from Bergdorf Goodman - but unfortunately I'm a bit disappointed. The bag was wrapped up/packaged nicely - but its dustbag seemed pretty well - dusty (lol) and isn't even big enough to hold the entire bag. I thought I've seen pics of lovely white Chanel dustbags that I assume are larger (or not). Did not even think to ask for one. Anyways, I would think the point of a dustbag is to protect the bag - and if it doesn't cover the entire bag that seems a bit pointless.
The bag itself is a gorgeous color - I do like the dark grey! It is quite dark and has dark blue undertones.
But ... I noticed a small white dot on the bag - at first I thought it was a speck of dust, but turns out it is like a scratch (I think?) and there is no dye on that tiny bit. Am I just being way too picky - or is this part of the distressed leather (though I don't think so)? But I don't feel that great if I paid $4700 for a bag and I feel that there is a 'defect' - though a really tiny one.
Anyways, I think if I don't feel totally happy with this bag, I need to send it back. Not sure how much it will cost to send it back insured for $4700!
