CHANEL CHIT CHAT Thread!

Hi all! I have a vintage lambskin Chanel M/L classic flap in black that I'd like to take back to Chanel for some treatments/spa. There are some scuffs on the corner of the bag and overall could use some pampering! Does anyone know roughly how much this costs if I were to take it to a Chanel store, and how long it takes? Thanks in advance!

Hello, Chanel no longer services bags that are older than five years old. You can send it to an outside spa service such as a Leather Surgeons. You can find their website online, send them some photos and what you would like done and they will email you back with a quote.

Bummer but thanks so much! Have you personally dealt with Leather Surgeons? What're your experiences w them?
 
Dearest chanel lovers,
Is it peeling off? Or normal?
If yes, is anything i can do for fix this?
Or just straight to the store to repair?

This is caviar leather #27, using this 3 times. Actually, I love this caviar quality. puffy, not too shiny. until i saw this :sad:

Thanks in any advice :*

Hi there ,
Sorry if this is an in appropriate question for this thread but wasn't sure exactly where to post. Im interested in buying a pre-loved Chanel boy but am so cautious about the super fakes. Any recommendations or personal experiences for good online used bags? Many thanks in advance

Sorry to hear that. Can you tell us what happened?

So first, I went there around 12. 30-12.45 upon arriving this male SA took my name and put it down in his iPad. He said waiting time is 20 minutes. It was okay. Me and my partner were willing to wait 20 minutes because I have every intention of buying a Chanel bag that I saw on their display - - which I have been searching for a while. You know how hard it is to find the right bag. . So we waited. We saw a couple coming in a few minutes after us. Now this is where it gets interesting.. the Male SA (who took our names) was already ushering them to another SA who just finished a customer. The couple only waited 5-10 minutes after they walk in to be served. We let it slide because I was determined to get that bag. More than 20 minutes past, another lady came in.. And AGAIN. She was entertained first by the male SA. Now we where waiting more than 30 minutes now. I decided to just slowly walk out. I am not having it being passed by twice. I didn't believe at first that Chanel SAs can be discriminating by looks but ly experience proved otherwise. So disheartened by Chanel

Hi All,

Do any of you know if this comes in other colors?

TIA

I would call the boutique immediately!
Hey! I did and they couldn’t find the card. They assured me that it shouldn’t cause any issues for me and no other stores have the bag. It was a tote in caviar. I decided to exchange for a smooth calfskin that did have the authenticity card. I wanted caviar for the durability but I do prefer smooth for aesthetics so it was fine for me to exchange. Thanks for the suggestion! I just felt like maybe it was a used bag someone returned since I also found what appeared to be crumbs inside when I was using my phone flashlight to try to see if the card was hiding from Me.
