Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any info on when the red med classic flap will arrive. I’m on reserve and asked my SA for an estimation, and she just said “soon” lol.

I wonder if we have the same SA because that’s what I was told too along with I’m guaranteed to get it when it comes in. I passed on another classic bag in March because I thought the caramel was coming and I didn’t want to mess up my quota for the month. Oh well.

Hi everyone, anyone Hong Kong based that has an SA that might be able to help with the caramel mini? I told my my SA back in January but unfortunately she got covid and hasn't responded for over a month which is very unusual. Went to 4 stores yesterday with no luck whatsoever! :(

Anyone can recommend the good size Chanel wallet for medium or mini flap bag?

Because these bags are limited in space, you are better off with a classic flap card holder or just a regular flat card holder. Unfortunately these are not considered a full wallet so if you are carrying cash, you will have to fold the bills. Hope this help!

Oh I see. Can you share with me the classic card holder design that can fit in mini & Cf medium?

thanks everyone for your advice- just a quick update on how i went!
i was told because it was over 2 weeks (it was 1 month and 1 week since purchase date) they could not do an exchange and also because it was bought overseas they really couldnt do anything to help. the only other option was to quality check the bag but the store manager said even if she sent it to the quality team, she was almost certain they would not deem it as 'defective' therefore they will unlikely change it or fix it. she advised me to store the bag with tissue paper and store flat- and said maybe the wrinkle came from the bag standing up (with the CF being top heavy and gravity taking a toll over time) and that it might help.

I decided to keep the bag because I've wanted this bag for soooo long, and to be at peace with it- accepting it fully, and to see it as a special characteristic of the bag and stored it like @protein_ kindly suggested.. i didn't really notice a difference after a few days but i decided it was fine and to just enjoy using the bag ....and then i came across a couple of youtube videos showing you could steam wrinkles out of lamskin!

i thought this couldnt be risky... but I just had to try it. I put a dust bag over the wrinkled part and put my hand under the first thin section of the bag to put pressure against on the wrinkled bit from underneath and ran the steamer over that section a few times and.....taaadaaaa the wrinkle has improved!! i am so happy. I then let it air dry and help it inside my fridge for a bit.

Either one of these will be a good fit, they do come in many colors, hardware, and leather combination depending on collection. The flap card holder (blue one) can fit a lot more with compartments inside and it also gives a classic flap look vibe. You can’t go wrong with either one of these for sure ;)
