Chanel’s Rise & STALL: Defects, Difficulties & Deflection (formerly the 19 tote saga thread)

[calypsodc]

My Caviar WOC purchased two years ago already has a loose thread on part of the quilting and I don’t even use it that much. Definitely feel the quality isn’t what it used to be

Wrong order

I Should Coco: Doo-dah and the Plasificatvion of Luxury

Like the idea but also feels like self-sabotage.

Isn't that what it is?

I totally get what you’re saying, and I agree. I know people who want to own luxury items just because of the brand/name, but actually know nothing of the history of the brand; which is okay, I suppose. But, what’s worse, is they know nothing of the material or truly anything about the quality of the item - again, they just go by the name. I, on the other hand, like to know as much as possible about what I’m buying. It’s so important to be as informed as possible, especially when spending thousands of dollars on things.

I have enjoyed this thread - and have enjoyed reading your opinions!

Is there any way to quantify bad-quality years, or is it just too variable based on season, material, etc.? Fashionphile will tacitly acknowledge that the several years from roughly 2015 (?) were iffy. May just be so for CFs...?

My 19 family. I got them in lamb, haven’t had any issue so far. At first I have doubt choosing between 22 and 19 tote but after try them both. 19 tote give me feeling of luxurious than 22.

19 tote is so much better looking than the 22, imo!

So any updates on the Chanel 19 dissection?

Wow this is crazy and ridiculous!! I would contact your SA and see what your options are especially since it’s still a new bag.

I just asked my SA. She told me to bring it in and they will fix it, which will take one month

I’m so sorry this happened to you!! I would express huge disappointment with the SA and ask for some sort of compensation; especially since you just got the bag recently, a handle just completely falling out like this is totally unacceptable. I hope they will compensate you somehow.

Do you think I should go in and talk to my SA again and ask if they could replace it?

 

[Kuschelnudde]

I was shocked by your pictures and I guess you should ask for exchanging the bag. Making you wait for a month is ridiculous.

I sent her a message and asked if I could exchange the bag amd she said no, it can only be repaired.
