I would let the chanel experts look at this and let them clean it.
If you buy a bag that's preowned, will the Chanel boutique or a department store boutique fix it? I realize I would have to pay for the bag to be fixed but was wondering if it would even be accepted for repair since its preowned and I didn't purchase it from them.

shinymagpie said:I have taken a 40-50 year old scratched to bits Chanel to the boutique for fixing - there is no earthly way that I could have been the original owner. As mentioned, the focus is on the item, not the person holding it. I had that one done in the USA - they have a flat rate full refurbishment there. If you are in the USA and have it refurbished, I recommend the comprehensive repair, don't just select bits, because the rest of it will be out of keeping with the bits you tried to save money on.
Thank you!
Hi dears, trying my chance at asking u girls if any of you have experienced stains on patent Chanel leather? I live in humid Singapore and there seem to be stains which make certain areas of my black patent got not glossy anymore. Ya reckon if the peeps at Chanel refurbish leather. . I wish they have bag spa or something like Hermes,...
I recently bought a vintage (1994) maxi flap and the one of the rings attached to the flap that the chain goes through is loose. I was told the rings are held together with tiny screws. Has anyone ever have this happen to their bag? I wonder what the repair cost would be.
I'd be interested to know how much they quote, in general terms.
