Is my flap crooked?

[Thukreebun]

Hi all

I’ve received my first Chanel mini and am in love

I’m generally tolerant of flaws on my bags but was wondering if this flap was crooked and if so whether it is acceptably so?
It’s my first purchase via mail order owing to the lockdown so I thought I would ask the experts here!

Thank you !

Yes I think it is crooked. It’s not terrible but if it’s going to bother you, I’d exchange it

I don’t see it. It’s a beautiful bag!!

Don’t see it

I can kinda see it but I really have to strain to do so...

I also see the crooked flap. Not very obvious unless you look for the “flaw”.

Thank you all!

I wasn’t sure how problematic it being slightly crooked was but I’m reassured and am glad to be keeping the bag!

Unfortunately I see it too. At the bottom corners of the flap, the "triangle" pieces aren't the same size...the one on our right (looking at it from the photo) is smaller.

took me a while to see it, I don’t think it’s a very obvious flaw though..

Actually, now that you’re saying it that the corner triangle pieces aren’t the same size, I also noticed that the lines of the stitches on the flap don’t line up with the rest of the bag... can’t believe that Chanel is selling pieces like that. SMH...

I’m getting very varied responses on this bag!
Should i be returning it ?

I can see it but have to really staring at it. It wouldn't bother me personally but if you're not happy with it you should return it. Loose stitching bothers me more and I don't see any on your bag. Good luck deciding!
