It’s normal. I would be fine with it. If it bothers you, exchange or return for one that does not have that issue.
Please help my decision to purchase! Is it just me or is the right side of the flap protruding out to the right & misaligned? Maybe I’m being crazy..

I think this happens with the softer caviar on the seasonal bags. I’ve noticed something similar on my bag (the one called Coco First) on the side where my arm naturally rests on when I carry it as a shoulder bag. I see.. Do you happen to know if it’s fixable?

would be great to get your thoughts on whether this is normal or I’m just losing my mind lol!

I don't see anything wrong. What specifically are we looking for?
That’s interesting thanks for your feedback! Maybe I’m just over analysing. I had thought the quilts were misaligned and the flap protruded a little to the right
I’m one of the people who thinks this is defective. This is an example of small CFs I’ve seen in store recently where the flap is bigger than the bottom and it just looks warped. If you look at pictures online of older preloved smalls they don’t look like this. I personally would not purchase this bag for USD $8200 but if it’s extremely hard for you to get this color way and you don’t want a medium (just a couple hundred dollar difference and no such warping in new bags) then maybe it would be worth it to you. Unfortunately all the small CF in various colors I’ve seen in stores lately are warped like this. good luck!
Edit: if you look at the amount of quilting that is seen under the right side of the flap it is clearly more than the amount of quilting peeking out on the left. That means the flap is crooked imo.

Thanks so much for this- I didn’t end up purchasing because I thought the same thing!! But then I started to regret it thinking maybe I was over analysing.. even though it is hard to find this model and there is a risk of impending price increase I really want it to be perfect for the price point it is!
It might look different in person but from what I'm seeing on this photo, the stitching on the far right of the flap looks noticably misaligned with the stitching underneath the flap. I don't think that's normal
I agree with you. It looks top heavy and very uneven. It kinda looks so bad from the photo that it appears as a fake and I think if worn out in public people may assume that it’s a fake.
What do you think of this one instead from a different boutique? I dont think it looks top heavy like yesterday but any feedback welcome
Looks just like the other one to me, they all look like this
To me, this one looks better.What do you think of this one instead from a different boutique? I dont think it looks top heavy like yesterday but any feedback welcome
