Is this a defect, is this normal for this Chanel item?

I noticed a diamond engraved on the zipper in Chanel mini flap. It is from 2018-2019 collection. Got it pre-loved. Please pour in your suggestions.

Thank you!!

I bought a pre-loved Black lambskin classic flap. As you can see the sides are uneven. As noted, one side has a horizontal crease where as the other is diagonal. I know this could just be due to natural wear and tear, but would this bother you? Are the sides normally identical when new?

hopefully this helps, not sure what your asking exactly but I have an idea. I just got this CF 11/11
It's starting to bother me now lol, pls ignore the jungle in the background.

storing your bags with a customized pillow helps to improve the shape. try it.

Thanks for the tip! Where do you get your custom pillows from?

DIY. get felt material from the crafts shop, sew it into pillow and stuff it.

i do believe you can get the same from etsy?

Hi All,
This is my first ever post! This Christmas I was very fortunate to receive my DREAM BAG - Medium Chanel Classic Flap in Lambskin. I noticed however that the quilting on the bottom right panel of the bag appears to have CREASING / WRINKLE on some upper sections of the quilting (although being brand new and never used). I am no Chanel expert and would really appreciate if someone can let me know if this quilting is normal? Or is this is a defect?

I am seriously considering taking this back to the store (I’m still within the 14 days and located in Australia) as this is my first Chanel and I feel like it’s not “perfect” given it cost an arm and a leg! I am aware that I can exchange or obtain a credit note - would Chanel provide a refund for an issue like this? I’ve attached a few photo’s - it’s not blaringly obvious but it is quite noticeable. Is this normal?

Thanks so much in advance fellow Chanel lovers!

There seems to be something different about this season’s lambskin, at least on the trendy CCs, which makes it very prone to wrinkling. We discussed it in a Trendy CC thread. I’m not sure if it’s affecting the classics too but I would exchange this if I were you because I’ve had lambskin flaps in previous years and they did not have this issue.

Lambskin can and will wrinkle. This is not a defect, but rather a characteristic of the leather. HOWEVER, I understand you wouldn't want that on a new purchase. I would go back and check a few out and possibly return/exchange. You should be happy with your gorgeous classic.

I believe that some imperfections and wrinkling are the characteristics of the leather and are normal. However if you are not happy with the look of the leather then return.

Hey congratulation to your beautiful holy grail bag! Wich series ist this?

i have a 28 Mini wich has a lot of wrinkles and a 29 series same like you.
Like other people say it’s a Charakteristik from the leather and skin gets/ have creases like our skin too.
I think it bothers you a lot so I would go to the boutique and make a comparison with other med flaps and take a exchange
I can send you a pic from mine later
