Medium (10”), I offered to pay $1,850 for it. The seller listed the bag at $2,100.
Is this a defect, is this normal for this Chanel item?

The pics look pretty “normal” to me although I’m sure opinions on tpf will vary.
Here are some pics of mine for comparison. Similar specs to yours only it’s a 4 series. I paid just shy of $2500. It came with a dustbag and authenticity card.

I’ve been on the hunt for a beige classic m/l with ghw. I finally found one from 2019 and immediately put it on layaway. Prior to Checking out and making my deposit, I viewed all photos and read the description that it is in excellent condition with wear on the turn lock. So I checked out immediately as this bag is hard to come by. An hour after I checked out, I got too excited so I went back to view all the photos again. This Time I zoomed in and that’s when I noticed the stretched stitching on the corners. I don’t own a classic, I only have one Chanel for now which is the boy bag so I don’t know if this is “normal” but I was comparing photos to other bags that have sold and I did not see this on other bags. I’m afraid that I won’t love the bag and I can’t get a refund since I put it on layaway. I can only get a store credit minus 10%. Its only been hours and I can’t stop staring at the photos. Am I overreacting?
Good to know. Makes Me feel much better about this purchase. Thank you for your reply.
All my caviar bags from the Chanel boutique have those stitching on those pressure zones. On a side note that bag looks like it's in great condition
Is it normal wear? Will it stretch out more to the point that the leather peels? This bad is made in 2019 but it’s in excellent condition.
It's not normal "wear" per se, it's just because the leather pieces are bound tightly by the threads. If you don't overstuff your bag, it won't get any "worse." I don't think the leather peels because of that.
This isn't 'wear' but how it is stitched. This bag looks normal and I don't think you will experience peeling issues. However, in the past and can't remember which collection, a # of tpf members did not comment about the caviar peeling but it had to do with that batch. Enjoy your bag, it is a lovely!
Thank you for your reply. I am now getting excited. Can’t wait to receive it
Please post your reveal pics and if you are comfortable post pics with you carrying your new bag!
