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

I seriously think that is nothing, if that little flaw bothers you then it will be very difficult for you to find a bag satisfy you on secondhand market :smile:
and that's a quite easy fix too (to me), but I can't tell you how to do it since you may make it worse, but you can always take it to a professional SPA does Chanel bags to have it fixed if you want it to be fixed.

P.S, it's classic line Reissue I think in North American the price is around $7,000 in store, before tax

Thank you for your honest opinion. Tbh it does bother me. I'm gonna stay out of buying second hand. Hope I'd get to sell the bag and break even.

For some reason I can‘t see the pics. Don’t lose hope. I have sold a lot of bags including Chanel on eBay as well as tradesy in the past. It’s not that hard to sell a classic style Chanel. If you sell it yourself you may break even but it will likely take more time. During the pandemic I’ve had four bags listed (A Chanel, an LV, a Chloé and a D&G) and the only bag that has sold is the Chanel. My prices are fair but not low so I know it will take time given the pandemic, but they will sell. If you don’t need the money ASAP, try to be patient and sell it yourself. Good luck to you!

I once bought an old style BV bag from the Luxury Closet (based in Dubai) because it seemed like a good deal. When I received it, I was underwhelmed and wanted to return it. I did not end up returning it because they were giving me the run around about return shipping...I wanted to send it back the cheapest way possible,but they had all sorts of issues with that. Anyway, that’s another story and lesson learned for me. Never buy anything from another country. I eventually sold it through tradesy(when they had better seller terms than they do currently) and did not lose any money. I think you’ve got to write a detailed description and take your own pics, good Pics from all angles.

Good luck to you!

I am stalking a wallet on Fashionphile which will soon be marked down. But their return policy seems unfair:

"We will gladly accept eligible returns within thirty (30) days of the purchase date. Please see our full return policy details below. Item(s) must be postmarked within thirty (30) days of the purchase date. If the return does not meet that requirement, the item will not be eligible for a refund."

Returns are accepted within 30 days of the purchase date? So if it takes two weeks after the purchase date for a buyer to receive it, you are already 2 weeks into the return policy eligibility time? Am I understanding this correctly?

Hi, I just purchased my first Chanel jumbo double flap preloved online and was surprised at how severe the slope across the top is, is this normal and is there any way to fix it?

That's a good question. I'm not sure how that works. I will need to confirm it with them.
