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

The SA had the nerve to say they don’t see anything wrong with it. But the best thing for me to return (when I asked if I could exchange). Horrible as they don’t even want To deal. Haha

I’m glad you returned it. Hope they will get the blue flap in the their next shipment. I’m on the waiting list for the classic small with ghw. Crossing my finger here lol since I have seen a lot comments here about flaws and defect on new bags.
I’m still thinking that should I keep my WOC. I’m the one who had a post about stitching issue last weekend. I asked an Chanel expert Zeko Husein (she helps Chanel lovers to authenticate bags for resell). She said I can use the lighter to burn the excess stitching to prevent any further issue. And she said it’s normal to have it like this. It’s not flaw.

Oh yea I remember! I’m actually still waiting for the return label. They’re horrible.

which wait list are you on? They should get shipment quickly. I’m actually selling mine as I got another small flap with ghw. LOL.

yeah I think I said it was excess thread. Normally you can tell if it’s a loose stitch. If you like everything about the bag keep. Stitching is not bad. But if it doesn’t bring you joy and is giving you a headache...just return.

Are you going to ship the bag back for return? I usually bring it to the store because I don’t live too far from there.
I am on the waiting list for the small black classic flap with gold hardware. I am on the waiting list for a couple months already and still waiting for the SA call me. I am thinking to contact others SA because the price is going to increase soon lol. Which color of the bag do you plan to sale?
For the wallet on chain, I like everything about it but just concerned about the stitching. If I keep the WOC, I will find a way to get rid of it lol have you heard someone burn excess thread on Chanel bag before ;) sound like I’m crazy

Is it a boutique or neimans? I got mine the other day without a waiting list snd my friend too, but I think we just got lucky.
I’ve def snipped off threads before. Maybe not burn and just snip it off!
For the return I got it from neimans CA so I’m not sure if my store will take returns, I will have to check.

Oh wow you both got so lucky! I’m on the waiting list at the Chanel boutique in my state. The SA isn’t helpful and friendly. I made deposit for it too.
I hope you can do return in store that is near you. Maybe it’s just me that I think its more secure to bring it to store for return ;)
I tried to snip off but it didn’t come off lol. By the way can you share some pictures of your small flap if it’s possible? Thank you!

Congratulations my dear! Your bag is puffy and shiny! It’s beautiful. Thank you for the picture :smile: I know not all the classic flaps are the same since they vary on the animal used. Yours are perfect!

Yes very true. It’s sad because one bag has always have some little flaw, it’s just what we can really live with. Even if the leather isn’t perfect, there’s always a worse one out there: smh.

i just now received my caramel medium classic flap and i have a question.

is this normal in classic flap chain? i’ve a black reissue, a black boy bag and a couple of WOCs, so this is my first experience with a classic flap.
