It has finally arrived! Thank to those on here who encouraged me that DA can be a bit carefree and reassures me on color transfer.

quick question- bag was made 11th week of 2020 and the sides are uneven as far as the squares matching up. Should I be concerned as it is not in the past few weeks and the alignment??

Hi!

After a few weeks of hunting down the Palm Springs Mini in monogram, I finally was able to get my hands on one!

After some inspection, I noticed that the top of the bag puckers up and it does not feel smooth when I run my fingers over it. I also noticed that the stitching on the right side of the bag is uneven when compared to the left.

I am currently talking to my SA and she has forwarded my pictures to their quality experts. If it turns out they I am unable to exchange for a new one, do you think it’s bad enough that I should just return it?

Thanks!

Beautiful bag!
The data code it's not a problem for me and you shouldn't worry about
About the alignment if it's bother you exchange for a different one.
Neverfull often don't match on the side, but you have to be happy with your purchase !
I took her for a spin (as much as can be done under circumstances) Starbucks drive thru and a pharmacy. Love the bag and was over the misalignment within moments. I checked my mono NF PM and it is similar on one side.

Both those issues would bother me and I would return it. The pucker may be ok if a little bit of heat was able to smooth it out. But the stitch is clearly because the worker did not sew the edging evenly and ended up too close to the edge then tried to correct it. I would want my stitches to be straight if I'm paying so much.

It's hard to have a "perfect" alignment with the NF because of its overall shape, which of course is wider at the top than it is at the bottom as opposed to completely vertical (i.e. Sac Plat). I've seen some bags which are really good and then there's others that could trip even the hardiest of OCD's, but yours looks really good overall and I'm happy to hear that you are in love with the bag.

The stitching wouldn’t bother me but that puckering would.

Hi there! I purchased this PSM in April and noticed that the fleurs do not line up from the top half of the bag to the front pocket (circled in photo below). Would this bother you? Is it worth returning and trying again? Thanks in advance :)

My monogram Neverfull doesn’t match either. It was made 7th week of 2020. Doesn’t bother me but I know some people prefer it be aligned.
