So a little over a year later and I’ve repurchased the PSM. The quality issues scared me when I first got this bag in January 2020 so I returned it. I bought a Gucci Marmont flap and the Multi Pouchette in 2020, but couldn’t stop thinking about this bag!

I went to the store to get my empreinte compact curieuse wallet fixed (melting glazing) and they gave me a store credit instead of repairing. They just so happened to have two of these in store (1 was on display).

Not the most perfect alignment, but I’m happy I got one in store. Also noticed this one doesn’t have the cut corners. Just too bad for me that the price went up from $2470 to $2690 CAD.

what did you end up doing?
 
Help..
I am 50/50 indecisive to return/exhange this PSM
Send help lol
I'd keep it.. I think I'm in the minority when I say most design flaws for the PSM don't bother me. If it was loose stitching or something was coming off already, then yes return/exchange it. If not, I really don't think it's worth it going through the trouble.. BUT that's just me! If you feel like it'll bother you and you won't be able to get used to it or accept it, I'd return/exchange it (if you're able to).

it didn't bother me tbh I didn't even notice until I started watching YouTube vid and someone one said that she has gone through 3 PSM due to misalignment & now I have been obsessing over it :sad: and through this forum I see a lot of them are misaligned so its not just mines

I went through 5 PSM’s before getting the one I have now! So I know the struggle…I expect my bag that costs 2K to be near perfection because I work so hard. But everyone has their own preferences and I totally respect that!
 
I mean, your alignment looks good to me and I would keep it but I'm not the bag's owner. I personally am not as concerned about alignment as other people, but I understand why it's important. If you are going to be upset about it, return it. I have horrible buyer's remorse so I know what it's like to hold onto something but then doubt yourself. It's best to just let it go rather than keep thinking, "ugh, why did I keep this?"

I took a picture of my reverse PSM's back for you to see. This bag is over 3(? I think? Not completely sure but it's the old version anyway) years old but this way you can see my alignment.
