yea my lambskin bought wks back from paris is made in spain too. its a red classics and i dont know it seem brighter n more intense than the classic made in france. maybe its difference batch or different coloring/leather absorption too but i love the color.
i bought lv wallet and its also made in spain but the lv manager in my country said it has a very 'dark' or intense print already (multi colored). so i stay put with it.

My WOC lambskin is made in Spain. I feel that the lambskin isn't as buttery soft as the m/l classic flap. The WOC in my store sells out so quickly that I didn't really have a choice. It was either I wanted it or I let someone else take it...so naturally...I brought it home with me. 
My small wallet in caviar is made in Spain. Spain has exceptional leather as well.

I don't think it should matter. All my items are made in France or Italy though. But even brands like Louis vuitton have products made in Spain (and USA). All of my m/l flaps are made in France (lambskin, caviar, patent) and all my jumbos (caviar) are made in Italy. I have a black caviar woc ghw purchased in 2007 that is made in France. My patent pink camellia woc from 2011 is made in Italy. I thought my pearly beige bifold yen wallet was made in France but it's actually made in Italy (along with me patent blue camellia yen wallet).

My Chanel long folio (it has a camellia on the front) is made in Spain. I can't figure out how to successfully upload a photo so I have sheepishly included a google link above! Mine is't black however. It's a pale green and I love it so much. I got mine in October 2010 in Sydney, at the Bondi Westfield.
Is there anyone else here that has the same purse? I'd be interested to hear how others are getting on. The leather on mine is starting to fleck where the cards have come into contact with it.
I took it to the Chanel store here, at the Dubai Mall, but they said as it wasn't a fault with the zip mechanism, they couldn't do anything about it. I'm really disappointed because I paid about AUS$650 for it. It's my only Chanel purchase EVER (other than cosmetics and sunglasses) and I bought it for myself as a treat after I finished all of my law exams, so it was a really special purchase for me.
On the upside, it's developing a gorgeous patina, so I don't really want to get rid of it.
Can someone suggest a quick way to upload photos? The icon above the box doesn't work for me at all.

i just got a black timeless caviar woc and was surprised to see it's made in spain too. it's actually my fault that i didn't check, for the display one that i tried on was made in france. the leather feels and looks no different from the france one, so i hope it should be ok? just a tad sad as its the first chanel i got for myself and it'd be great if it's from france
I had a timeless cc yen wallet that made in spain. Other than classic flaps which I only choose (made from) Italy, it doesn't bothers me if I receive them in brand new condition 
my black caviar yen wallet holder is made from spain also. it doesnt really bother me because i luv d wallet style & no problems with d quality 
also my sa says that chanel has factories in france, italy and spain :buttercup:

no there was a post earlier this year on it yes some of the wallet's are made in Spain.
No, it's fine. I got my wallet earlier this month and it's made in Spain too. Although I do prefer it from France or Italy. But it's not a dealbreaker for me.
