Hi ladies,


After I saw many reviews I just notice that they are "Made in France." I don't see any classic bag Made in Italy like my jumbo(I bought from Saks) and rectangular mini.(from NM)

Is anything wrong with my bags for "Made in Italy" not France???

My Jumbo black caviar from bloomingdales is made in Italy. My mom's M/L black caviar is from the same store and it's made in France. My WOC was bought in Barcelona 1 month ago and it is made in France.

I have many bags, and only two of them are Made in France. The rest are Made in Italy. I think you are fine with Italy or France.

I would not however, buy anything Made in Spain. Some of the smaller accessories are now Made in Spain, and for me, I would draw the line and skip those pieces.

So before you buy even a small wallet, check where it's made if it matters to you.

I would not. Can you find I elsewhere I. Saks, NM, Nordstrom or other stores? If no, for me... I am that against it that I would pick a different style. Made in Spain should not the command such high prices. Plus. I think it hurts resale value, even if you don't intend to sell it. It should be either France or Italy.

My jumbo is made in France, so is my mini flap and timeless clutch I think. My WOCs and seasonal items are made in Italy. I don't have anything from Chanel that is made in Spain.

Just to clarify, my Jumbo and Sevruga WOC are the only 2 made in France. Mini flap, timeless clutch, CAM, ITB, Vflap, halfmoon WOC are all made in Italy.

hello, I saw a maxi lambskin which is made in Italy, one thing that makes me concern is about the hologram...is it correct that bag made in Italy has a hologram inside the pocket like this?

My card holder is Made In Spain. I didn't return it cause it doesn't have any flaw and looks good. But, I will pay attention next time I buy accessories.

Lol, maybe she works for a FAKE Chanel boutique, selling FAKE Chanel bags, so she's used to seeing them only "made in China"....

She just sounds like a spoilsport...unfortunate that she's ruining your auction when clearly she's misinformed... : (
