Me too!!!

My made in France experience in general aren't very good

dry and dull caviar or soft caviar

Or bottom not glued down




For some reason I prefer buying Chanel that is made in Italy compared to France. I found a lot of problems with the WOC I purchased that was made in France. The interior was rough, threads were loose and there was a missing stitch on the WOC that was made in France. I took it back to Chanel and they exchanged it with the WOC that was made in Italy and the workmanship compared to the WOC made in France was completely different, where the interior was much more neat. As much as I wanted my Chanel WOC to be made in France (for some odd reason) I think I'll be considering more Chanel pieces from Italy. Any input?
 
Haven gotten any products made in France yet, but looking at the discussion, felt really lucky that my CF is made in Italy =) I might have not pulled the trigger if it was made in france and will feel damn disappointed leaving the boutique empty handed!
 
This is good to know [emoji2] both my bags, Woc & Boy are Made in Italy which looks perfect to me & I bought them brand new, My Jumbo Black Kelly in Lamb is Made in France but it's Vintage & I'm glad it's also perfect.
 
Sorry to bump this thread, but had a question about jumbos. Is it true that the classic jumbos are all made in italy now? Has anyone bought a recent jumbo that is made in france?
 
Now these days from what I have seen online most of the Chanel bags/WOC are made in Italy which is why I was surprised when I got my classic flap from BG that was Made in France. This is my first MIF Chanel bag, the caviar is really gorgeous dark black and shiny, it smells wonderful! I guess I lucked out with mine.
