Is this a defect, is this normal for this Chanel item?

I bought a reissue and the inside lining seems to have air trapped there because it doesn't lie flat against the inside of the bag, it bubbles a bit at the sides and on the bottom as if it's not glued down properly. Is this normal? My classic wasn't like this.
 
I just read some post by Jmen regarding the "splits" in her jumbo and she mentioned that she saw a split on one of the brown patent jumbos so that got me worried. I am still not exactly sure what is meant by split ??

I started inspection mine again and noticed that there is a gap in the chain. Is this normal? I will attach a pictures...

No, that is not normal. Can you get it back to the store where you purchased it? Soon! I would try to get a new one as it can take 6 weeks to months to get it back if they send it out for repairs! I am sorry this happened to you!
 
:tdown: no that doesn't look like normal to me at all. how could they miss out on that?? bring back to where you originally purchased that bag and see if they could do an exchange for you. Based on the pic, it looks like the dark chocolate brown patent jumbo from pre-fall 08, so maybe the quantities are limited... good luck!!
 
Ugh what a pain! I love this bag and I know it's the last one at the Dallas NM. I called the SA and left a VM. I will have to go back there tomorrow. I'm so sad :(

Thanks for the quick responses

The gap was located underneath the flap so I didn't notice and before I bought it I asked her to inspect it in front of me. Said it looked perfect... :(
 
I agree - does not look as it should be...

:idea: Maybe Karl needs to stop taking pictures and start looking at these bags before they ship out - because it seems his QA people are asleep...:push:
