I bought a mini rectangular flap bag last week and was my first Chanel purchase. So I had no idea regarding the process my SA registered for the 5 year warranty - I signed it with my name & email address.

this is how the plate looks like.

I’ve purchased classic woc today and it didn’t contain card but metal plate
A friend of mine purchased a mini rectangle today and she asked about warranty and was told warranty is tied with receipt for 5 years,, so basically one can still buy from reseller and claim warranty as long as they hold onto receipt.

I think that's a good point, in keeping receipt as that in a way validates the age of the bag + warranty. As far as I've seen, receipt with plate bears the corresponding plate numbers/letters.
This is unlike older ones where receipts don't really matter.

Yeah ! Looks like the purchase history will be linked to the number on the number on plate including customer who purchased the item originally ..

I wonder if Chanel would repair a bag when the code / customer’s profile name / buyer’s name on the receipt don’t match!

Does it alter how you organise your items within the bag? To those with plate in bag.

Yes, I am very cognizant of what I place up against the plate. I’m afraid it would scratch any delicate leather items. I have to flaps and keep my wallet and keys in the back slim pockets. My phone would go in the main compartment, but for now, I put it in the front pocket. I don’t use organizers in the classic flaps, but was thinking of getting one for that reason.

Thanks for the insights. That's my thoughts too. It's like we need to fuss a bit more on this bag.
Not sure if i am ready for this....
