I bought a very nice vintage (or, at least, that's what it looks like) flap in navy at one of the consignment stores around here (I'll post pics tomorrow). I absolutely love it! The price was awesome, too! There are a few problems with the bag though...
First, the gold closure is chipped a little and is almost silver (you can't see it unless you look very closely but it still bothers me), the corners of the bag are worn and the color is faded, and it seems that the bottom folds in half (I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that (like a Reissue) or it just broke in half (
)?).
I was wondering if any of those could be repaired? Could Chanel repair the closure (put a new one in)? Any help would be appreciated!
Also, do I have to go to a Chanel boutique or any department store that sells Chanel? Does anyone know what the price range might be?
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
