Should I return??

Yup, I see some very faint veins. Veining is totally a matter of taste, of course, and it's quite true that there is no way to pre-order a particular leather "look" and no guarantee that a more desirable-looking bag will ever come the OP's way. I have no doubt that there are Hermes VVIPs who can literally select their skins and have a bag made to their most precise and picayune specifications (I saw a few insane special, special, special orders at the Mothership--uhMAZing), but they are few and they are (mostly) not us.

with veins and no veins its all about the characteristics of the bag...i wouldn't care less...such a tiny matter....not like as if have to make a comparisons between togo and clemency.

I think your bag is beautiful just the way it is but, you have to be happy with it. I say keep it.

Honestly there are veins
I strongly believe that hermes uses this particular part of togo for so kelly for a reason

I see faint veins too. Togo can be veined or un-veined and it's all part of the characteristics of the leather.

When I got my first B in togo, I couldn't see the veins at the beginning. I thought it was clemance! But then I took photos of it and look at the photos then all of a sudden I saw a lot of veins. I really don't care either way though.

With Togo (nowadays) I only care if it is thick and neutral smelling.

I was thinking this too. OP, better do the skunk test before you decide. I'm leery of buying my first H bag, which will likely be an Halzan, because of the scent issue. I see some veining on your bag, it's actually a lovely texture.

This was exactly how I reacted when I opened the orange box ... 'Did H.com made a mistake labeling it as Togo but actually it is Clemance!' The photos help me to see the veins. Like everyone says it really matter if I love the bag or not. I am new to Hermes and this is the second Hermes bag I bought, I want to say the whole Hermes experience is so unique to me compare to other premium designer brand. This must be often refer as the 'orange slippery slope'

Thanks for reminding me. I suppose to go read up the that specific thread to see what I suppose to do if I am keeping it.

I see veining in the front and more in the back. It seems like you can see them with the photos now. I hope in your heart you know if you love the bag or not. And hope it passes the sun test if you decide to keep it.
