Hi, how does you guys store your gabby when not in use? Keep it in the dustbag and let it stand or keep in the box and let it lie flat? I kept it standing, not sure if it’s the reason for the cease or more like the leather fold in at one of the side getting deeper? :( Does any of yours got a deep cease at the side of gabby? It wasn’t there when newly bought though.. TIA

That was my concerns too so I asked the sales lady about the crease line. She said this is the aged calfskin so it is supposed to be like that. Of course, the patent calfskin is stronger, but it's not what I chose. I haven't carried my aged calfskin Gabrielle yet, but I plan to insert it with full bubbles wraps and lay it flat during storage; however, it will sag when you put it down while carrying it anyway. I guess this is how it was designed then we just relax and enjoy it.

Yup, I’m using bag insert and bag pillow as well when storing but my bag pillow isn’t very puffy to stuff out the cease, more of just help to maintain the shape a little.
 
I got my Chanel Gabrielle a month ago from saks . From normal use and tear , got this terrible scratch on the bottom corner . Will chanel saks offer a repair on this ?

BH Chanel boutique sales lady told me they offer one year warranty; however, if the bag was not purchased at the boutique but at a department store, they require original department store receipt as proof of purchases.

This is the side dent that I’m saying about :( It seem hard to push it out back.

I told myself, Gabrielle is not Classic Flap. This is more of a casual style so its leather is designed and used this way. When it is carried over shoulders, it drops anyway. I’ve spent this much on it already, I am going to enjoy it instead of being worried [emoji1]
