Can anyone else confirm whether their one is like this too? The right knob/button has a gap between the cone shaped bit and the metal plate beneath. TIA!
Mine (from the 12th week of 2016) has small gaps like that underneath both buttons. I wouldn't have noticed them, though, hadn't I read your question and checked. To me, this doesn't look like a fault. The gaps are wide enough that I can stick a business card in between, but not a credit card.

Hi ladies,

I'm in a dilemma at the moment about my recently purchased pochette metis. After looking at other posts on this thread I'm wondering if my bag has some defects.
First of all, if you look at my photos, the middle compartment seems to be bulging out a bit more than what I've seen in other pochette metis bags. Is this normal or do you think it's sagging more than usual? I haven't even used this bag yet so it isn't from carrying anything heavy in the compartment. The bulge also makes it difficult to keep the bag upright.
Secondly, the S-lock cone on the R side seems to be even more detached from the main plate than the L side cone which makes it look uneven. Do you think these are valid considerations to return the bag? Any input would be much appreciated!

Can't open your pics. But in regards to the s lock, it's normal. Mine is the same and it doesn't bother me.

I think your bag looks normal. Put your usual stuff inside the bag and then try keeping it upright.
