Speak with the store manager.This the 3rd Chanel item I've ordered and all have been damaged. I'm starting to feel very discouraged. At this price point, this is unnacceptable.

It's lambskin, they're only a small surface scratches and the problem is 100% fixable. While I can see why you're upset, due to the nature of the leather this is going to happen on a daily basis if you use the bag regularly. My goodness, these sort of marks even happen when my black lambskin classic bag has been in storage so it doesn't surprise me that this happened in the post where it would get knocked around a fair bit.
You can easily buff these surface scratches out with the polishing cloth or a good leather conditioner. I use the Bally leather conditioner they sell at Bally stores, apply it to a white microfiber cloth and then use the cloth to buffer/polish the leather (never put leather conditioner directly onto the bag). The bag will look perfect
Otherwise if you can't handle this, opt for another leather finish that's less maintenance. That's all I can say really. Chanel quality is still amazing

I totally agree that lambskin is prone to this type of scuffing...but I'd feel more at ease knowing that I was the cause of the imperfection. If I'm paying for a new / first-hand Chanel I want to get it in perfect condition. If I muck it up, on my head be it; but it's not cool to pay premium for a premium product if it doesn't arrive in perfect condition.
Obviously not the same for second-hand items, but that is not the case here.
Very well said! 👍🏼 if I'm paying this kind of money, it better not be scratched up. A brand new bag shouldn't look like this. A used bag is a different story. I felt like I bought a used bag for premium price.
I agree that bags should come to us pristine. That's why it's best to see the bags in person before buying. I have been known to go to NYC (8 hour round trip) to buy bags (this is how I got my Lady Dior; I have the best SA but wasn't about to rely on pics). My boy was shipped to me (again, an almost 8 hour round trip but spread out over 2 days) but I picked it out in person and decided to buy while I was on my way home.
Bags are so important to me that I am willing to work in a mini vacation to buy them If at all possible, shop in person.
I disagree. I received a bag prior to this one that did not have scratches like this. Although, it did have other issues. A bag should not be scratched that I'm purchasing brand new, at this price point. The whole surface was covered in these scratches. This had obviously been a display model. If it's going to be scratched up, I'd like to be the one causing the scratches. I wouldn't buy a new car covered in scratches, either.
