I feel you... once it's seen, you can't unsee. Did you try to gently clean it at all?
I rubbed my finger over it a couple of times but didn't want to do more in case it is a scratch and that could exacerbate it. I suppose I can reach out to my SA and see if she has any suggestions. :panic:

Is it a black spot or is that a shadow? If you're close to a store that have in house repair, perhaps it's an easy fix?

Definitely a spot. Whether it is a nick/scratch or some sort of mark, I am not sure though.
 
My beautiful K28 but I'm worried I'm being irrationally critical. My brand new from the boutique has a tiny spot. It looks like a scratch or just a small section of grain that didn't take the color.

Yes it's miniscule. Yes I'm probably being silly but it's bothering me.

What do you think and what would you do?

I'm very chilled and dont examine things before I buy them BUT I admit on a new bag this would bug me and I'd return it-if it bugs you now It won't stop bugging you HTH.

Bring it back to the boutique and ask for advice. If your boutique has in-house artisan or offers spa service, they will take care of it. Last winter I rubbed my B on my waxed coat and got some black waxy stains on it. My boutique cleaned it for free and I was able to pick it up the next day.

If you're like me, you can't 'unsee' it...definitely speak to your SA. It would be different if it were a 'pre-loved' K, but a brand new one should be perfect.

If it’s bothering you, take it back. Though I personally wouldn’t stress over it. You will do worse within the first 10 times of wearing it....
