Wrong CC turn lock on my first classic flap???

I have one M/L and three jumbos. My M/L has the smaller thicker CC and my jumbos all have the CC turn lock shown on your jumbo. I have never seen a M/L with a turn lock like yours. I agree that it seems they put the wrong turn lock on your bag. You should definitely exchange.
 
I don't think it's a mistake though-I have been buying Chanel for years and sometimes they make these little variations but usually it is with their shoes-exact same overall style but a little something different as they are hand made.
 
I also see a clear difference between the bags..

But I am more surprises that you were able to get a classic flap in amsterdam last friday, so do you perhaps know if they have other classic flaps in stock?
Thanks so much for your input! trust me im still in shock.. haha went all the way to Paris last weekend to find this bag, but they were sold out at ALL the 11 boutiques in Paris (crazy)..

I had no hope in Amsterdam because I called them several times with no luck. But then I decided to just go to the boutique and try my luck.. And there was just one left! All the classics are sold out at the moment in Amsterdam except for some chevron pieces..

Did u called before going to the boutique or just just went to there?

Thanks coleab5! I will definitely go to the boutique upcoming tuesday and ask them to exchange it.. I don't know how chanel works with exchanges because this is my first purchase from them.. But I hope they will see what we all see and agree to give me another bag.. :confused1::-s

wow that is crazy! did you try all the 11 boutiques in Paris? Because at least two boutiques had one Jumbo left.. one was black lambskin GHW and the other one black lambskin SHW.. and one boutique had a black chevron jumbo with brushed gold hardware.. One boutique was the one on 42 avenue montaigne and the other one was the 51 avenue montaigne.. sorry I cannot be of more help.. maybe try one last time by going to Paris if you can make it before april 8? because usually calling won't help.. i think just dropping by is more effective.. I didn't call last friday I just went to the boutique

No I have been to only 5 of them.. But since none of them had it I just stopped for hunting for it in paris.. Now I regret... Wished I had continued in the other boutiques.. Unfortunatly I cannot make it to paris before the 8th..

Thanks for all the information!!
 
Hi this is my medium and jumbo, both bought in 2014. Hope that helps. I think the larger turn lock may actually suit the jumbo quite well. With my jumbo and small turn lock, it almost seem disproportionate. ImageUploadedByPurseForum1428275993.560899.jpg
 
I can definitely see the difference, this is my m/l from 2012. I don't think it's changed much since then. I would go back to the boutique to show them.

Are you sure this might not just be a seasonal design, or a design other than the classic flap (it looks a little like the easy caviar flap, though that can't be it)? In the first picture you showed us, it looks like the interlocking C's are more oval-like than on the Jumbo. Maybe it's just the angle?? I mean, that's the only thing I can think of... Very interesting... :thinkin:
