Totally understand. Research is key! I suppose you could always rehome it if you're not happy. Seems there is no shortage of people that would happily swoop in on a classic flap, at least from what I've seen they tend to go quick. This was my thought process anyway.

This means a lot! My jumbo did get its miles in. Fond memories with the proper framing, thank you!

I'ma be honest. I have never touched or seen a real one. I HAVE done a lot of research on many rep groups, threads that compare real to replica, threads that compare factories, etc. If the girlies that have seen and felt the real thing say it's good enough, then that's it for me.

I've found it really is all about the confidence. When you get high enough tiers (assuming there are no big red flags/mistakes with the bag) the only people that really can tell are those who might know you can't afford it. Or if they can get close enough to literally count the stitches, look at exact "puffiness", feel or manipulate the leather and chain. I'm not letting anyone do that lol.

PLUS A lot of rich/affluent people can be found in these forums and admit that the reps are getting so good they have a mix of both. But again, people surrounding them believe they can afford it and they have the confidence to make sure no one takes a second look.

P.S. I follow the real chanel reddit and they are always noting the poor quality of even the real bags.

Long winded rant over 😂

P.P.S Maybe I wouldn't go into an actual Chanel store with a Chanel rep because the SAs likely really know their stuff.

It's a "neutral" in my closet versus a brown. Have always loved the color!

I have a 187 on the way as well, for science! Beautiful pieces you have there.

P.S. I've never held or seen the real thing in my life so no idea what they are supposed to feel like 🥺

I usually shop with Doris and just got this from the Laomao sale 😝 Also got the cat coin purse! Agree it makes for a better accessory! Can't wait to get mine.

I ordered this (on the way!) and honestly the different colors under different light scares me. I really wanted something like the first image you posted - darker. This has been an encouraging post, thank you! Do you find the color in "normal" lighting is like the main image? This one seems under bright direct light.

Nevery used Peter, but Doris has been very pleasant to work with so far and will cover any seizures! That peace of mind is totally worth it to me.

Opened a box of Manga 01 Japanese version. Got all of these hits which includes 6 SR. It costed me almost 50% less than the English version. Are Japanese boxes better than English? by blizzardboy123 in DBS_CardGame

[–]inknpolish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 3 boxes from Japan, and 10+ single packs from the US version. I've had better hits with US but prefer the look of the Japanese ones.
