Chanel Unboxing Fail: Fashionphile Mistake Revealed | What Went Wrong?

[@designermama2181]

Have you ever shopped with Fashionphile? If So, what has been your experience with them?

[@comfynlux5695]

The condition should reflect everything overall so I agree with that. If there is any wear it should be listed and considered but that depends on the company’s definition of each grade. Fashionphile’s excellent used to look like new but I have noticed that has changed. Sorry the bag didn’t work out.

[@designermama2181]

Yes it sucks because I would have loved to add it to my collection. Maybe sometime in the future. Thanks for watching 🥰

You're correct, I have the same bag, brand new from store. It has aged gold hardware , some have polished hardware. I'll suggest you try to see things in person if you can. Nice unboxing 😁👏.

[@PribbenowTsu]

Love *esluxy* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other KZbinr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

[@vanessalauren1033]

this is aged gold hardwarw so it has a more tarnished look

[@designermama2181]

Thanks for sharing, I didn’t know that. 🥰

[@bhoney112]

I think you made the right decision to return the bag...the tarnishing would have continued and I dont know if hardware can be replaced. The rarings on Fashionphile have been all over the place..I recommend next time setting up time with a personal shopper so that you can confirm the quality 😊

[@designermama2181]

Yes I’m not sure what’s going on with the rating system either. But I will try a personal shopper next time. Thanks for watching 🥰

Hello! The coco handle is my favorite Chanel bag. I have a large. It’s a great bag. Sorry it did not work out. I would get it new from the boutique because this bag is not crazy expensive when compared to the classic flap. 💜

[@designermama2181]

Yes it was love at first sight for me lol. I tried to get it directly from the boutique but my SA couldn’t get the one I wanted. But it’s still on my wish list. I’m also still conflicted on which size to get. Which size do you recommend? I originally wanted the size small.

[@justelle_1]

Congrats! It’s a beautiful bag. I got mine in 2021 and my SA informed me that the previous sizes were larger so technically you have a medium if you have the 2020 small.

[@designermama2181]

Yes that was my fault for not looking at the measurements. I am going to eventually add it to my collection 🥰

[@Breonaleonard]

Hey girl!💞 to be fair, the hardware on this style bag is supposed to be an “aged gold”. So it’s not tarnished. That was the intended look for this particular hardware. You should have kept it. Especially if you got it for a steal😩 FP does a great job with their photos and descriptions! I would recommend visiting one of their stores, specifically in Cali of you’re near 😊

[@designermama2181]

Hey girl! Thanks for sharing this as I wasn’t aware of the aged gold hardware look. However, I still didn’t agree with the ranking system with FP. They didn’t fully explain it in the description and marked the bag as “excellent” condition, which I would of honestly marked as “good” condition. So to be honest, I was a bit disappointed. I still do love FP and will maybe give it another shot in the future. Thank you so much for your help and for watching 🥰

Hi dear, that sucks that fashionphile sent you that specially for the price you paid. I also love bags and have unboxing bags. thank you and TFS

[@designermama2181]

Yes I was very disappointed. Thanks for watching 🥰

[@chanellovers871]

Hi Love. I have the same bag and I love the way you love the bag, but if you're not happy, definitely find one you'll be happy with.

[@designermama2181]

Thank you for your kind words. Chanel bags are so expensive even on the second hand market. I just wish it would have been in the true “excellent” condition that it was described as. Thanks for watching 🥰

[@teevee455]

I agree with sending the bag back for the fact the handle was so wonky and leaning forward. Immediate return for me. The sizes for the Coco handle size names have changed so much that you really have to look at the measurements listed.

[@designermama2181]

Yes, I learned that the hard way. Once I opened up the box I was like wow this is bigger than expected lol. Thank you for watching 🥰

[@Michelleeew]

Beautiful 😻 Chanel

[@designermama2181]

Thank you! 😊🥰🥰

[@tangiessubtleluxuries]

I'm so sorry the Coco handle didn't work out for you. I have the Coco handle in all black, which was considered the small and now the medium. I love this handbag and purchased it new from the boutique. The Coco handle is my one and only Chanel handbag.

[@designermama2181]

Hey, I really love this bag so it’s definitely still on my wishlist. I am just going to be patient and buy it directly from the boutique. I never usually buy second hand and was so inpatient which is why I turned to FP because I couldn’t get it from the boutique. My SA called around to other Chanel’s but no luck for the color and size that I wanted. However, I’ve learned my lesson lol. Sometimes we just have to wait! Thanks for sharing and for wathcing 🥰

[@justelle_1]

Also, the tarnishing doesn’t reflect if you get the champagne hardware. That gold plated tarnishes horribly😢

[@katemiller7874]

Yes you are correct not sure why people rave about it.

[@neebieslittleluxuries]

I wonder what’s going on. I love fashionphile and have never once had a bad experience. I do ensure I look at every photo and zoom in etc. I never question the authenticity ever, but the bag description should def match the bag. I think this is a newer issue, usually fashionphile is extremely good at the descriptions. I wouldn’t say that bag is excellent but rather just good.

[@designermama2181]

I agree, I just wish they could have a better ranking system. I’ve always had pleasant experiences selling with them so I was excited to purchase from them. I’d probably still give them another try in the future. Thanks for watching 🥰

[@neebieslittleluxuries]

@@designermama2181 I agree! The system can totally be hit or miss and should be better.

[@rosemarycardenas2756]

I get it why you returned it. I would not have kept it either. I’ve been trying to add the boy bag into my collection for a while and I have decided to purchase it directly from the boutique. I just bought some slgs from the Chanel boutique this week and next week I’m getting my boy bag. I don’t trust these consignment stores. All of my bags are directly from the store. If I she’ll out thousands of dollars regardless of the savings I don’t want to have any reservations on the authenticity of the bag. I hope you find it at the boutique. That is a bag that is constantly in production.

[@designermama2181]

I agree, I always prefer to spend at the boutique over shopping second hand market. I figured I’d give it a shot but it didn’t work out. I hope you enjoy all your new Chanel items. 🥰
