question about blazer fit

I picked up a blazer today and it fits kinda well. Its a bit tight when I try to hug myself unbuttoned. When I button it though and try hugging somebody or stretch the blazer out by spreading my arms wide apart it feels like the buttons are going to pop off.

Should I return the blazer?

I'll get some pics tomorrow since there's not enough lightning to see what I'm talking about right now.

The good news is, that makes now a good time to hug someone. Although hugging can be fun when there is lots of lightning too. The risk is that the buttons might pop off.

Its cheap enough that I could keep it around as just a clubbing blazer or just never ever button it

Its basically really tight around the buttons when buttoned
