Report AbuseI can't leave the house without my Gucci fanny pack.
Report AbuseAnyone who can't find a bag at Kmart or Walmart needs to have their head examined. For $2600, you could feed an entire African village for a month. It's shameful, obscene, and as far as I'm concerned, sinful to spend that kind of money on a handbag, or shoes, or a dress.
Report AbuseI would not pay that kind of dough for a handbag. However I find the quality of bags you get at WalMart and K Mart are cheap and poorly constructed. The best place I have found is Target their products are inexpensive and quality construction.
Report AbuseYes, we all know that the price of these bags goes way beyond what it costs to make them. Do we REALLY think that the classis brown Louis Vuitton is really all that? I think not. It's a status thing. Face it, we buy designer bags to impress not only ourselves, but those around us.
We want everyone to know that we are carrying a crazy expensive designer bag to show off our good taste and our bank accounts (or credit card limits!).
Designer handbag companies know this, which is why they send their bags to all the "hot" actresses in hollywodd. If thier bag get photographed being carried by Gweneth Paltrow, they're golden. All of us will most certainy pay a high price for the same bag.
Yes, it's a scam, but if you don't like it, shop at Target. Their bags are dirt cheap! I prefer the Jimmy Choo type. Shallow, perhaps, but boy do I feel fabulous with it areound my arm!
Report Abuse2600 for a purse? ummmmm NO!
But I LOVE MY COACH!!
Hypocrite? Nah, there's just a really big difference between $300 and $2600!!! I am hard on purses, really. I am one of those women you see with everything from keys and wallet to makeup and an Asus eee in her purse. For me, its a matter of saving money by spending a little more. I have never had a purse that cost less than $100 last longer than a month without a hole in the liner, a strap breaking, something. The coach tote I pack for everyday was right around $300, but I have had it for a year and 3 months, had it cleaned twice, and its still in great shape!!
Report AbuseThat is so incorrect! The only fashion designers that subscribe to that pricing model are the ones that are failing financially!
