Would you be able to tell me more about this bag? When it was available? How much? What its proper name is??

thankyou!!

Sounds like a pre-fall 08 striped reissue. You'll find the different sizes and prices in the reference library.

Post pictures of your Reissues & Reissue WoC's!

I am usually found in the LV threads....hope you don't mind me popping in here for some assistance....

I just bought my first chanel, this lovely tote from a fellow tPF'er. I was wondering if someone here could help me identify it. I found date information based on the control number 0823212, which tells me that it's from the 80's, and it was made in Italy, but other than that, I have no idea what I have here....Can anyone help based on the pictures below?

Many thanks for any help you can provide!

^^ Vintage bags don't really have names. Chanel didn't start naming their bags until recently.

Thanks very much!

Any thoughts? Not a Timeless? Not a GST? Too old to have a name?
Thank you all!

Can anyone help me with identifying this bag please? It looks like the new Maxi but the straps are different... and what a color! Please help!

(If you need a better look, I grabbed this screenshot from Forgetting Sarah Marshall - she is wearing the bag in the first scene)

This is the Coco's Croco satin east/west flap (reissue). It's from 2007, I forget what season. My personal opinion is that retail was high for a satin bag. As I recall it was in the mid $2,000 to low $3,000 range depending on size. Many of these bags (in different sizes and colors) made it to the markdowns.

looks like a vintage bronze jumbo XL. They do not still make a bag that looks exactly like this, the closest would be the new "maxi" flap bag. If you do a search you can find pictures. I have never seen a bronze XL before! I'm sure someone else can help you figure out what year it was.
