It's called the Jumbo size and current retail price (as far as I know) of a caviar Jumbo flap is $2650 and $100 more for lambskin.

Why the urgency, if you don't mind me asking?

You need to be a little bit more patient, as not everyone who collected 5XXXXXX series at the time are online. With that said, I remember it was around $1475 for caviar and $100 more for lambskin. Then it went uphill from there.

the reason is someone wans to sell me for 1970USD...and gave me v little time to decide...i'm so desperate for it, sisters...sorry i was afraid no one will see my post...

do u think it is worth considering? - condition is ok...not fantastic, not very very bad, just ok...the zipper inside the bag is the older version round chanel stud type. is this design very much different from the current lambskin jumbo?

Your best bet is to post photos in the Authenticate this Chanel thread in the Chanel Shopping forum. It is really hard to assess condition and authenticity based only on written words. If you can show photos then opinions can be given on whether or not the price is fair for the condition.

i think it may be too much for a bag that's not in pristine condition. How about showing a picture of how it really looks?

same here, i feel it's too high for a vintage flap. Like Roey said, do take pics so that it's easy to see the condition of the bag!~

Even if it's in good condition, selling price is way TOO HIGH!

Way yes, too expensive. I am proud to say my black lamb w/gh is now over 20 years old and looks fantastic. Never been to the spa but it's the special occasion purse. I could, in good conscious, ask more than I paid if I were to sell it. So to ask that amount for a purse that is in less than excellent condition -- don't feed the greed machine. Keep looking and do use the authenticity folks when purchasing a pre-loved Chanel.
