Hi people,

I am new to this website so bear with me here please. I actually needed some good advice. I am going to get a designer bag (actually I only have a limit of under $1000 to get it) but I am still confused which one to get. Should I go ahead and get the LV (MONTORGUEIL GM) or should I go ahead and get 2 or more GUCCI handbags at the outlet store? Please help me decide. I will really appreciate it. My first designer handbags were Dooney, Calvin Klein, Elliot Lucca so I really wanna try a premium designer bags this time. Thank you very much guys...

It depends on which Gucci bags and what you want to use the bags for... But at the end of the day, get the bag(s) that you love otherwise you won't really use it and wish you got the other bag(s).

PS This should question should be posted in maybe Handbags & Purses or LV?

^^Yes, this will be moved to one of the shopping forums (not by me though).

Buy whatever you love and just have to have. I know sometimes I could buy 5 bags that I like alot for the price of 1 bag that I'm seriously over the top about. I guess it just depends on how much of bag switcher you are. I get used to using one purse and hate switching bag to bag (unless it's evening of course) so I go for just one real good one instead of a couple ok ones. Just my Opinion. Happy shopping!

I was extremely happy when I got my first designer bag and it was LV (Saleya PM).
When I was deciding which bag to pick I also was looking at Gucci (Signoria tote), but after I read some posts that people who work for Gucci are getting corporate discounts around 75% I decided to go with LV.
I don't really believe in "generous" corporate policy. And I would never believe that Gucci may sell their stuff at their loss EVEN to their own employees. So, I assumed, that their product is not THAT qualified as it's supposed to be.

I was pretty happy, when signoria tote was put on sale in a month or two and was more than 50% off whereas LV is the only designer that never discounts anything!
