What do you say when someone asks how much your bag costs?

[Kat]

The next time someone asks you how much you paid for your bag just say "More than you are willing to spend." That'll shut them up.

I don't answer. I just smirk, lol.

Sometimes I say...it was a gift...or sometimes I just say...gee..I forget....depends on who asks....either way..i hate to be asked that.

I say either I don't remember or it was a gift.

If they are family/friends I usually say someone gave it to me or why do you want to know?
If it's someone I don't know and don't feel comfortable with I say "it's a $20 fake, ain't it great?" This causes them to lose interest pretty quick.

I think I read somewhere that you are supposed to say "Why do you want to know?"

I either smile or say I don't feel comfortable talking about it.

Ebay fake, chinatown or with a very contrite expression I answered " You should never ask a woman that question" Period. Ja, Ja, Ja!!

 

[abandonedimages]

I say "Why, are you gonna pay me back?"

LOL Thats a good one! If anyone asks I'm going to use that.

I also say I don't remember or I will say my hubby bought it for me.

Today, a family member asked me how much one of my purses were. Since it wasn't a LV (I always carry lv) she wondered if it was expensive. It was another brand that wasn't too mainstream which costs 2Gs. I told her that she didn't wanna know, 3 times cause she kept repeating herself. Finally, she ended up saying a months worth of her accountant's salary... All I could do was smile because I was embrassed and didn't want to seem that I was bragging, as I am humble person.

It really depends on who is doing the asking. I never tell my MIL how much anything costs, I don't think she would ever approve. I don't want that grief. Other people.... Well, it really does depend. I'm really not one to ever brag, so I always try to just make light of anyone who would ever ask me.

i just laugh, make a moan noise, and say "you don't wanna know! wayyyy too much" =D

One time, I made the mistake of telling someone how much my bag cost. The next day people kept coming up to me saying things like "YOU SPENT HOW MUCH?" I've learned my lesson and I'm going back to my "it doesn't matter" answer. ush:

I can feel my face turning red/hot when people ask me that. It's so weird and I don't like being put on the spot. I usually say I don't remember...but then again, a lot of times people start their question with, "is that new?" If I answered yes, people gives me a weird look of "AND YOU DON'T REMEMBER HOW MUCH IT WAS?"
