I purchased a flo pink nano from Kirna today and it was $1650.
this is the problem as far as I'm concerned -- they're raising prices, but lowering the quality. The original luggage bags were lined with leather or suede and the exterior leather was thick and luxurious. I'm not a fan of the drummed leather at all, and think it's a lower quality than the smooth or textured calf. And don't even get me started on the PL lining -- Sure, it may make the bag weigh less, but than leave the price alone, don't raise it $400+ and use lower quality materials to make the same bag.I agree. Between the rapid price increases and changes in leather, I am seriously debating future purchases.
yeah, it's turning me off a little bit. I mean I understand the supply&demand or the exclusivity argument but seriously, every season? my lipstick luggage cost about $1750 6 months ago and now not even a year later, it's going to be $2300..
i'm still looking to get a triptyque and one more mini luggage and that's probably it for me.
How does a bag jump from $1600 to $2300 in 2 seasons?? GEEZ. The prices just keep bouncing around.
my SA at barneys said the price of the mini luggage is going to increase to $2400 on 1/24
But did you have it on pre-order/pay for it a while back?
I agree. Between the rapid price increases and changes in leather, I am seriously debating future purchases.
My first mini, just over a year ago, was $1600. I find it hard to stomach a 50% price increase in such a short time.
