I know this is a touchy subject that I don't want to make people feel uncomfortable or judged by, so let me begin by just saying I wanted to start this thread to open a discussion on the subject. I've been noticing that it seems some individuals start purchasing Louis Vuitton (aka they get their first piece) and immediately are on the hunt for the next item they "need to have," which seems to continue for some in an almost horrifyingly rapid and extreme cycle.
I definitely understand some people may come into some extra financial benefits or similar situations that make this more of just a means to purchase items they've been wanting for quite some time, but what do you guys think of those who almost appear (to me) to get "addicted" to buying LV?
I'm a little disappointed in the way the internet has made reselling bags so easy, and personally never purchase a piece I'm not going to love and use frequently, but I know we're all different. I very much understand the appeal of buying a piece that fits your lifestyle at the moment, especially for a location you've just moved to due to climate and culture, new job, etc etc, but I feel like others are constantly buying and reselling their pieces in a never-ending cycle.
Are there any out there that can understand their reasoning for this type of style if it sounds like their purchasing habits and the appeal / appropriateness it offers you for your lifestyle individually? I truly am just curious, as I feel almost too conservative sometimes about making the choice not to buy an item I love because it just doesn't seem realistic for me. What do you guys think?
