Back in 2007 I looked into buying a classic quilted flap, medium size. Black lambskin with GHW. It was too much for my budget but if only I had known....haha! Also, I couldn´t justify an everyday use, being quite casual in my style.
I have had a bad year (healthwise), I never got to purchase my present to myself for my promotion last year as I was hesitating between a Max Mara coat, leather boots or a handbag.
I have been lurking on Vestiaire Collective and can see that many brands lose a lot in resale value, but Chanel classic flap is at the price it was sold for 10 years ago. So I was wondering if that price (around 3000 €) should be best spent towards a brand new classic WOC or a vintage flap...And if you think it will keep some of its value the years to come despite the insane price increases it has seen this year?
I prefer black lambskin, and don´t know about Gold or silver HW? Also, I haven´t contacted any store, is there a waiting list usually for the WOC ? When do they release new season? (it´s only silver HW right now)
side note : I am so afraid of counterfeit and all....
