Black caviar classic mini square

Hi everyone! my mom moved out of her place on the UES and as we were packing we found a black classic mini square flap in caviar leather (SHW) in her boudoir. She said she got it years ago as a gift from my dad but never wore it. Its in flawless condition. I know they discontinued the classic mini in caviar a long time ago.

Does anyone know how much this is worth or where to sell it? I only just signed up here so if someone could direct me to a more appropriate thread? or any info would be appreciated. I see a couple listings on ebay for around 11K but since its so rare i can't find too many recent sales records for a piece in mint condition.

Best,
Dan


What a nice find! You can take a look at a few of the large online consignment places-Fashionphile and the Real Real to get an idea of value. The caviar mini's are valued higher than current mini's and it will depend upon other factors but its not worth 11k. I'm not sure if the caviar mini is coming back anytime soon, you might want to hold onto it or pass it on to another family member if your mom won't use it.

8BF3C871-AFD6-4DAE-A2EE-7CE14DA9D183.jpegHi! Anyone has this bag and can give a feedback please? I think it’s from 22p but not sure. Looking for a lightweight work bag that can fit 13 inch laptop and other daily essentials. Debating between this one and Deauville. I like that this one has a zipper, which is a big factor for me, but not sure about weight, size and practicality compare to Deauville. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
 
I purchased a vintage double flap bag in black caviar leather with 24k ghw size small a couple years ago. It’s a 20 yr old bag, but it’s in gently used condition. I received an email from the seller offering to buy back my bag. I actually never got the chance to wear it out due to the pandemic happening a few months after I got it. Just wondering what would be an acceptable offer. I believe I paid $4000 at the time.
 
ISO SA Advice!
I got the contact info for an SA at NM a week ago from a girl in a FB group. I asked the SA if she had access to my dream bag (Beige, 22S small 19 (not my photo)) and she said that she ordered it and "I havent received it yet but i should be getting it in the next two weeks". I said thank you and I appreciate you. since she said that I purchased some espadrilles from her but then I got worried that the 19 she ordered didnt have the gold CCs so I texted to ask her yesterday... she hasnt responded.

should I be worried or patient?

Thanks everyone! Hopefully I can come back soon and share my own photo with the beautiful lady.

I’d give her a couple of days. She could have a day or two off
 
Does anyone know when they stopped using textured/bumpy Caviar on the Busines affinity backpacks? Why did they stop leather lining them?
I finally got my hands on a 22P business affinity Backpack,I was so excited but the leather was so thin and flexible it wouldn’t set up by itself. I was so disappointed so I sent it back. Before that the only other one I had saw person before was from 2017 and it was leather lined and textured, it felt thick and sturdy and sat up. I didn’t buy it because it was $5000 and it had make up in it and it looked like it was dragged behind a car a few miles lol. I’m just so shocked at how it’s changed.
I ordered a 2021 from fashionphile and it sets up and the leather is real sturdy but the chain is kinked.
I do like the fashionphile one I ordered, I just wish they made them how they used to.
 
Hello I'm new here. Can anyone Authenticate this chanel bags. Thank you so much.

Hello! Someone is selling me these bags, both preloved although the Chanel one is barely used and is in excellent condition, no signs of usage or wear and tear. Chanel is Medium Classic Flap in Beige Clair (caviar leather), Series 25 (2019), selling for 3,828 USD and the seller allows installment terms (up to 12 months, zero interest). Comes with box, dust bag, authenticity card, ribbon, booklet and wiping cloth.



For the Lady Dior, it’s a 2016 model, Medium, Black, used, with minor signs of usage such as hairline stratches at the hardware but barely noticeable. She said it’s still in pristine condition. The seller is selling it for 1,914 USD with installment terms up to 6 months (zero interest). Comes with dust bag, authentication certificate and care card only.



Are the prices and the choice to pay in installments a good deal already? Please help me decide if ever I should get one of these bags and which one to get. I am also having second thoughts still due to the expense, thinking that the money can be used elsewhere — travel or saving for a rainy day. Although I have some savings in the bank and will still have savings left, the price will still subtract a big amount from my savings.

Also, what is your experience with color transfer from a Chanel caviar beige bag classic flap? Thank you.

Photos are attached.

$3828 for a medium CHANEL classic flap in beige caviar leather, plus 12 month installment without interest, sounds too good to be true.
