C only challenges B in the price category. In the quality category C is no match for H.

If the buyers are stupid enough to pay theses prices the game of all these luxury labels will go on….

NONE!!!

There is absolutely NO WAY I’d pay that price for a Chanel! The quality, style, and desire is 100% lacking

I'd add you're paying for the Chanel brand, that's a selling point.

I’d argue for most the true cost of an H bag is hidden so Chanel has room to grow. I’m here for the 20k classic flap. Go go gadget price increase!

Yeah no! I know bags…but there’s nothing about Chanel to me that’s enticing! I know it is to some, but I’m about quality, style, and ummm NOT Nazi supporting Coco founders soooo….yeah like I said it’s a 100% no

Are they including the ridiculous prespend at Hermes , let alone all the games?

 

[fairylady]

I second the pre-spend at H and also the uncertainty of getting their QB. Chanel is straightforward and that’s how I like it. No baits, no game.

Totally different shopping styles and bag styles.

I do get people feeling bad for a minute when there's a rise in luxury prices. I also get when there's comparison between brands price, quality or so. But why saying someone is ridiculous or stupid if she/he is purchasing a certain brand ? If you don't want to buy a Chanel bag or don't have the money to do so : good for you, no one is forcing you, dears. I am honestly wondering why being rude and judgmental ? We are on a purse forum. Litteraly everyone here buy very expensive purses xD. It's so hilarious, it's blowing my mind.

I’m sorry this is ridiculous…Chanel was expensive back then and now every is over inflated of brand perception.

Agree! After pre-spending so much $$$$, then have to wait for them to ’offer’ me a bag to buy!

Chanel may be increasing the price but not the quality... unless they are switching to palladium and returning to real gold hardware.

Oh why did this get moved to the Chanel section? It's gonna have more Chanel fans than Hermès
