I think we also have to remember it is a leather bag, suede sides, suede inside and no python handles and tag. Alot of other designers would be charging double for that type of bag. And it remains to be seen but these were supposed to be made for a truck show and that’s it. I see some more purple are being made but most still say sold out. So they are also supposed to be limited edition. Lv charges more for limited edition as well.
